Fattoria di Bacchereto
Sassocarlo Terre a Mano Bianco Toscano 2016
Thank you so much to Holly at The Whitby for sharing this pick! Very pleasant to talk with and a wonderfully versatile palate.
I received for Xmas one of those nice sunlight alarm clocks that goes off with chirping birds in the morning and weirdly that’s what I thought of when I took the first sip of this. Acidic but not in a way that makes you want to throw it out the window. A nice little wake up call (but for the evening! not the morning) with just a nice lil fruity kick to make it pleasant for sipping.
A reminder that I’d really like to try more orange wines for the sake of simply Understanding. — 4 months ago
Shelburne Vineyard
Celestial Louise Vermont Louise Swenson Prairie Star 2017
Like a dip in the pool... has an almost chlorine taste when going down. But surprised! It’s not as bad as I expected for a Vermont bubbly. Id like it in an Aperol Spritz more though. 😍Getting wild out here with social distancing. — a month ago
Schlumberger
Gold Secco Welschriesling Blend
My German cousin brought this from Germany so we all assumed it was German... nope, it’s Austrian. A nice balance of fruity and floral, a bit dry, but short. This is the opening act before the band you’ve been dying to see — good in its own right but easily overshadowed and you’re probably not going to remember its name in a couple days.

Fore River Brewing
preble Raspberry Sour
Staying with my parents and can’t decide whether to save the better bottles of wine or just celebrate life. So naturally instead of deciding that, decided to try some Maine beer left by one of my relatives visiting from Portland a few weeks ago. This raspberry sour is definitely more sweet than sour, it’s something I’d prefer as a small taste in a flight than a full can but it was still delicious nonetheless. Makes me wish for summer!
Hope everyone’s staying safe at home! Feeling very lucky to have a house with plenty of land around it to flee to, I get stir crazy just from sitting in my own apartment for a day. — 2 months ago
Abreu Vineyards
Rothwell Hyde Cabernet Sauvignon 2013
Julia Geisler
A very confusing Pinot. On the one hand, peppers and cherries for the full two course meal (maybe this is what Willy Wonka wanted to accomplish with his full course dinner gums), but there’s...... no acidity? Am I being pranked? — 17 days ago
