La Closerie du Grand Poujeaux

Moulis en Médoc Merlot Blend 1998

It’s ok. Age doesn’t always equal quality! #garagiste — 7 months ago

La Fiorita

Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2015

Opulent fruit, soft tannins, fragrant anise, rosemary, sage, toasty notes. Very good. #garagiste — a year ago

Kiona Vineyards

Red Mountain Gewürztraminer 2016

The smell of a fresh ripe pear.

Medium to heavy weight, candied ginger, apricot, star fruit. Deliciously bright acidity with a touch of effervescence. Aged to perfection- I could see this getting Interesting in 10 years. Yet so freaking good right now.
Golden drops of absolute pleasure.

Nice find, can’t say I’ve had Red Mtn Gewurz and it sounds really solid - how’s price point?

@Trixie , @Sharon B 🥂 @ESF I believe it was 16 - shipping to east coast is about 4$ a btl, so 20 altogether. This was a #garagiste pick.

Moutard Pere et Fils

Champ Persin Cote des Bar Champagne Chardonnay

I opened this bottle and it was completely flat. Disappointing! But not fair to rate it. The flavor profile was still interesting, so I mixed it with seltzer water for a spritz. Really not bad, but obviously not what I was hoping for. #garagiste — 8 months ago

Tenuta Serradenari

La Vetta Barolo Nebbiolo 2016

Excellent. Red cherry and black fruit, ripe fruit (but not cooked or stewed) forest floor, chewy tannins. 14% alc., seemed higher. #garagiste — a year ago

Eric Forest

Pouilly-Fuissé Les Crays Chardonnay 2013

2013 Vintage. 13% ABV. Nice fruit, minerality and acid. Went nicely with truffle goat cheese pappardelle. #garagiste — 3 years ago

Abadia Retuerta

Selección Especial Estate Grown Sardon de Duero Tempranillo Blend 2014

Pencil shavings, red and black fruit, spice, leather. Great QPR. #garagiste — a year ago

I Pentri

Pietra Della Volpe Aglianico 2011

Old and bitter vinegar, lacking flavor and depth. Doesn’t smell corked, but really not good. Had to pour it out and replace with a decent Langhe Rosso for pasta night #garagiste — a year ago

TR Wines

Sea Saw Walla Walla Valley Red Blend 2013

2013 Vintage. 14.5% Alcohol. Really good Walla Walla, WA red. Good fruit and acidity and very little WAWA funk. Preferred over Cayuse for that reason. Another #garagiste deal. — 3 years ago
