SLAKED | THURSDAY, JUNE 4, 2009 Pax is Back. And This Time It's Personal
When the time came, I found myself still buying a couple bottles of one of my favorite Pax Cellars Wine, the Kobler Family Vineyard Russian River Valley Syrah, thinking it would be the last time.

SLAKED | WEDNESDAY, MAY 20, 2009  2008 Monte Bello Futures Tasting
The 2007 Santa Cruz Mountains Chardonnay (which recently received 93 points from Wine Spectator) is lightly steely with minor tropical fruit and strawberry-bubblegum notes.

My 5's 2004 Eric Texier Cote-Rotie , $62 - This Northern Rhone Syrah was lighter than his other reds, incredibly intense nose of roasted meat and herbs, olives and soil. 100% Syrah from the resurrected Brezeme vineyard, this is light in color, but intense with plums, herbs, and tar, and really well balanced with nice acidity and low alcohol.
