Wine Reviews
Tongue Dancer Ultra Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast 2019
Brilliant, medium ruby color. The aromatics are very intense offering scents of red cherry and five spice with supporting notes of dried herbs, raspberry, wild berries, and black tea. The palate confirms the nose delivering a red and black fruits-driven core with flavors of black cherry, red currant, mineral, and subtle hints of tapenade. The finish is long and lingering with silky tannins. Medium to full-bodied and perfectly balanced with a opulent texture. $95 – 4.5 Stars/96 points
The Prisoner Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2018
Brilliant, dark ruby/purple color. The aromatics are very intense offering scents of black cherry, baking spices, and black tea with supporting notes of plum, oak, and vanilla. The palate confirms the nose delivering a red and black fruits-driven core with flavors of black fruits, cassis, violet, and coconut. The finish is long and lingering with ripe tannins. Full-bodied and nicely balanced with a opulent texture. $55 – 3.5 Stars/88 points
Spirits Reviews
George Bowman Colonial Era Dark Caribbean Rum
Brilliant, deep mahogany color. The nose is generous with rich, dried fruits, caramel, and honey with subtle accents of toasted coconut and vanilla bean with oak. The palate confirms the nose with dense flavors of molasses and brown sugar with hints of marzipan, and tannic oak, and brown spice notes. Medium to full-bodied and well-balanced with lingering sugar and spice. $29.99 – 4 Stars
