Great, dry white wine, smells like a rocky coastline — 6 years ago
Almost done clearing out the older rose wines from the back of the cellar...afraid that they will turn, but have been lucky so far. This one from Cassis area of Provence, (south of Marseilles along the coastline) is mostly Grenache, with a little Cinsault and Mourvèdre tossed in. More melon flavor than the others but still dry and crisp. — 8 years ago
straw colored, watery rim; yellow apple, lemon peel, white peach, toast, honey; good concentration on the palate with some glycerol and perhaps a bit of botrytis; medium body, medium acidity, 14.1% ABV; sourced from Platt Vineyard about 5 miles from coastline, barrel fermented and aged 15 months in 33% new French oak — 2 years ago
This was arguably the best Chardonnay I’ve ever had. Absolutely stunning. Chamomile and lemon zest and salty oyster shells. Bracing acidity, gorgeously balanced. Bright minerality, like sunshine and clear blue coastline. With scallops and lemon caper angel hair. 😍😍😍🔥🔥🔥🔥 — 7 years ago
I loved this one! Might be my favorite red zin yet!! — 8 years ago
Just had to try this delicious wine again. From Liguria on a long crescent-shaped sliver of mountainous coastline ranging from the French border in the west to that of Tuscany in the east. Pale lemon with pronounced aromas of stone and tropical fruits, spending 4 months on its lees. On the palate flavors of apple, melon and citrus zest, crisp with lively vibrant acidity and mineral notes. Medium+ finish ending with a spicy flinty character. Nice! — 4 years ago
