Domaine Valentin Zusslin

Brut Zéro Crémant d'Alsace White Blend

Somm David T
9.0

This is a blend of Pinot Auxerrois, Chardonnay and Pinot Gris. You know as soon as you taste it, it’s not the three traditional grapes associated with champagne or sparkling.

Lemon, lime pulp w/ zest sprinkled in, some beeswax, green apple, tropical melons with some honey dew rind, pineapple juice, cream that is slightly whipped, sea spray, some sea fossil notes-oyster, understated white & chalk, volcanics, limestone, bread dough notes, yellow lilies, spring flowers, round acidity with a decent finish that is highly polished & leans more into fruit as it sets.

Nice find from a cool little wine shop in Chicago. Ripe raspberries and booming acidity. Surprised at how dark in color the wine was. Loved it — 9 months ago

Tenute Sella

Omaggio a Quintino Sella Lessona Nebbiolo Blend 2015

A toast to the “Unification of Italy.” A light garnet red tapering to burnt orange on the edges. Aromas of black cherry and red currants. Hints of orange with a spicy pepper. The palate is dry and bright with a complex mix of flavor. The Sella family’s history in Lessona region began in 1671. This is one of the smallest village appellations in all of Italy with a mere 23 hectares of land under vine. The success of this region is the Pliocene sandy, marine-influenced soils. These deposits of marine sands and fossil shells provide the mineral cocktail which enhances Nebbiolo with a bright energy. — 2 years ago

San Luis Obispo Grenache Rosé 2021

Lots of minerals on the nose and palate and subtle red fruits (unripe strawberry). A pleasant surprise for a California rosé, more French or Spanish in style. Yum!! — 2 years ago
