Alain Hudelot-Noellat
Chambolle-Musigny Pinot Noir
2023. Dark red raspberry. Pepper and a touch of baking spices. Super powerful. This is not a delicate pinot. There are wines that are a privilege to drink. This is that. — 25 days ago
Antico Broilo
Schioppettino di Prepotto
Light in the nose and delicate on palate but with some strength there. Pronounced acidity and light tannins and pepper on back end. Decent finish. V well made. 2021 — a month ago
Domaine Bernard Gripa
Saint-Joseph Syrah 2022
Well now. This is a treat. Pure and elegant. Solid backbone of Syrah fruit with a meatiness one expects from the No. Rhone. Really really good. Long finish. 2022 — 10 days ago
Cécile Paquet
Bourgogne Pinot Noir
Delicious. Bright sweet red fruit. Well balanced with acidity, tannins and fruit. So nice. — a month ago
Domaine Bruno Clavelier
Vieilles Vignes Champs D'Argent Bourgogne Pinot Noir 2022
Super pretty. I love that. But also robust. Those who think Pinot is weak should try this. It’s some serious wine for a Bourgogne Rouge. Longer finish than you expect. Tight dark fruit. Really good. 2022 — 2 months ago
Domaine Laurent & Karen Boussey
Volnay Pinot Noir 2022
Really pretty red fruit. Nice acidity. Quite lacked tannins, ripe or otherwise. Polished and v drinkable. Maybe not long aging potential but fine by me. — 11 days ago
Daou Vineyards
Paso Robles Chardonnay 2024
2024. Flabby this is not. Not my usual drink but in 375 I wanted to try it. Pleasant. More acidity than expected. Usual Cal flavors but quite well made. Enjoyable. — a month ago
Weingut Richard Östreicher
Maria Im Weingarten Silvaner 2022
Banana laffy taffy on the nose without the oppressive sugar. Super complex and a v long finish. 2022. Bonkers good. — 2 months ago
Klanjscek
Rosso Merlot Cabernet Sauvignon
Bright red wine. Great nose. Super compelling. Quite exceeded expectations. V. Fine tannins. Dark red fruit. Brambly. Herbal. And menthol. Love this. 2018. I will find this — 2 months ago
Timothy Eustis
Wine Director, Red Lion Inn
Bright acidity. Replay few tannins. Way more an Irish. Tart cherry. 2019. An herbaceousness that is v compelling. Lovely. — 8 days ago
