Amazing blind tasting with Jay & Holly and a group

Amazing blind tasting with Jay & Holly and a group of great people with distinguished palates.
It’s always tough when you are out on the spot to say what you think about a wine… especially when the winemaker is standing right there.
It may be even harder to make wines in a challenging vintage, and get a random group of Texans to tell him what we thought of them! He was thoughtful enough to throw a Syrah in the mix with some well made Pinot Noir!
I may have shared a few #winerhymes with a couple new friends at the end 😜. Great times!

Special wines deserve specific shout outs. Red Bou

Special wines deserve specific shout outs. Red Bourgogne (Pinot Noir) and Brunello di Montalcino (Sangiovese) were the two most significant wines to me and my wine career development and passion from the very start, circa 1999-2000.
They were the first regions I understood to make high quality dry wines, and when I tasted them I knew, “Wow, that’s great stuff!”
Producer and vintage matter. I don’t remember the ones that opened my eyes and palate, but these fine wines are sure to show any wine lover the true essence of their respective wine regions/varietals! 🎼🍷 #winetasting🍷 #wineconsultant #notablewineedutainment #notablewine #notablewineevents #finewine #brunello #bourgogne #usedtobeburgundy

Just tasted these great values with Greg from VinoVida. I love working with small distributors and vineyards… and these are some great Australian Estate wines and as far as I know they are only available here in the DFW area in the US! Cool stuff

I tasted this Nebbiolo last week and still think about it. It was one of the least expensive, most approachable, and style of Nebbiolo at the whole tasting of about 30 Piedmont wines.
Quality ✅ Value ✅ Pure ✅

Learning wine should always be fun and entertaining!
My focus is on providing the highest quality service & edutainment and when selecting wine, Quality to Value is very important to me and my entire Notable Wine philosophy. I find the best quality when there is “Truth in Farming” (a term I will attempt to coin 😉)
Hoopes started out as a family farm selling grapes before Napa became the rock star wine region it is today. Lindsay Hoopes took over the business in 2012 and introduced regenerative and bio-diverse farming practices.
The first vintage I tasted was the 2014 Oakville and I was very impressed with it, even at the $70+ price tag. The wine then took a significant price increase in our area, so I have to reevaluate. Who’s coming with me?😁
I will be keeping these bottles @ 56-60 degrees and look forward to sharing them with the right Cabernet lovers to find out if this Oakville Cab still shines next to other $100+ Napa wines.
If you don’t mind spending $100+ on amazing wine, and want to do some serious comparison tasting, follow the link in my bio or inquire with a DM! Cheers! 🎵🍷

Notable Wine Bordeaux & Burgundy Event last night

Notable Wine Bordeaux & Burgundy Event last night was a ton of fun! Here are a few highlights.
We did some fun comparisons with Burgundy and Willamette Valley, Right & Left Bank Bordeaux and Washington Cabernet, and Chablis and Sonoma Coast Chardonnay.
Great wines, rhymes, music, and good vibes were flowing all night!
I love making new friends who care about the quality of the wines they drink. You don’t always have to spend a lot of money for quality wine, you just need to know where to find them!

This was an amazing deal I found a few months ago, and finally had the chance to try it.
I was concerned about how it was stored and didn’t have much hope for it when I first popped it. The color seemed a bit off, but this wine was amazing and complex and full of rich, ripe, perfectly aged fruit, without being overbearing!!
There was still enough acid to keep it all together, but it was balanced and full body. Paired well with halibut, and could’ve handled salmon, pork, or even chicken cordon blue!
A truly Notable Wine & Vintage, I wish I had more!
If you like full body rich whites, this is a great producer, region and blend of varietals to try out, especially if you like Chardonnay but are ready for something fun and different!

These wines are 🎶 to my 👀!
The investments I made in July have been trickling in…this one was extra special because I got the opportunity to rhyme about Pinot Noir with the staff at the vineyard house.
This winery has made an enormously positive impact on my perception of Willamette Pinot Noir and deserves all the credit and support it gets!
The real return comes when I get to share some of these amazing wines and Notable Wine Experiences with wine lovers like you!
