Domaine Tardieux Gal

Cantina Bartolo Mascarello

Barolo Nebbiolo 2019

Old world wine that I’ll ponder later tonight in the dream world. Like a college 101 course in Barolo’s of another age. Leathery, tannic, balanced, dark cherry and plum, copper. A young gal out at her first dance, yet waltzing with the seductive wisdom of generations. Deeply grateful to know people who treat me to such divinity. — 3 years ago

Domaine Alain Chavy

Puligny-Montrachet Chardonnay 2013

As I learn about some of these better White Burgundies, the element or really more a "consistent trait" is a simple joy that flows onto the palate that's like a warm smile from the right gal at the big party. Nothing at all sinister- just that warm welcome that promises to bring a good time along with it. The nose seems right in step with the aforementioned grin, with notes of nougat, golden-hued wrapped in a subtle, near-neutral bit of barrel. As it has breathed it's shifted into a more "relaxed gear", and is spreading out, revealing more of itself. Reaching the back of the palate and leisurely 'becoming' a finish it reflects the best bits of its strengths on the mid-palate.

Les Cèdres Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 1961

A dignified old gal. Subtle gamey, earthy and flowery notes and surprising density for a CdP of its age. Pretty splendid. — 9 years ago

Anniversary Release Cabernet Sauvignon 1997

Yet another Napa Quake survivor. Probably my favorite winery and wine (really the Cabernet Franc) this old friend (was going to gal, but trying stay under the radar) held up just fine. @LaJotaVineyards — 4 years ago

Lovely, soft old gal with tons of fruit left in her. Bold summer berries on the approach that yield to sun-dried plums across a cocoa bridge. — 6 years ago

Barbolini

Lambrusco Grasparossa di Castelvetro

A reminder that I owe Lambrusco a love letter. Usually I’m more of a di Sorbara gal, but this Grasparossa di Castelvetro has me hooked: violets, black cherry, cassis, a lot more earth than I was expecting, tart and chalky, like liquified smarties (but in a good way!) and just a hint of Welch’s grape jelly— all backed by a nice rustic tannin structure and topped with a delicate mousse. It’s a shame that Barbolini will no longer be exported to the US, though I can’t blame the Italians for wanting to keep it all for themselves. — 6 years ago

This was drinking really well. Smooth and savory all the way through the finish. Blueberry, raisins, and baking spice. Nicely balanced.

Le Haut-Lieu Demi-Sec Vouvray Chenin Blanc 1985

WOW. This is a reason to age wine. This was a birth year wine for me. This gal has just turned 31 and still knows how to have a classy time. Hazelnut. Macadamia nut. Fresh ground coffee beans. Unbelievable wine. Just a touch of sweetness on the tip of your tongue. Proud to be born in 1985. I don't want to finish this glass. Damn. — 10 years ago
