2004 Kapcsandy Family Winery
State Line Vineyard
I tasted this wine recently and found it to be an extremely well made, well balanced wine. 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40 % Merlot. Deep ruby color with hints of blueberries, chocolate, toast and licorice. Full bodied and an absolute gem of a wine. Great front, mid and back palate with a long finish. This is a wine than will go for another decade or more. $120 . If you find it the price would undoubtedly be much higher. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience of drinking this delectable liquid.

2002 Windward Pinot
Tasted this wine last night. Light fruit on the front and mid palate and then it seemd to fall off. I don’t think that this bottle would be good in another year. Could not get much of nose off of it. I was disappointed. I expected more

Just finished a bottle of Charles B. Mitchell Vineyard Sierra Foothills Reserve Zinfandel. This was a typical Amador County Zin. Berry, plum, hint of cola and spice. Good body, fruit hits you on the front and mid palate then a nice long finish. It takes me 3 days to drink a bottle of wine and this one did change and soften slightly at the third day.
