Reserva Viña Magna Ribera del Duero Red Blend 2019

V-Zug Studio, 11.2.26: Sicherlich ein schöner wein. Ganz mein geschmack wird es nicht sein. Schhöne himbeermarmelade, weiche struktur, zugänglich…Finaler eindruck: bleibt etwas zu alkoholisch. — 4 months ago

Weingut Tesch

Laubenheimer St. Remigiusberg Riesling 2021

Needs some air time to fully show its complexity. Intense nose has freshly-sliced green apple and loads of slatey minerality. In the mouth there’s intense acidity magna-leving the crisp green apple and citrus pith fruit and mineral notes. Not the most concentrated or lengthy but a great value. — 2 years ago

What an amazing wine. Super nose that jumps out at ya. Big cherry. Big big fucking cherry. Spices, plum, semi sweet cocoa, such aromas. Totally spellbinding. Also a sense of gamey, meaty and smokey aromas add complexity. Awesome. Palate is vibrant, deep and so juicy, with amazing fruit and terrific acid and structure. What concentration! This has tannins that are soft but ever present, but so velvety. So pure and dazzlingly fresh. Really long finish that takes over the palate. The purity of this is incredible. What a mouthfeel as well. 100% Gamay in Amphorae. — 9 years ago

Gamay in amphorae? Craziness. You being you, do you know the volume of those things? I'm figuring you do know...because that would be one aspect of being Fassy.

@Severn Goodwin the maths I’m not good at. Let me check. Might have added it to today’s offer.

Banfi

Magna Cum Laude Toscana Super Tuscan Blend 2017

This finally came together. This blend of Cab S, Merlot, San Giovese and Syrah is in a great spot.
Nose filled with sweet red fruit, ripe cherries and almond paste. The tanins are soft and the mouthfeel silky. Nice herb touch too. Paired with spaghetti with tomatoes/ preserved lemon/ honey/ cream sauce and that matched very very well.

Domaine Perrin Ch.

Aloxe-Corton Les Boutieres Pinot Noir 2016

What a playful, lively burgundy pinot! Rose petals and cherry, hay and an earthy thing. Quite inviting. The palate is wonderfully made, a strong acid drive, a silky mouthfeel which leaves a layer of tenderness on the sides and which lasts for ever, even after the fruity notes of the finish fade away, a good mater with great balance, a good, powerful mid palate with a power house of a fruit and gentle tannins that help this silky layer expand for ever. This is a serious burgundy Pinot, and I'd like to have that every time I pop up a bottle from these parts. Organic wine. It raised to challenge of a spicy (hot hot Trinidad scorpion hot) dish which is not usually a burgundy thing. — 5 years ago

Dark golden in color.

Nose of citrus, yellow apples, melons and spices.

Full-bodied and elegant with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with apples, lemons, oak, vanilla and Indian spices.

This is a very tasty Chardonnay from Lazio, Italy. Feels like a white Burgundy.

Showing nice complexity now, and feels young. Oaky and spicy. A good quality wine.
