DipWSET, CMS 2. I like wine, pie, and laughter. Also dark things and cats.
Bright and fun—vibrant strawberry jam and sort of a sourdough starter element square off with herbal intrigue. — 12 days ago
Sooo refreshing chock full of pink grapefruit and wet river stone vibes. Share share share! — 13 days ago
Fun combo of underripe peach/nectarine and white flowers and then I thought iris flower but I’ve been smelling the plant life outside my building. But this is delightfully fresh and floral in one happy scoop! — 2 days ago
Stunning fuschia (like a level up from electric pink)! Full with fine bubbles and ripe but also savory ripe cherry (verging on Ludens in a good way) with an almost nutty finish. So damn good. — 7 days ago
A little and earthy on the nose, with supreme bubbles and a good contrast of ripe berries and white toast. — 13 days ago
Amped up Fresca with a bit of alcoholic bite. I’m friggin’ in love. It’s your day drink it’s your aperitivo, it’s your I-don’t-want-to-get-trashed it’s also DELICIOUS. Win win win win wine(ish). — 15 days ago
Just a touch (2%) Viognier keeps this Shiraz shockingly elegant and giving of florality (sensual!), while the rich red fruit, black olive and green peppercorn add a touch of brawn and breadth to the slightly textured but surprisingly ripe tannins, leading into blueberries and (again) ripe but lifted finish. Well done, cool-climate Aussie wines! — 6 days ago
Rich but bright, passionate and full of color and flavor. The proper volley between fruit and baguette. Serious but doesn’t take itself so. — 9 days ago
A very energetic mouthful, somehow ripe and pulling it own weight (with acidic towing equipment) so you don’t feel the weight but you know it has a body, like me in an empire waist dress. Zingy ripe raspberry makes friends with preserved lemon while white toast and white pepper duel it out as to who is the loudest (but not the whitest we know the toast wins that). Really a delicious steal from Tasmania. — 14 days ago

The classic caramel/baking spice notes crop up on the nose but cut with fresh apple cider. The palate follows suit, bringing pear and citrus into the fold. The body is a medium-plus premise, and while the flavor profile verges on rich and the alcohol elevated, somehow, it all integrates into more than the sum of its parts. New bottle look, dependable, delicious taste! — 2 days ago
