9.0

charming style, teeniest tiniest hint of RS, low ABV - slight petrol yielded apricot, peach, apple, confectionery sugar, bit of stony minerality - crisp acidity, refreshing beach aperitif. Bump for QPR — a month ago

Bernkasteler Doctor Kabinett Riesling 2015

Vintage 2015 | Now I understand the reputation of the Doctor. Textbook Riesling. | One anecdote I never forgot. Michael Broadbent wrote that his honeymoon was to the Mosel. And one of his deepest wishes was to make love to his wife in the Doctor. He wrote it dry and witty, as only British could. Very credible. | paired with salmon and shiitake. — 4 months ago

Domaine Gallet

Côte Rôtie Syrah 2020

Opened about three hours prior to service. The 2020 pours a deep purple with a near opaque core; medium viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of funky brambles, purple flowers, black pepper, bacon fat, dried green herbs, exotic spices, and rocky earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose with the addition of olive brine. The finish is long, ferrous and savory. Really great stuff. Drink now through 2040+. Thanks for the assist @Lyle Fass — 3 months ago
