The Other Guys

Plungerhead Old Vine Lodi Zinfandel 2015

Nose of driv8ng by an oil refinery with fermented raspberries. Explosive astringent berry bomb. Far better than the one-dimensional petite sirah that they produce. — 7 years ago

2014. Much better than 2013. A little more dark fruit, floral and a lot less oil refinery/green coffee bean. Great value. — 9 years ago

Erdener Treppchen Spätlese Riesling

Mild lemon with hints of peach. Medium to full bodied. Yes there's oil, but think relaxing spa day (and not diesel refinery). Brilliant showing for an aged Mosel Spatlese ('93 Auslese of same estate to follow soon). Surely the petrol is coming soon, but right now it's sublime. I'd say drink it if you got it. — 10 years ago
