Benson Ranch Young Vine Nero d'Avola Rosato 2022

2022. This is now designated as Bricarelli Ranch. I’ve enjoyed all of the vintage and multi-vintage bottles of this wine over the last several years and have been really impressed with how well the delicious fruit flavors have held up. — a month ago

Greg tasted at Kaitei 6109 Maple in Benson.
He loves it, says it beats all so far! This is the only peated whiskey I have liked so far.

Château Lafon

Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 2023

2023 vintage. First Sauternes I tasted from this great vintage, and this is very good indeed. Château Lafon has a long history, and a part of its vineyards form an enclave within the vineyards of Château Yquem. In the 1922(!) edition of Cocks & Ferry it is considered to be "in the league of the best crus of Sauternes". It was bought from the Lafon family in the early 20th century by the Dufour family, whose 4th generation runs the estate these days. Honey, candied pineapple and flowers. Mouthwatering acidity keeps the sweetness in check. Good length too. Terrific value. — 8 months ago
