Persnickety

Widow Jane

10 Years in American Oak Straight Bourbon Whiskey 2014

An $80 bottle of bourbon that drinks like a $120 bottle. A true find to impress even the most persnickety palate. — 8 years ago

This 2010 is facing a little Premox. I've stored it well, and bought it at a reputable source. At the same time it's tasty, just not quintessential Dag. The acid is there, and so is the sherry. I don't know, I'm a persnickety pedantic SOB, and I was hoping for an orgasmic volcano of flavor. With my Jamon Iberico Bellota and stinky French soft goat cheese it was a good foil. When I moved on to the gnocchi it was meh. But who am I? Just a consumer of drink I suppose. Cheers DD! You were a wild man and probably slightly crazier than I. — 9 years ago

Had the same one and was unimpressed. Was 2010 his last vintage? Not sure. I've been eyeing a SILEX at Bi-Rite for a while. Have you had that?

Oregon Pinot Noir 2012

Very nice Pinot-nice red fruit with a complex finish-strawberries, chocolate covered cherries, leather, very enjoyable — 10 years ago
