Les Clos Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay 2013

Lime and citrus notes with saline notes. Inspired by a recent note @Ira Schwartz about a delicious Chablis he had. Oak has been thoroughly absorbed. I haven’t had many Chablis from Les Clos but lived up to its exalted status. See previous Delectable note. Great with fresh Pacific Oysters. — 15 days ago

Pfersigberg Alsace Grand Cru Riesling

Beautiful golden color. Intense fruit on the nose followed by the same on the palate-lychee pear melon honey. Touch of sugar. A great Alsace Gewurtztraminer!! — 4 years ago

Tradition Alsace Pinot Noir

Wonderful taut wine. The fruit pops on the mid-palette and the finish is clean with a slight tang. Had it with a maple-miso roasted salmon and it was spot on, and had it with some sous vide short ribs (with a reduction of this same wine) and it stood up nicely. — 2 months ago

Honey sweetness that's not overpowering, a round pleasing body with low acidity, perfect for dessert pairing or alone. — 3 years ago

Pewsey Vale Vineyard

Museum Reserve The Contours Riesling 2015

This keeps impressing, easily comparable to Trimach Cuvee Frederic Emile. Heavy petrol with citrus, but not as much complexity as other Aussie Rieslings. Nice finish but not particularly lengthy. — 2 years ago

Eguisheim Alsace Pinot Noir 1550

There’s depth and “cut” to it that invites more comparisons to its Burgundy cousins than its German ones, so give it 30 minutes or so in a decanter before diving in: Serve it at a cool 60 degrees in Burgundy stems and you’ve got one of the most versatile reds for food one could possibly ask for. This will sing with a wide range of proteins, from salmon all the way up to beef, but I can’t resist an old-school Alsatian pairing—tarte flambée. Smoky bacon, creamy cheese, crisp crust…that’ll work for me! Enjoy! — 4 years ago
