A.D. Beckham Amphora Vermentino 2016

Pale yellow white in color. Floral, citrus notes in nose. Crisp minerality, a touch of spritz, citrus, vanilla and slight peach flavor, creamy lemon and lime peel finish and aftertaste, some skin astringency on center of tongue, no real bitterness. Decent food wine, good varietal character — 7 years ago

A.D. Beckham Amphora Blanc

Lychee, blood orange, candies citrus, almonds, candle wax, carnations. Rounded acidity, juicy texture, medium bodied, grapefruit rind-tart citrus, salty finish. Interesting oddity, might be the ultimate brunch wine. This rating is for the Riesling NOT Vermentino. — 7 years ago

Gagliole

Rubiolo Chianti Classico Sangiovese 2013

Gagliole is an ancient property sitting at 1640 feet above seal level. HOwever, having undergone a vine reintegration process, the vines are no older than 30 years. State Archives in Siena mention the estate as far back as 994 A.D. The Sangiovese vines enjoy exposure to the south-southwest, nestled between the gentle Chianti hills. A blend of 90% Sangiovese and 10% merlot, it is an enjoyable and easy going red. Vibrant cherry, plum, spice and a hint of leather together with well balanced tannins give the expected crisp Chianti Classico flavours sought by many. Approachable now or within the next 3-5 years. Great value!

Liz, I am from soda city too. Where are you finding your wines? I feel like I keep seeing the same old wines at Bottles, TW, and Morganelli’s. Also great wine. I made a side trip to Wachau and ate at the Weingut Knoll. Amazing wine region.

Awesome! Most of what you see from me is available via special order from Adam at Morganelli's. I work for Grassroots Wholesaler- we carry the Skurnik, Schatzi and David Bowler portfolios- lots of amazing Austrian and German finds in there-

Vintage Brut Champagne Blend 2008

Fint vin med alla underbara champagne-drag. Knallpulver, nektar och mineralsälta. Perfekt balanserad munkänsla. Hade den varit lite längre i syran hade poäng blivit högre. Mycket stabil och prisvärd. — 8 years ago

Wow! Pinot Noir fermented in amphora, inspired by Elisabetta Foradori. Earthy, mineral, a little smoky. — 4 years ago

Elixir Pinot Noir - Chardonnay Rosé Champagne Blend

9.3

A pleasant surprise, albeit showing a hint of maturity on the palate.
Nose displays strawberries with a wisp of mushrooms. Palate is bold and vigorous. This all about energy power. Overall, excellent. I just caught this in its old man phase. Certainly, a producer to watch.
Mo wasn’t feeling it, but I have assumed editorial liberties (and it came from our cellar).

Interesting but did not show varietal character and reminded me of a cool climate Syrah. Shy nose, inky color, and noticeable saline that could be coming from amphora. Would try again in another vintage. — 7 years ago
