The Rude Mechanicals
Ziereisen
Schulen Spätburgunder 2014
Nose is lovely gunsmoke. Chocolate. Cherry coffee.
Palate is so ripping clean, mineral and juicy. Early season cherries. So good.
A 9.2 Out of the gate. What a great wine with food.
Freshness on this is insane. Tastes like a 2020.
The Bourgogne rouge they serve in heaven. All I need is pate, cornichons, cigarette smoke and some rude French waiters.

Highway 12 Winery
Sonoma County Cabernet Sauvignon 2016
Okay, yum. A smoky fruit forward deep purple wine with lovely soft tannins. Having it at a rooftop restaurant and being extremely rude by taking wine notes but hey, it be like that sometimes. Notes of currant, blackberry, chocolate. Very good. — 4 years ago
Château Font du Broc
Côtes de Provence Red Blend 2019
My favorite red from this stop along the wine trip - most beautiful vineyard, but rude staff. This was balanced but a bit light, and not too oak — a year ago
Château Pech-Ménel
Saint-Chinian Syrah Blend
Everything by this winery is textural perfection that speaks both to wealth and lithe limbs. Wine that knows how to be rich but not rude. Indeed it is silk and soigné — 3 years ago

Produttori del Barbaresco
Barbaresco Nebbiolo 2017
I broke my promise to myself not to ever buy Produttori again, after the rude reception we received in their Barbaresco store. It is slightly better than I remember.

Bardolino Chiaretto Rosè Corvina Blend 2019
Excellent rose; best I’ve ever had outside Provence. In fact, only rose I’ve ever truly loved outside Provence. Somehow it’s supremely refreshing (95* and humid), good with food, and continues to evolve with new flavors over two hours. Bought on recommendation from Phillip at The Wishing Well. Raspberries, vanilla, floral, with long subtlety-spiced finish. Drank at dad’s house with left over BBQed chicken from Rude BBQ. Very good pairing. Going to buy more tomorrow. — 4 years ago

2023 Textura Rosa, Valley de Guadalupe Mexico
One of the very few natural wines where I find the process (or lack of process?!) complimentary to the grape instead of diminutive or downright rude!
A mix of red fruit on the nose - both over ripe strawberry and ripe tart bing cherry.
The taste carries the tart bing cherry notes with a wonderfully fresh acidic finish. I would never guess that this was grown so far south of the 40th parallel
