Domaine du Bagnol
Cassis Clairette Blend 2013
Crisp and refreshing Provençe white, roast chicken or patio wine. Thanks @Max Kogod and #kogodwinemerchant ! — 10 years ago
Vignobles Brunier ( Frédéric & Daniel Brunier )
Mégaphone Ventoux Grenache Syrah 2013
This is just great. Plenty of fruit, but not over ripe or over extracted, ample acidity to refresh the palate, complicating herbs and savory to keep the interest up. Southern Rhone in my sweet spot. Thanks @Max Kogod and #kogodwinemerchant ! — 10 years ago
Domaine De La Grand'Cour (Jean-Louis Dutraive)
Les Clos Cuvée Vielles Vignes Fleurie Gamay 2014
The 2014 Domaine De la Grand'Cour Le Clos Fleurie is my current obsession, but these were all delicious and fun to taste back to back (to back to back...). A study in granite, flowers and crunchy red fruit. Thanks for the great event @Max Kogod and #kogodwinemerchant, and thanks for hosting @Molly Brooks-Thornton and #bankershillrestaurant — 10 years ago
Idlewild
Fox Hill Vineyard Cortese 2013
Surprising weight and texture, partial skin fermentation, partial direct press. Geeky wine more than a crowd pleaser, and really needs food. I dig it. #kogodwinemerchant — 11 years ago
Thibaud Boudignon
Anjou Chenin Blanc 2013
Great tension between tart citrus, riper guava and a crystalline, rocky core. Yum. Thanks @Max Kogod and #kogodwinemerchant . — 11 years ago
Alzinger
Dürnsteiner Federspiel Riesling 2013
Heirlooms, burrata, basil, Riesling. That is all. #kogodwinemerchant — 10 years ago
Domaine Georges Vernay
Les Terrasses de l'Empire Condrieu Viognier 2014
I generally don't care for viognier. I love Condrieu. I wish it weren't so expensive. Such a mineral core in this wine - just a baby with years to go. Thanks @Max Kogod and #kogodwinemerchant ! — 10 years ago
Bernard Levet
La Chavaroche Côte-Rôtie Syrah 2009
Lovely after being open a while. Blue fruit, violets, smoked meat - wild and feral without being weighty. Northern Rhone case study. Thanks @Max Kogod and #kogodwinemerchant ! — 10 years ago
Chateau la Grande Roche
Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2013
Fantastic herbal streak here; probably leaves folks wanting traditional Napa Cab wanting a bit more there, there. For me, beautifully understated and captivating, and especially nice at this price point. #kogodwinemerchant — 11 years ago
Hofgut Falkenstein
Niedermenniger Sonnenberg Spätlese Feinherb Riesling 2013
Bottle 2 of #kogodwinemerchant Riesling 6-pack. Minerals and lemon on the nose. Feels dry as a bone with bracing acidity...mandatory food wine. Coravin used. — 11 years ago
J. B. Becker
Rauenthaler Wülfen Spätlese Riesling 1990
Just killer with a roast pork loin and fennel chutney. What it may lack in zippy energy it more than makes up for with burnished complexity, depth and persistence. The joys of older Riesling. Yum. — 10 years ago
Tardieu-Laurent
Cuvée Speciale Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhône Blend 2007
CdP just isn't my jam, even when it's as idiosyncratic as this. Intellectually compelling, but I struggle with the enjoyment. That said, this killed it at the tasting, so it's a me issue. Thanks @Max Kogod and #kogodwinemerchant ! — 10 years ago
Hofgut Falkenstein
Niedermenniger Herrenberg Spätlese Feinherb Riesling 2013
Lovely drink with some spicy lamb curry...crisp as hell with acidity in a very good way. A great way. Time to re-up on another Riesling curated case with @Max Kogod and #KogodWineMerchant — 10 years ago
Corison Winery
Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2010
Yes, this is a good recipe for Napa Cab. Amazingly balanced and of modest proportions, the Prince Charming in a room full of loudmouth buffoons. #kogodwinemerchant — 11 years ago
Schäfer-Fröhlich
Bockenauer Trocken Riesling 2009
Thanks #kogodwinemerchant for putting together a Riesling 6-pack...tried two tonight with coravin. What a lovely distinct nose of citrus and hint of petrol. Would buy again...but only from @Max Kogod — 11 years ago

My favorite of the #kogodwinemerchant rosé tasting. — 9 years ago
