Tasting Notes

“The Eco Terreno 2022 Estate Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon has a vibrant aromatic profile, led by red plum, wild berry bramble, black raspberry, violets, subtle hints of dried herbs, and earthy undertones of potting soil and forest floor. On the palate, the wine is juicy and succulent, with a core of bright red and lush black fruits, savory spice, and earthy characteristics balanced by fresh acidity and fine-grained tannins that carry into a pleasant, lingering finish. This wine consistently delivers a wine of place year after year with layers of subtle nuances of vintage variation that beautifully represent the terroir of the Alexander Valley, and is an outstanding value.” 94 Points, Anne Sewell Briggs, DipWSET

“The 2022 Red Wine Caton Vineyard Upper Bench Block Three Red Wine includes 10% Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend and is a deeper shade of ruby red. It’s very pretty on the nose, with cassis shining through as well as some red-fruited highlights and notes of pine, pressed flowers, and forest earth. It’s generous on the palate and has a kiss of sweet fruit, with pliant, ripe tannins and a creamy texture. It’s a charming wine to drink over the coming 7-8 years.” 92 Points, Jeb Dunnuck

“The Michael Pozzan 2024 Russian River Valley Pinot Noir opens with bright, fresh notes of rose petals, cherries, cranberries, forest floor, savory spice, and clove. On the palate, the wine has flavors of Bing cherries, strawberries, black tea, and mushrooms, finishing with crisp minerality like a gravelly pathway after a rainstorm. Friendly and approachable, this wine’s silky texture and playful demeanor inevitably lead to another glass.” 94 Points, Anne Sewell Briggs, DipWSET
