Château Ferry Lacombe

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. — 10 months ago

Clearly a under the radar château. Thx!

Josè Dhondt

Brut Blanc de Blancs Champagne Chardonnay

Another year, a new RM producer! An gorgeous, exuberant and lively Blanc de Blanc for José Dhondt (375ml). Preserved lemon, golden apple — fresh and baked — hazelnut and toasty brioche in abundance. That elusive balance of brightness and depth/richness….

En route home from the airport, I realized that I had no champagne awaiting me at home and risked a birthday passing without a glass (😱). Managed to swing by Ferry Plaza Wine Merchant on my way back to the East Bay 15 minutes before closing for this little gem. Well worth the 30 minute detour.

Château Lacombe Cadiot

Supérieur Red Bordeaux Blend 2019

Decanter’s blind testing resulted in astonishing score of 97 and definitely it was the reason for me to purchase this bottle! This is definite something “different” if not to say a “modern” type of Bordeaux wine and I enjoyed it a lot. — 5 years ago

The Eyrie Vineyards

Muskat Ottonel 2014

I loooove to look to Chartreuse for color references because it's a hell of a pretty shade. But its a prettier, maybe legendary taste and smell and this little humble library Muscat from Oregan has two copies of green ferry DNA.

Vegetal peppery herbs - arugula, sage, thyme, lemongrass, mint, marijuana, pine. Wild flowers and candied orange liquor. Perfumed green vibes with sweet undertones.

Familiar, complex, mystical magic.
