TGIF! It has taken me a week to recover from the wine goodness that Hall Vineyard threw my way last week. Go for broke on these bottles baby! No, seriously. They’ve got their Napa Valley collection and the Artisan collection (these gems are sold in small lots). Jack’s Master Piece Cab is just that, a masterful work of wine art (both the bottle and its contents). I was fortunate enough to taste its lush yet light richness (yes these traits all contradict one another, which is probably why this wine works so well), sadly not lucky enough to score a bottle of my own, as this pup is sold out. I’m not sure what you would need to do and with whom to score some of this, but start by joining their wine club and mailing list so you’re in the know for the next batch. Darwin was another dilly of goodness in its 80% Syrah/20% Cab blend, rich, smooth, silky with mucho berry bravado. My favorite of the night was the Diamond Mountain District Cab, also in limited release – so get some now! If you like a cheery/blackberry mash-up in your wine, with a sensuous bite to it, smack your lips all over this one and enjoy basking in the aftermath. And the Napa Valley estate collection is banner too. The Sav Blanc was dry, crisp and fruity, and the Cab is deep and jammed tight with cherry, currant, and spicy goodness. So go ahead, declare today a Hall – o – Day and hit the wine trail in search of the good folks and grapes at Hall, where every day feels like Friday. Wacky WineSense Rating: 4.70 Grapes!
If only every day were a Hall – O – Day!
