Cave de Turckheim
Élevé en Fût de Chêne Pinot Noir 2016
A different Alsace Pinot Noir than I have ever had before. 1/3 new old, 1/3 one-year old oak and 1/3 old oak make for a fuller, more structured Pinot than most anything else in the region. Red fruits combined with earth and spice along with softer acidity than most create an enormously complex wine. Just delicious! — 4 months ago

La Rocca Soave Classico Garganega 2013
You’ll be hard pressed to find a greater Soave out there. This wine at this age needs air to show its full potential. The nose shows sweet ripe melon, raw hazelnut, cut grass and fresh herb garden. The palate is soft and bright at the same time. Flavors of crunchy pear, green melon and citrus zest combine with dried bitter herbs and big round acidity. The finish is incredibly long and shows off the cleansing acidity and a kiss of stone fruit. A wonderful wine that deserves to age. — 5 months ago

Mikri Kivotos (Little Ark) Moschofilero Rosé
A beautiful, very traditional Greek rose. Fuller flavors of red fruits, rose and hibiscus layered with wonderful touches of spice. A great food rose. — 3 months ago

Clos Saint Théobald Rangen Grand Cru Gewürztraminer 2015
Very young and quite sweet but beautifully balanced. It seems like a crime to drink this so young but oh was it good! — 4 months ago
Michael Schamis
A beautiful wine, okay but balanced. The nose is tropical with notes of oak and butter. The palate is pure and rich with notes of spice, oak, butter, green apple and peach. An exceptional example of what SLH should be. — 15 days ago
