(Disg. 12/14) One of the best bottles of Selosse in recent memory, the coveted 2008 base Initial is an absolute stunner, still incredibly fresh and vibrant with off the charts complexity and captivating Selossien aromatics, a rich, powerful and textural palate with layered minerality and a finish that just doesn’t end. Amazing wine. — 4 months ago

My new Favorite white, just love mountain fruit! Named for mountain range dividing Napa & Sonoma, old stone winery dug into side of dormant volcano crater in 1889, remained in production ever since. Pale lemon with aromas of Tropical and stone fruit with complex spice and floral notes. On the palate flavors of apple, pear and citrus with light oak and nutty tones, fresh and vibrant, well integrated. Long finish ending with fruit and flinty mineral characteristics. Long aging potential. Nice! — 2 years ago

Pale lemon in color with a light golden hue.

Ripe citrus fruits on the nose with earth and spices.

Medium bodied with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with mild complexity.

Showing apples, ripe citrus fruits, apples, earth, herbs and vegetables.

This 4 year old is drinking very fresh right out of the bottle. Soft, smooth and elegant.

Needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly, and will continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years.

Easy drinking and good by itself or with food, and gets more complex as it opens up.

A good quality wine, but I expected a little more at this price point.

A great sipping wine, balanced and elegant.

I paired it with cheeses and crackers.

Trebbiano grapes were aged in used large oak barrels for 12 months.

12.5% alcohol by volume.

90 points.

Celebrating tonight with this beautiful bottle of champagne - the first time I’ve ever bought myself champagne! Are they all like this? :) Beautiful golden hue, fine velvety bubbles, with a lovely richness and weight. An engaging depth of aromas and flavours including baked apples, lemon, fresh bread, almonds, with some minerality, salinity, smoke and spice. — 3 years ago

Bright honey gold with fine frizzante bubbles and a thin white mousse. Wildly aromatic with white flowers, ripe red apples, and fresh white peaches. Medium light palate confirms the nose giving layers of pome, stone fruit, honeysuckle, and honey. Bright, balancing acidity. Long finish. Excellent as a light sipper; shines with spicy dishes, fresh fruit, or sweet barbecue sauces. Drink now, of course. — 7 months ago

Shiny and fresh. Good bright fruit. Apricot, apples. With time in glass it’s developed a slightly candied finish — 3 years ago

I'm not typically a big fan of Chardonnay, but this one was delicious. Crisp, fresh, and clean, though the flavors took a while to open up. A couple hours after opening, I tasted some nice yellow apples and ripe pears with just a touch of oak. 100% Chardonnay. 1/30/22. — 3 years ago

🍇2019 Ronco del Gnemiz Friulano San Juan
Enchanting and thrilling with a lovely texture. Somehow it reminds me of a mix of a white Burgundy and high quality Sancerre. A wine that is right up my alley. Serve it at 12 degrees in a generous Burgundy glass. Serve it with something tasty. 

Good concentration on the nose that opens up with some green apples, grape fruit and elder flower that is soon overtaken by richer characters of juicy peaches, orange and honey. Toasted nuts and a pronounced crushed fruit mineralogy brings further complexity.
Full bodied and a generous entry with a balancing fresh acidity. Pronounced fruit concentration and strong mid palate yet with a slime waste and lovely salty texture that brings nerve and tension through a very solid finish. Well Done! — 4 years ago
