Castelli di Jesi Classico Superiore Verdicchio 2021

A light to light medium body with a color of fresh straw, with a distinctive pale green hue to the edges, this was a perfect pairing for crawfish. Really good crisp, with notes of sour green apple, lemon or key lime rind, and pineapple on the nose. The taste is crisp with a beautiful acidity, mineral driven but tastes green as well, like underripe citrus, mango or melon, a fresh salinity, grassy and flower stems, with a mouth drying mineral finish. This was very refreshing, easy to drink, and a great substitute for a dry Riesling for Asian or spiced flavors. — a year ago

Palate has Key lime flesh, cold tangerine slice, apricot skin, wet-pulverized limestone, lemongrass, tangerine zest, (minor) dried apricot and light honey on the medium finish, medium acid, great balance.

Moscato d'Asti 2021

Bright, pale straw in color. Brief white mousse and tiny, "frizzantini" bubbles. Abundant nose of white flowers, echoed on the light palate which adds overripe peach and red apple. Juicy acidity balances the fruity sweetness. A lingering finish rounds it out. Perfect standard bearer for the appellation that many try to imitate. Balance is key, making an excellent sipper or accompaniment to fresh fruit or spicy dishes (like my Voodoo pasta)! Drink now. — a year ago

Château Lynch-Bages

Grand Cru Classé Pauillac Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 1961

From a great looking bottle with a VTS fill. Slow ox’d for 2 hours then decanted an hour before drinking. Amber tawny color. Ethereal nose. Notes of black cherries, roses, cola, rhubarb, barnyard, gravel and some menthol. Still has a good core of fruit. Some tobacco notes develop and the cola thing becomes stronger with air in a glass. Impactful finish. After about 90 min this started a decline. At its peak this was ethereal and amazing. The key is to time the opening, air time and consumption to find it at its best. — 4 years ago
