Espectacle del Montsant

Montsant Garnacha 2017

Pronounced “Es-peck-tuckle dell Mont-sunt.” Located in so-called armpit of Spain’s prestigious wine country principally because of its rustic quality. Deep Ruby with intense fruit aromas and sweet floral spice, aged 15 mos in French oak, from a warm dry vintage. On the palate flavors of blackberry, plum and raspberry with currants, sweet cacao, floral & pepper spice. Fine big tannins, well balanced with long finish finesse, ending with herb and spice, adding slight alcohol warmth. — 2 years ago

Offputting aroma slants the view of this delicious 16-year-old petite Sarah. It drank wonderfully -tannins rounded fruit still- there seamless. — 8 years ago

Casa Lapostolle

Clos Apalta Special Label Red Blend 2011

Steve Peck- One of the truly finest Bordeaux style wines I've tasted. The tannins are aged and soft, while the fruit shows a wonderful freshness. Concentrated and ripe with no rough edges. — 8 years ago

Weingut Hermann Ludes

Klusserather Bruderschaft Auslese Saar Riesling 1994

Nose is aged Mosel Riesling. Some petrol. Hint of lemon peel. God’s Lemon perfume. Elegant. Light. Gorgeous. So fresh. Ethereal.

Palate hits you with dense meyer lemon soda. A kiss of acidity but a light kiss like a first date romantic lingering peck. Balanced. Delicious. Long. A kiss of honey from bees that pollenate lemon trees. Very clean. No botrytus. Coats the palate with aged Meyer lemon juice.

Wonderful. Very distinctive. Not a modern bomb of an auslese. A different ballgame. Totally different from the green apple-driven Mosel wines.

Bought from Fass Selections.

Steve Peck- Classic Oakville Cabernet with undeniable appeal. I love the oak integration and the ripe... But not overripe, fruit character. #cabernetday — 8 years ago

9.0

This is so good. A 40 gamay noir/60 cab franc blend with lots of style. Lovely red fruit, freshness all around with a *peck* of gravely soily whatever it is that makes these wines so fun. Leah Jørgensen is doing great things. — 5 years ago

Mind-altering aroma of rich, cherry cotton candy that lightly massages your tongue with a parting soft peck of spice. — 7 years ago

Grand Clos des Épenots Pommard 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2009

Steve Peck-A hint of raspberry shows through the framework of earthy minerality in this Premier Crus Burgundy and reminds me of why I enjoy Pinot Noir so much. — 8 years ago

Single Vineyard Los Lingues Carménère 2013

Steve Peck- The Chilean winemaking community has really perfected the art of Carmenere. This variety is known for herbaceous characters and requires exceptional care in the vineyard to achieve the best results. This single vineyard offering I found on a recent trip to Chile is one of the best I've tried. Big, Bordeaux-like structure, with a touch of mint. Amazing with braised short ribs. — 8 years ago
