Freedom Hill Vineyard Pinot Noir 2016

Ming L
8.9

The nose opened with ripe blueberry and raspberry, but okay elements quickly took over. The theme continues on a very plush palate. Silky tannins.
Underwhelming for a flagship bottling.

Domaine de la Côte de l'Ange

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2010

La Côte de lAnge is not a top Ch. Neuf de P label. But it is a quality label of of the second tier that represents a good quality to price ratio. One would think that 2010 would be a high point, and maybe it is. But even 2010 is not a superior effort. Very intense, yet undefined, purple fruit and lots of menthol. It’s a pleasant and even intense drink. Nothing wrong. But not the highest expression of the terroir. — 2 years ago

Westhofener Trocken Riesling 2014

Kleur; lichtgerl@met hont va Granny Smith groen.
Geur, redelijk wat petrol, citrus, perzik.
Hoge zuren bij de eerste slok, maar naarmate de wijn minder koud is, meer mineraliteit en zachtere zuren. Lange afdronk en prettiger mondgevoel als de wijn duidelijk minder koud is.

L. Aubry Fils

Brut 1er Cru Champagne Blend

the aubry brothers—identical twins—make champagnes of real character and intensity, putting to use of some of the region’s half-forgotten ancient varieties like arbanne, petit meslier, and fromenteau. their meunier-dominant non-vintage brut isn’t your usual entry-level bottle, either: aromatic, rich, and deeply mineral, it seems to feel both weightless and incredibly dense. this is champagne with a point of view, and, better, one you don’t need to own a hedge fund to enjoy—you’ve wasted $40 on something more frivolous than this. anyway... i remain convinced that most of the world’s misunderstandings could be solved in a single evening with the right champagne on the table. — 4 years ago

Montegrilli Langhe Nebbiolo 2019

Clear garnet with gem-like highlights. Inviting nose of violets and black tea. Palate is medium full bodied and echoes the nose adding black cherry from entry and a bit of tar on the lingering finish. Well structured with assertive (but not aggressive) medium plus tannins and medium plus acidity. A Langhe that portends what’s to come when the 2019 twins of Barolo and Barbaresco are released in a few years. It’s already an excellent match for for hearty beef and pork dishes, but priced so that you can take it to the pizzeria or upscale your take out. I can’t wait for the big boys either, but enjoy this now through 2029 or so. — 2 years ago
