Raul Pérez

La Vizcaína La del Vivo Lomas de Valtuille White Blend 2021

Definitely interested in the intersection of Perez and godello. Pale gold, very aromatic, citrus and almond, fresh herbs, touch of brioche/vanilla and saline, extremely versatile. — 4 months ago

Mas Foulaquier

Gran' Tonillières Coteaux du Languedoc Pic St. Loup

Pepper jam, peppery and jammy, peppers jammed into a waft, put some pep in my jam. Think I’m gettin high off the boozy bouquet fumes.

Recommended by the French man at MFC Rare Wines in the West Village, an intimate little shop tucked away off the main intersection.

He said this vintage in particular really surprised him, so I made the impulse buy.

This wild thing delivers. Jammy for sure, but also hits those herbal and sharp tart and juicy fruit notes. We’ll balanced acidity. A good chew for sure.

Love this pick. Especially with pizza from Motorino’s

Envinate

Lousas Viñas de Aldea Mencía 2018

The Envinate line comes from a group of four friends who make natural inspired, and sometimes incredibly complex wines mostly from a tiny pocket in the Canary Islands. They can be so good they become a rare intersection of the natural and somm worlds, which tend not to play nice together.
Louses is a gorgeous, complex, elegant field blend with heavy accents of Mencia. It has cocoa, raspberries, blackberries, cedar, and the softest plushest pillow texture.

@Rob Brobst III envinate should have decent distribution in most big cities - comes from Jose pastor selections...I haven’t loved al their entry wines but this was excellent

René Muré

Clos Saint Landelin Pinot Noir 2015

Catching this wine in its prime age - at the intersection of wisdom and youthful vibrancy.

Stew of sticky mahogany maraschino cherries and raspberry jam, cola and medicinal herbs. At once fruit, and other times chocolate fudge, always accents of mint and spruce.

Texture like old fashioned soda shop syrup - pulpy and viscous and mouth coating delicious.

Casa Madero

3V Valle de Parras Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2018

Really enjoyed this. Warm strawberry leather, blackberry, black cherry, and red plum sauce. Dusty earth, white pepper, pencil lead, hint of cocoa, and tobacco. Right at the intersection of old world earthiness with ripe (to slightly overripe) fruit. Excellent w Birria tacos. Decanted in advance.

Willamette Valley Pinot Gris

This is an AMAZING Pinot Gris. We love Pinot and this is the intersection of price and value — 4 years ago

Pierre Gonon

Les Iles Feray Pays de l'Ardèche Syrah 2017

Damn tasty and right at the intersection of ripe and savory. First day the fruit overwhelmed. Second day, the pepper/violet and meat/olives came out but there was still a lushness to the backbone — 4 years ago

Domaine Robert Chevillon

Bourgogne Passetoutgrain Gamay Pinot Noir Blend 2018

Dark, stoney blend of 1/3 Pinot and 2/3 Gamay. Shows as much as it's less finesse, more structure and grippy - at the intersection of mineral rich earth and fresh red berry. Notes of black pepper, graphite and cedar. Dark chocolate covered cherries and fruit leather strips. Quite a bit of tannin and earth finding it's way through too and right into flavors of fresh raspberries, bright cherries. — 2 years ago

9.0

This wine is the perfect intersection of quality and price. 15 bucks. Bracing acidity, bright fruit, salinity. I’ve had dozens of bottles of this wine over the years, and it never disappoints. — 4 years ago
