Wine Review: This opaque and dark garnet colored Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon based wine from Château Phélan Ségur opens with a cassis and graphite bouquet with hints of blackberry and oak. On the palate this wine is full bodied with medium plus acidity. The mouthfeel is balanced, round, and savory. The flavor profile is cassis and graphite blend with notes of blackberry and oak. The finish is rather dry, and its dusty tannins stick around for quite a while. The Tasting Panel would pair this Bordeaux blend with a New York strip steak. Enjoy - KWGTP

Winemaker Interview Series – Brian Pruett – Dry Creek Vineyard – Feb 2026

On Wednesday, February 25, 2026, we interviewed Brian Pruett. Brian is the winemaker at Dry Creek Vineyard. We covered eight wines during the visit. We started with Chenin Blanc and a single vineyard Sauvignon Blanc, both from the 2024 vintage. Then we tried three single-vineyard and one historic-field-blend Zinfandel from the 2022 vintage. As you will recall, we really liked 2022 as a Zinfandel vintage. Finally, we wrapped up with their 2021 Red Blend and their flagship Cabernet Sauvignon from the 2022 vintage. It was a great tasting and a lot of fun. In this post, you can learn what we learned about Brian and the history of the winery and read our reviews of all of these impressive wines.
