La Loma & Los Santos Garnatxa Blanca - Macabeo Blend 2019

Years ago in a blind tasting of Spanish white wines a wine friend surprised us all. The quality of the wines was stunning at the most of us praised the wines and labelled them as Montrachet here, Montrachet there.

It was a humble experience and we all learned that day some important lessons. This wine is another great example of Vino Blanco and it delivers overall.

👃The nose delivers great purity and finesse, it’s a party in the nose of wild flowers and soft citrus tones. It’s a feast to smell this kind of nose.

👄In the mouth the wine is pure and powerful in the same time, it’s a wine that has great intensity but is waving very light through my mouth, it’s like pure silk.

💰💰This is a no brainer for me and with around €50,00 it’s not cheap but considering the crazy prices in the white Burgundy wine world it’s cheap.

🕰This is great drinking now but can and will develop in bottle in the upcoming years.

Delicious! Takes me back to our time in Montefioralle. Will be delish with pizza but due to circumstances, enjoyed with cheddar goldfish. — 3 years ago

Château Lagrange

Saint-Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 2014

2014 vintage. Decanted and tasted immediately and after 45 minutes. Zero sed on the decant. Medium body. Was expecting it to be a little bigger. Graphite/lead pencil and some funk in the nose. The funk blew off after 10-15 mins. Flavors presented as lean and mean with plenty of baking chocolate and earth waving hello. Likely needed two solid hours in the decanter before pestering. 1.11.24. — 3 months ago

From my goldfish-like memory, this was quintessential burg, with the usual nosebleed coming along for the ride. Notes of crème brûlée combine with a waxy mouthfeel. Muted acidity indicates that you need to be in a certain frame of mind to approach this. — a year ago

Oak Leaf Vineyards

California Sauvignon Blanc

An older neighbors wife is in the hospital so we’ve been bringing him food and helping w chores. This morning he saw me and raced out of his garage waving this bottle over his head. He thanked us for the food deliveries and gifted us the bottle as he recently quit alcohol. As you can see, it is the worst wine I’ve had in a long time, and yet it’s also the best wine I’ve had in a long time. — a year ago

Tribaut-Schloesser

L'authentique Brut Champagne Blend

Heady open of ginger and tea spices, with lemongrass and graham cracker, a touch of sandalwood, passing allspice and flowering lime. Lime pulp roundly, and lemon zest waving, invite tart starfruit and subdued pineapple aspects. Gorgeous gliding finish with a soft and silky landing. Texturally perfect! .
