Hipping Riesling 2016

Our Lunar New Year celebrations kicked off with this absolute beauty hailing from one of my favourite vineyards anywhere. Kabi-like sweetness with GG-level extract! An auslese feinherb perhaps?

So fragrant. Floral, herbal, and mineral (ranging from flint to sea spray), with a melange of fruits like pineapples, candied lemons, fresh limes and even grapefruits (especially on day 3). Very pure, juicy, and salty on the palate, with an uber-long and energetic finish. I felt that this was a less structured and fruiter version of the 13’ we had not long ago, but the overall profile and my love for it was similar.

Goose Island

Bourbon County Brand Stout Aged In Bourbon Barrels 2017



2019: Blackest stout with a grainy, dark chestnut head that quickly reduces to
Polished black marble with a lunar nebula central. Single arches lacing. Molasses and licorice nose, dark chocolate, rich Turkish coffee, tobacco, caramel, coconut oak smolders through the last sniff. Really well integrated first sip. Powerful and sensually abundant, black licorice extract, chicory coffee, vanilla extract, pecans, dark brown sugar, toffee, mocha for the mileage.

La Capella Chevreux-Bournazel Champagne Blend

1st Jan 2023. Disgorged Jan 2020. Champagne of the night. Beautiful wine. Complex, full bodied.

100% Pinot Meunier from the 2014 harvest. Aged for 10 months in oak barrel plus another 5 years on lees without malolactic conversion, batonnage, cold stabilisation, filtration or fining and with very little added sulphur. The champagne’s elevage process strictly follows the lunar calendar. Zero dosage. Only 234 bottles and limited magnums produced.
[Tasting notes for the 2013 vintage:] “An expansive and highly energised nose: buttered toast, roasted almond, marzipan, mandarin orange and lemon rind. There is an extra layer of depth and precision here, thanks to the long lees ageing as well as the vintage factor. Electric energy and really palate-saturating. Penetrating and complex with an impressive drive and focus. Mouthfilling towards the finish but the wine is always held together by a tremendous tension. Again, an uncommon elegance and harmony for something so electrifying, as well a rare mouthfeel of silky plushness. Absolutely memorable.” AC
