Big Nose Full Body Wine Sales in Brooklyn. “May I finish that Riesling?”
90% Marsanne and 10% Roussanne, aged 30 months in new oak. Some will say this is over the hill, others will say it needs hours of air. It’s undeniably an eclectic and intriguing wine. Honey and toasted nuts. Rich and full with an unctuous sherry finish. Paired with chicken liver mousse. — 18 days ago
A beautiful gift! Paired with boquerones and jamon iberico brought back from Spain (don’t tell TSA). Drunk over two hours and absolutely singing. Nice nuttiness to compliment the acorn forward Iberico, and wonderful acidity and saltiness to compliment the anchovies. One of those celebratory bottles that you can stew over sip after sip, or just let go and lift the glass. — a month ago

Light in color but deep and wild in style with crushed flower petals, red forest berries, spiced plum and garrigue. The tannins are present but not overbearing. Abv. a bit pushy. An iron fist in a velvet glove. Just a dang good wine for the money. Sustainably farmed. — a month ago

Drinking well with some air. Showing deep garnet in the glass. Dark, stewed blackberry and mulberry with potting soil, sarsaparilla, incense, licorice, and wood spice. Classic left bank. About 3/4 Cab and 1/4 Merlot. — 2 days ago
