Failed to post this yesterday but a 2014 Pinot from Eagle’s Trace which is no longer produced. Was made by Gus Anderson who started Anderson’s Conn Valley (ACV) which I am a big fan of. Gus retired and then decided to start making wine again with Eagle’’s Trace. He has passed now and his son Todd runs ACV.
Edit: I hate the app!

7 Deadly Zinz is my all time favorite red wine.
19 Crimes red wine brand is amazing too! White wine is junk. Too sweet for me.

Try a French Muscadet. They don't cost much, and they're anything but sweet.
Generally, Muscadet wines are made to be drunk with food, although sipping on one outside on a hot afternoon would certainly work. My 2¢ on that score. ![]() Here is an introduction to pairing Muscadet with food; which, in my opinion, is a good place to start enjoying what dry whites have to offer: https://winefolly.com/deep-dive/tast...muscadet-wine/ BTW, there are a lot of genuinely dry whites available from different parts of the world. A quality French Chablis will certainly hit the mark, although at a price. Dry whites are not just French, though - a search will offer up many possibilities at a range of price points. Water Tower Fine Wines on Mt. Washington offers a wide selection of dry white wines. No affiliation.

I've had my fair share of all kinds of white wine, especially when I worked at a local wine store. I tried everything and white wine isn't for me.
I appreciate all the input though.. ![]()

What the hell happened to Cakebread? The Cabernet used to be one of my favorites. Somewhere around the 2014 vintage I didn’t like it. I know alot has to do with that years grapes. I tried it again a few years later and still didn’t like it. I just picked up a 2019 to give it a shot again. Me no like.
Is it just me?

I’m with you. If there was only white wine, I wouldn’t drink. Just can’t do it.

It's Italian night here again: lasagna, insalata, and a tasty Barbaresco from Albeisa.

Went to an art and wine festival today showcasing Arizona wines. Some were trash, but others quite tasty. Brought home a couple bottles each of my top 3. Also found some good hot sauce.

Back to Zins here, this evening with an Alexander Valley wine from Geyserville's Marietta Cellars' Angeli vineyard:
![]() ![]() If you enjoy reds that are reasonably well-balanced between fruit, tannins, and alcohol (14.8% in this case), this is a wine worth seeking out.

Had a nice dinner tonight. The owner of the place dug up something for us that wasn’t on the list. We visited Donati maybe 10-12 years ago, and loved it. Very quaint winery with good juice.
