The Lantern Imperial Pumpkin Ale

Florida Avenue Brewing Company ‘The Lantern’ Imperial Pumpkin Ale. Pumpkin-amber color of ale extends to head which undulates as dissolving eyes lace into spooky reaching claw and ghost flame afterlace. Cinnamon-apple nose fades to expose a cauldron of pumpkin spice and butternut, spaghetti, and acorn squash, and finally the gourd lord, pumpkin. Bourbon strikes the palate first with a caramel and cedar urgency, leaving a tannic mark. Nutmeg and allspice roll about the floor, kicking up the bud-covered rug. What this lacks in creaminess, it exerts in agro spice. I’m on the fence with this one, and make no mistake, I am impaled there. I want to try this one in a year! I think it deserves that. See you next year! Happy haunting.

Edulis Reserva Rioja Tempranillo 2012

Rrrrrrrraowr! Mushroom and potting soil, prime rib and rosemary. Get the fudge outta my way! Can’t! Dark chocolate dominates in graphite-plum and agro-tannin cedar, cinnamon and tobacco force the issue and the black currant is AGGRESSIVELY assertive! Got black pepper in white pepper sauce! Iron rich liver grill without the bitter; shellfish shell, prune and blackberry show sour aspects and oak tannins spread the word. Spanish oak and sensibility prevail. Beast and the best of such.

Solid Albariño. High acid but good fruit. Apple and lemon, along with good tropical fruit notes. Saline. Would drink more. — 7 months ago

Château Luchey-Halde

Pessac-Léognan Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 2011

A wonderful surprise! Really a good white from Pessac-Leognan made by the Bordeaux Sciences Agro a part of Bordeaux University. This mix of Sauvignon blanc, Sauvignon Gris and Sémillon is just perfectly balanced. The nose is rich and complex with grapefruit and flower touches! Just amazing, I am going to buy much more of this one! — 7 years ago

Terra Silvestre Touriga Franca Blend 2013

An explosion of blackberries both in nose and mouth. Hard tannins that improved after a few minutes. Interesting. Muita amora, frutado até. Os taninos são meio ásperos mas ficaram melhores após um tempo na taça — 9 years ago
