2019 Hendry Red Wine Hendry Vineyard
5/4/2024 - MJ18 Likes this wine:
Great QPR. Big napa cab style but fairly good complexity in addition to the fruit. Dark fruit, full bodies, green notes. Can taste the alcohol a bit (15.4%) but it’s not overwhelming. Ready to drink now. Fine on pop and pour but improves with air.
Easy buy if you like this style.

2019 Pierre Morey Bourgogne Blanc
4/26/2024 - MJ18 Does not like this wine:
Somewhat decent chard, though it needed a solid decant. Smelled like sharpie marker/chlorine upon opening and the wood was present the entire time. Wood was unfortunately overpowering the fruit. Improved significantly with time in the glass/decanter.
Many of the 2018 notes suggesting a chemical type nose are spot on. Would give this more time or air if opening now.
Probably wouldn’t buy again.

2019 David Moreau Santenay "Les Hates" Santenay
4/26/2024 - MJ18 Likes this wine:
Nose is ripe red fruit. Clean and straightforward. Reminds me of new world pinot (albeit from a cooler region such as Mendocino or Willamette as GSTUTZ said).
Palate is all red fruit, matching the nose but lighter than the nose would suggest. Good acidity, no tannins.
Not a complex wine but a nice and pleasant one. If you are looking for an earthy, savory, rustic burg, look elsewhere.
