Chateau Montelena

Calistoga Zinfandel 2014

So very light for a California Zinfandel. The nose is deceiving but palate is varietally true except for the weight - fleet-footed mouthfeel like a Pinot noir. — 5 years ago

I Think Manzanilla Jerez-Xérès-Sherry Palomino Fino

Sanlúcar de Barrameda was the port that Christopher Columbus set off from in 1492. Just 1 year earlier, duties on wine exports from Sanlúcar had been abolished to take advantage of English merchants desperate for new supply after the loss of Bordeaux.

It began a centuries-long romance between Sherry and English wine lovers, as immortalized in Shakespeare's Henry IV Part 2, when Falstaff glorifies sturdy Spanish 'sack' over thin Bordeaux 'claret' and Rhine 'hock'.

But the honeymoon, quite literally, was not to last. Henry VIII's divorce from Catherine of Aragon drove a wedge between England and Catholic Europe, and left English wine lovers in need of a new source once again. But Sherry fanatics wouldn't have to go entirely without. When Sir Francis Drake sailed into Cádiz and burned the Spanish fleet in 1587, he carried away 2,900 butts of Sherry - enough to supply London for years - as his most famous prize.

Pinot Gris

Super jammy and feels more like a rose than a Pinot gris. Lovely, slick mouth feel, not too dry and full of flavour. Tasted best when super chilled and would be great for summer — 3 years ago

Selbach-Oster

Zeltinger Schlossberg Riesling Kabinett 2015

Spätlese. Crushed slate. It almost rumbles over the tongue and through the mouth. Nice mild citrus: mandarin, lime. Some ripe juicy apple. Swimming pool plastic and patrol. Lychee and vanilla and tapioca pudding. Ooh this shit is good. Fleet footed. I could polish off this bottle in an hour if I were thirsty. — 5 years ago
