Wine Reviews
Tongue Dancer The Sly One Pinot Noir Anderson Valley 2019
See the Full BevX Featured Review Brilliant, deep ruby color. The aromatics are very intense offering scents of raspberry, black tea, and forest floor with supporting notes of hibiscus flower, graphite, a unique minerality, oak, and hints of wild mint. The palate confirms the nose delivering a red and black fruits-driven core with flavors of black cherry, five spice, mineral, and vanilla. The finish is long and lingering with ripe tannins and sweet oak tones. Medium to full-bodied and perfectly balanced with an opulent yet vibrant texture. $59 – 5 Stars/97 points
Tongue Dancer Pinot de Ville – Putnam Vineyard Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast 2019

The palate echoes the nose delivering a red and black fruits-driven core with flavors of black plum, baking spices, raspberry, and hibiscus flower. The finish is long and lingering with ripe tannins and oak accents. Full-bodied and perfectly balanced with an opulent texture. $69 – 4.5 Stars/95 points
Spirits Reviews
George Dickel 8 Years Old Bourbon Whisky
Brilliant copper to amber color. The nose is very expressive offering scents of baked apples, cherry, vanilla bean, orange peel, and accents of roasted nuts. The palate echoes the nose delivering a lush fruit and toffee-driven core with supporting notes of almond, five spice, toasted oak, and cashew butter. Full-bodied while being ideally proportioned, wearing its overproof strength well and offering bright notes of acidity that keeps this mature Bourbon vibrant. null $34 – 5 Stars
