Casablanca Valley Pinot Noir 2020
Not that complex. Easy to drink. Spicy. Other then that nothing really stands out - it is a wine though. — a month ago
Enfield Wine Co.
Don Miguel Vineyard Albariño 2023
California Albariño. Tastes like like a top of the line riesling but more on the citrusy side. 900 bottles made. Eureka lemon. Touch white peach. 13.8%. I wonder how this will age? Very faint herb notes at the back palate - hint majoram? Quite acidic. Needs to mellow out.
This in a way cements that Mark Enfield is one of the better wine makers in the US. Best to order via his website. If still available. — a month ago
Enderle & Moll
Baden Pinot Noir 2013
Quite earthy. Light. Ten years later for this basic wine and it still does very well. Strawberries, rhubarb, stem influence, oregano… as it opens up give it many hours! Hint raspberry. Still a lot of tannis. Given that this is the basic wine for E&M and was 20$. This is unbelievably awesome 😎. What a wine - i fear this is my last bottle - a cellar find - i am totally disorganized hahaha 😆. — 5 days ago

Les Champs Fulliots Monthelie 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2015
10 years in the bottle. Needed a weekday break. Tried over 5 days under Argon. This is excellent. And very classy. Closed at first - then after 2 days a real beauty. Deep dark cherry, 🍒 hint forest floor, bark, tannins almost fully resolved 13.5%. Hint Turmeric, black tea. Drink Now! — a month ago
Louis Jadot
Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru Pinot Noir 2005
20 years. Well top vintage and vineyard. What to do you think? Back then already 150$. At its peak! Ridiculously refined. Cardamom plum nose. Tannins fully resolved. My wife says mellow. I hate this term. Faint cherry, Touch crushed marble, hint lime, green tea, …looses fruit and interest after 3 hours. Drink within 60 min gone later ——-!!!!!! — a month ago
