Kuentz-Bas

Alsace Blanc 2023

The 2023 Kuentz-Bas Riesling is an example of what me truly fall in love with this entire style of Alsatian wine. A soft hue of chartreuse meets the eye, and does not lie. After a bit of a breathe the nose is lush and grassy in all the right ways. The palate is where it shines, bringing oodles of wet stone, delightfully gum-soaking minerality, and a finish that defines this style of Riesling. This is in the top three when we pair it with anything spicy- particularly creole- but any spice will do.

Marcassin

Marcassin Vineyard Chardonnay 2009

Deep golden color, complex aromas, marmalade and peach pit, density of fruit flavors on the palate, some bitterness on the finish. This wine really shows the character of the vineyard. Interesting stuff but got overwhelmed by our Fried Boudin Fritters with Creole Mustard Sauce. — 7 years ago

Chateau Montelena

Napa Valley Chardonnay 2013

An icon, and a superb accompaniment to Shrimp Creole. Chablis-like in style with Meyer lemon, tangerine oil, rocks, and a racy spine of acidity. #chrispine — 8 years ago

Cline Family Cellars

North Coast Viognier 2023

the beefiest white I have ever had. Heavily herbal and floral with slight diesel notes. Full bodied balanced by strong acidity with a strong green floral flavor. Not something for on its own but tasted amazing with cajun/creole dinner (shrimp Etouffee) — 9 months ago

Manoir de la Tete Rouge

Tête d'Ange Saumur Cabernet Franc

Really interesting wine from a biodynamic producer in Saumur. Not fined or filtered so the wine is slightly cloudy and with sediment. On the savory side. Notes of raspberry, red cherry, smoke, charred herbs, roasted poblano and black pepper. A bit funky and earthy. Definitely a food wine. Held up great over two nights for a pairing with dijon and herb crushed pork tenderloin and creole seasoned pan-seared salmon. — 5 years ago

Beringer Vineyards

KVR Knights Valley Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

Cocoa, savory spices, cedar, strawberries and cherry. Dark chocolate with a creole bitter old fashioned. Usually not my style but hit the spot tonight with burgers. There’s enough tannin and acid to balance it out. Could be good in a few years. — 3 years ago

Vino Macerato 2020

La Chablisienne

Vaulorent Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 2014

Oyster shell, citrus, rock, a pinch of butter. Classic Chablis 1er cru nose. The palate is very balanced with a sheer acidity but also matter, texture : lemon, width, white flower. A long finish on acid notes that calls for another instant sip. Very good and more when confronted to a squid salad creole style (lime and chili). — 9 years ago
