To me this is Finger Lakes GG. Tons of minerality, great balance, fruit. Always delicious. — 4 days ago

Blend of Riesling, Valvin Muscat, and Gerwetztraminer. Off dry, very floral. Lemon- lime, crisp and bright. Good acidity- finish is a little thin- but quite refreshing. I’m not a huge fan of off- dry whites, but this is pleasant — 3 months ago

A little reward for one of the cooks (me) after getting the Christmas Eve meat sauce simmering. (My sister-in-law is doing the fish sauce, if you’re wondering.) Fresh, appley, minerally nose. Very perfumed and deeply aromatic. Great balance on the palate. Bone dry, some fruit, deep stony minerals. Crisp acids. Lovely. — 10 months ago

Hybrid grape fixes this an interesting note that one usually doesn’t get in dessert wine. Cross of expensive perfume / gasoline / grapefruit pith. Also has an interesting reddish tint. — 12 days ago

Still hanging in there. Nose is clearly diminished, but the wine still rocks. Minerally, like it was filtered through slate. Apple, pear, still a touch of petrol. Little honeysuckle? So good. — 3 months ago

Deep purple. No vegetal notes on nose. Mellow tannins, fruity, but not jammy. This is very nice. I generally don’t enjoy cab franc so much due to green pepper/ herb thing. But it’s subtle and way in the background here. Quite nice. — 2 months ago

Light, but still full bodied. Paired it tonight with the steak recipe the winery suggested, and it was amazing! — 8 months ago

This is very much like a Bourgogne Rouge or Sancerre rouge from a top-tier domaine. Pale color. Very precise nose shows deep, just-ripe, pure cherry, a slight herbal note, and lots of crushed stone, seemingly on the limestone end of the spectrum. Intense but light-footed in the mouth, there’s deep, tart-but-ripe cherry fruit initially, turning savory and minerally on the long finish. Crisp acids. Very nicely done. Thanks to my brother Angelo for the gift! — a year ago
