I’ll be frank people. Your organic, orange wine pet-nat stuff is all well and good. But a classically constructed, traditional left bank Bordeaux is the highest expression of what wine can be and that is simply that. Branaire-Ducru’s 2015 is an intense plummy, jammy, rich delight. Like bananas foster, baked Alaska, or roasted prime rib. It’s classic, old fashioned, and so good that new fashioned simply cannot compare. Merci Patrick Maroteaux for sticking with the tried and true. — 5 years ago

I have long been a fan of St. George for a long time, and this confirms my high opinion of them. Nose of rye spice with vanilla and bananas foster, and on the taste, honey-sweetened tea with clove and pepper, masala tea spices, oak, and bitter chocolate. Orange emerges immediately on the finish with subsequent honey. — 5 years ago

Sampling this new addition to my collection, which is also my very first Kavalan. On the nose it closely resembles bourbon, with notes of caramel, holiday spices, dark chocolate, and creme brûlée. On the palate, however, it’s a bit more stern and less suave than I anticipated with notes of worn saddle leather, toasted nuts, clove, espresso, and bananas foster. The finish is quite warm. — 6 years ago

From the old vines-fresh fruit, bananas foster, apricot hint of peach melba. Rounded with length and boldness all wrapped in smooth oak. — 6 years ago

Initially reticent and needing 30 minutes of air to fully express itself aromatically, the 2006 Chateau Rieussec opens with a lighter bouquet of butterscotch, buttered popcorn, mango and ginger undertones. The palate shows really good freshness and intensity with a good sense of minerality. Pineapple creme brulee, poached pear, bananas foster and nutmeg flavors complete this beautiful wine. The exceedingly long, finish lingers and rounds out this complete wine. What this doesn’t possess on the nose, exceeds expectations on the palate and finish, as this elegant wine is one of the great wines of this vintage. Enjoy this wonderful wine over the next two decades. Drink 2020-2035- 94 — 6 years ago

Tonight’s nightcap 🥃

Notes of honey, figs, and molasses on the nose; brings to mind a nice serving of bananas foster still aflame on the dinner table. On the palate smooth, balanced, and very expressive. This is a great Cognac without being a complete wallet buster. — 7 years ago

Pale straw color. Aromas of tropics fruits, gooseberries and lemon. Great lemon acidity, grapefruit and a bright finish. Perfect for this warm day in Foster City, California. — 5 years ago

2002 Half Bottle of ZH Clos Windsbuhl. Indice 3. 18 years of Half Bottle age have brought this wine into the beginning of its peak drinking window with likely another 5-10 years left before seeing any declines. Bright acidity of lime skin & lemon pulp. Apricot, Peach, yellow apple, caramel, banana foster, hint of honey. Slightly off-dry but perfectly balanced with a finish that lasts for miles — 6 years ago

The 1980 vintage in Sauternes was challenging to say the least but Chateau D’Yquem has crafted one of the shining stars of the vintage. Aromatically quite expressive, the Sauternes takes the lead with candied ginger, lychee, apricot and shades of bananas foster that all sing in unison. The palate comes off with an unusual combination of sweet and sour tones, with a strong vein of salinity that races through the core of quince, sour apricot, vanilla creme brûlée and roasted pineapple flavors. Texturally elegant, this is far less on the unctuous side of D’Yquem, but has a beautiful feeling of refinement, freshness and elegance. Still humming at the forty year mark, the 1980 D’Yquem will provide drinking enjoyment for at least another five to ten years. Drink 2020-2027- 94 — 6 years ago

Amber tinged head atop an amber, auburn clarity. Light bananas foster turns up the rum-sage on the nose, then brings peanut oil, and allspice. Peanut brittle and dark brown sugar nestle inside rye toast, brioche and a bittering savory whisper. Pleasant interplay of malt and bitter, but always with a slightly honeyed finish.

16’ Peter Michael Cuvee Indigene.
Do yourself a favor & decanted this in a cellar for 60- 90 minutes.
Intense nose of mineral, dried apricot, peach.
WOW… Rich pear, fig, butter, honeysuckle, hazelnut, Banana foster, 4/10 acidity.
Flipping sick!
Wish I had a case of this.
No problem holding onto this wine for another decade. — 5 years ago

Topaz with heavenly streamers stretching for perfection. Creamy head of structured perfection in terms of density and longevity. Perfect sheet of fog lacing falls like a slo-mo curtain to reveal layer two of mountain snows reflecting moonlight. Nose of bananas foster in all its blazing brandy and it’s caramelized olfactory topography; a malt image in sensory sepia to match the mountainscape. Nutmeg, cola and pecan dessert vies with baklava. The palate is a revelation in balance. The expected Belgian malt emerges in contrast to a dappled vanilla and Connecticut tobacco, pecan shell dryness, and chicory coffee before returning to a root tonic sweetness, and cardamom. #kwak #belgianspecialbeers #belgianale #belgianbeer #pauwelkwak #pauwelkwakbrewery #beer #bier #birra #biere #ale #ceveza #cerveja #belgium #belgian — 6 years ago

Salted caramel and bananas foster, sherried as hell, burnt caramel, and green herbal notes- some bitter greens. A little disjointed around the middle but with a classic (long) finish. — 6 years ago
