Castello di Verrazzano

Chianti Classico Sangiovese Blend 2019

A ripe, full, balanced Chianti. Color is fairly saturated. Nose shows dark black cherry, intense and rich minerality, lots of pencil lead (no, we’re not in Pauillac, Toto). In the mouth, it’s on the more sedate, less acidic side, with almost rich flavors of cherry and liquid stones. Finish is very long, with lowish acids for a Tuscan Sangiovese, and quite a bit of tannin, though it is well obscured and integrated. Not a pizza wine, though that’s what I opened it with. Like a Brunello, this would shine with a grilled steak. — a year ago

Les Pierrières Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs Champagne Chardonnay

Skvele, ciste, plnejsi, krasna kyselinka. Vyborne. Pierrières is a 1.2 ha vineyard located in the village of Vert-Toulon. In Pierrières, the chalk in the vineyard is extremely close to the surface and mixed with black silex.

Pierrières is powerful, racy and penetratingly complex. It covers an incredibly wide range, from layers of citrus to stone fruits, stony minerality, smoke and herbs. There’s an amazing radiant expansiveness to the wine. Olivier Collin začal v Congy vinařit tak, že v roce 2003 obnovil 4,5 ha vinic, které jeho rodina pronajímala. Koupil si starý traktor, pluhy a začal kultivovat zemi. Poté zakoupil použité burgundské sudy. Vinařskému umění se učil u Anselma Selosse, na vinici používá organické přípravky a postupy, všechna svá vína fermentuje alkoholicky i malolakticky spontánně v 220l dubových sudech, nefiltruje je ani nečiří. Dosage drží na hranici Extra Brut nebo ji nepřidává.Terroir Côtes de Sézanne je zcela unikátní, neboť v křídovém masívu se skrývají uhlíkaté formy pazourku a onyxu. Toto podloží je zcela ojedinělé v celé Champagni. Dnes Olivier obhospodařuje 8,75 ha vinic, nicméně roční produkce činí pouze 30 000 lahví.

Vinařství ULYSSE COLLIN produkuje autentická, jednoodrůdová vína, která jsou zastoupena jen v těch nejlepších podnicích světa. Olivierova vína jsou neuvěřitelně harmonická, charakterní a věrně v sobě odrážejí vinice, ze které pocházejí.

Flora Springs

Soliloquy Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc 2013

We're not in Marlborough County anymore, Toto. Forget the cat pee SBs, this is done right. Smooth, soft mineral. Some floral tones. Smells like factory roses. (Flower, not the wine) — 9 years ago

Allagash Brewing Company

Curieux Belgian-Style Golden Ale

A nice summer brew with 10.2 abv. We’re not in Mexico anymore Toto!
Even though I do enjoy a nice Modelo during the heat, but it’s just not very strong or flavorful compared to a bourbon barrel aged beer

Love Allagash. Drank a good bit when up in Maine years ago.

Wilson Creek

Five Paws Vineyard Double Dog Red Red Blend 2014

Cigars and ripe red cherries on the nose. Red apples from the Wizard of Oz trees and smoked bing cherry on the palate. Click your heels, Toto. We’re not in Kansas anymore. Grab your broomstick and take flight with this delightful berry manifestation. Or take shelter. This berry hurricane is headed straight for your mouth. — 6 years ago

Love the artistic pic.

Tio Toto

Sherry Pedro Ximénez

The colour of Coke, lovely molasses and Christmas pudding on nose. So thick, sweet and long with just about enough acidity. Amazing value in small quantities. — 3 years ago
