Revival Trocken Mosel Riesling 2013

Lyle Fass
9.5

Gorgeous and mature QBA with outrageous length, acids and texture. Just an awesome wine and really showing well. 9.5 for an 11 year old QBA? This really is stunning. The length is inconceivable for a wine of this pedigree. And that haunting texture. Wow! — 3 months ago

@Lyle Fass stoked to try them.

Clos Mogador

Priorat Red Blend 2013

See previous Delectable note. I love this style of wine - also a great back story. Black cherry, red licorice, dried plum - ripe and intoxicating on the nose. Slaty, minerally even gravelly yet full bodied and savoury with plush rich fruit, Mediterranean herbs like fennel. You need to taste this wine while watching the Documentary, “Dreaming of Wine “ about the pioneers of the revival of Priorat, like Rene Barbier, the creator of Clos Mogador which I am sipping while watching. Makes me want to buy more Priorat. We are planning a visit there in May this year. 49% Garnacha, 25.% Carinena, 16% Syrah, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. — 3 years ago

I loved this wine when it was first released in the mid-late nineties. I held near a case of the 2002 and 2003 but found that, at that time the wines felt less balanced with bottle age and the alcohol dominated. I understand that the style has evolved, with less extraction, less ripeness and less new wood, so I'm glad to see that more recent vintages are aging so well.

Thanks for your insights Andrew. I’m just considering a purchase from Montsant, the near northern neighbour to Priorat.

The Teeling Whiskey Co.

Revival Aged 15 Years Single Malt Irish Whiskey Muscat Barrels

St. Patrick’s in style. This is the muscat finish which was not overpowering but I think will be better once the bottle gets a bit of air (just cracked tonight). The 18 is a bit more potent/concentrated right out of the gate compared to the 15 but does have more depth. Need to try again on a couple of weeks. — 2 years ago

Medici Ermete

I Quercioli Reggiano Lambrusco Secco

Nose is bubbly cherries. Taste is fun, effervescent with strawberry and dry finish. This would trick the heck out of someone. Looks like a heavy red wine, but taste like a sparkling. Revival Market virtual event with Alessandro Medici from Italy. — 4 years ago

Alta

Revival Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

Bordelaise in style. Fresh plum, forest berries, cracked peppercorn, with hints of all spice and clove. Elegant red cherry, cassis, and baking spice coat the palate with lifted acidity over time tannin. Milk chocolate shavings and plum lead on the mid palate. Finish pits a pine sap character against bold world acidity and cherry jubilee type fruit. Balanced well. Needed a couple hours of air to open up. Drink or hold for 10 years. — 5 years ago

Dominio del Aguila

Pícaro del Águila Viñas Viejas Ribera del Duero Tempranillo 2016

This outstanding clarete by Jorge Monzón of Dominio del Águila has emerged as the benchmark for the revival of Clarete. Sourced from old vineyards in La Aguilera, it is a blend of approximately 35% Tempranillo, 35% Albillo and other red and white grapes such as Bobal, Bruñal, Garnacha and Pirulés, all co-planted and fermented together. Complex, vibrant, just perfect to spend a hot summer afternoon.
