Sign at Oxbow Market in Napa

Jim Moore was one of the first winemakers I personally met that helped me “get started” in the wine industry. He was a mentor by providing encouragement & being available, even when he was busy getting his label started.  I wrote a few posts about Jim & his wine in 2008.

While visiting the Wine Merchant at Oxbow Market (on the Riverfront in Napa), I was excited to see several of Jim’s wines available.  I picked up the Vermentino for less then $15. It’s fabulous & next time, I’m buying a case.

The reviews on CellarTracker describe the wine well; although I caution paying any attention whatsoever  to the points given by strangers.  TIP: If you follow folks long enough on CellarTracker & taste the wines they review & find you have a similar palate, then their points will be useful to you.

*This winery is so small, they haven’t gotten around to finishing their web site.  But, the good news is, the wine is amazing, affordable and available at several retailers.
