Another underrated region for Pinot Noir, though may not be for long. Climate change may for this persnickety varietal to take refuge in the high altitude cool vineyards of the Aalto Adige. Certainly checks all the right boxes for Pinot. Light bodied, med alcohol, high acidity, bright fruit, elegance. — 8 days ago

So beautiful. Packed herbal notes lie under a nutty front. On the palate the magic happens: it explodes with mineralityy in waves, electric acidity (yes, acidity, in grüner), lemon zest and oil, tingling for 30+ seconds — 8 months ago

The only one on a good horizontal lineup that I wouldn’t pick blind , but good. Leaning into Chablis territory with leesy creaminess and maybe some oak, but still has a pleasant rounded herbal nose (artichoke, succulents)  and comes together in a pleasantly balanced, rounded tone  — 8 months ago

Redemption for a underperforming bottle from our last go at this 1992. If you're buying old wine and didn't anticipate bottle variation, you need to know that's just part of the game. This bottle is fantastic.
(Enjoying alongside the '88 again today, no slouch on that bottle!)

On the Lawn at Tanglewood this afternoon with the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Our conductor Andris Nelsons is leading Sarah KIRKLAND SNIDER (Forward into Light; BSO Premiere), PROKOFIEV (Violin Concerto No. 2 in G Minor, Opus 63) and DVOŘÁK (Symphony No. 7 in D Minor, Opus 70).
 
Our soloist today Augustin Hadelich rounds out the program with Prokofiev’s intense Violin Concerto No. 2, and Andris Nelsons leads the BSO in Dvořák’s Symphony No. 7 – sometimes called the composer's greatest symphony. — 2 years ago
