Exultet Fiano di Avellino 2021

Starts with lots of mineral and citrus notes, crisp all the way through. Paired to perfection with Branzino. — a year ago

Rebula Goriška Brda Ribolla Gialla

A really lovely value skin contact from Slovenia. Delicate oak on the nose, one expects a bit of sweetness but it is bone dry and acidic. It’s surprising but turns out to be great for food (branzino for us). Super clean and elegant for a skin contact wine. Curious if anyone has had an aged bottle… would consider cellaring a couple bottles. — 2 years ago

La Cave du Vin Blanc de Morgex et de La Salle

Valée d'Aosta Prié Blanc 2020

Crisp, clean, dancing across the palate with zippy acidity. Lemon, yuzu, grapefruit…. Low ABV. Laser-like sharpness cleanses the richness of cacio Pepe and black olive branzino…1200 ft vineyards…absolutely brilliant! — 2 years ago

Silver Brut Nature Champagne Pinot Noir

Not as good as I expected with fried calamari and shrimp. It grew rounder and less focused the more I ate. Much better with branzino al sale. — 3 years ago

Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc

@Estiatorio Milos in Miami enjoying this lovely Sancerre with our Dover Sole and Branzino. This has got to be the lightest, feathery Sancerre we’ve ever had. Sancerre is my favorite for many reasons. Just a beautiful wine for any time of year but beckons you to the beach and a warm breeze. — 2 years ago

Ü Pastine Portofino Bianchetta Genovese 2020

Tasted with marvelous branzino with fresh herb and tomato “spring caponata,” this wine was an ideal embodiment in a glass of the “macchia,” the Italian version of the Rhône’s “garrigue.” Bright pear, apple, lemon and yellow plum with an underlying steely minerality and wonderful sensations of hay and salt air-tinged brush. Surprisingly juicy but also lean, it’s an ideal wine for fish — 2 years ago

Opoka Sauvignon Blanc 2017

Two part review!
1. BF that knows about wine: Great.
2. Me that knows nothing: Good. Paired with “What We Do in the Shadows” and homemade branzino and scallops. Unmemorable but nice for this night.

Domaine François Carillon

Bourgogne Chardonnay 2020

Going big on a Monday with sum salt crusted Branzino and White Burgundy by one of my favorite producers. The Chardonnay is round with slight citrus notes, deep acidity and a honey suckle finish. Absolutely delightful pairing. — 2 years ago
