Boundary Breaks Vineyard

No. 239 Finger Lakes Dry Riesling 2017

Fresh cut cold apples, elderflower, the aroma of sweetness you might get from a lush glen on a hike, lavender.

Dry Reisling has become one of my favorite varietals because of this bottle that I first had a Michelin Guide restaurant in TriBeCa, called Little Park.

All the wine stores that listed carrying this wine, no longer had it. I finally tracked down the last 7 bottles in a small shop off Bedford Ave in Brooklyn. Of course, you can order the vintage online, but the adventure in the find was worth it.

Like silk, it wraps your whole mouth in a pashmina of well balanced flavor. Dry, sweet, savory, umami.

One of my favorites this summer. Hard to forget.

Felton Empire Vineyards

Tonneaux Français Pinot Noir 1983

What a pleasure! Made by Ridge (and a young Stephan Bedford) with Tepusquet fruit. Good ruby brick color and still has a burst of acid and light tannins. Great fruit leather, cigar box, very deep finish. Lots of life left in this one. And who says California wines don’t age? — 7 years ago

Flood Family Vineyards Riesling 1990

1990. Honeyed almonds, Fuji Apple, quince. Still quite balanced and bright. Truly amazing example of how California fruit can be made in old-world, age-worthy style. (Vinted by S. Bedford) — 9 years ago

Domaine du Bagnol

Marquis de Fesques Cassis White Blend 2014

A new wine for me. Bought at Bedford NY wine shop from Arthur who was very knowledgeable and fun to meet. Not sure if grape, maybe Rousanne and sauvignon . It tasted fruity, creamy and fresh. I think it went through malactic fermation. Good juice. — 8 years ago

Not as aromatic compared to younger Viognier but still fresh and lovely. Not too shabby for a 20 year old wine. — 8 years ago

Roche Winery

French Oak Reserve Carneros Chardonnay 2014

This Chardonnay is perfection. Nose of honey and stone fruit. The same flavor notes coat the entire mouth and finishes oh so smoothly. Paired fabulously with my Bedford Cheese Shop selections: Nababbo Taleggio, Prosciutto di Parma and Molinari Sopressata accompanied by a perfectly ripe plum. — 9 years ago

Rancho Sisquoc Winery

Santa Maria Valley Franken Riesling 1990

Wow! Lemon oil and a whiff of white peach or nectarine still comes through, along with that characteristic aroma if petrol. Great acid. Just a little bit of almond on the end, suggesting "some age". The color is still bright and youthful. Made by Stephan Bedford. — 8 years ago
