Chiasmus White Wine 2016

Interesting white from Tony Coturri’s assistant winemaker and poured by Tony at RawWine LA yesterday. Booth was crowded so just stuck my glass in for a pour. Didn’t get to ask what it was. A little dark, cloudy. Tasty though... — 7 years ago

Travel & Leisure just named baltimore the coolest city in America. I'd like to think my presence had something to do with that title. :) as for the wine- doesn't everything taste like heaven on a rooftop deck within smelling distance of the bread factory? — 7 years ago

La Luna Vin de Pays de la Côte Vermeille Red Blend 2013

9.4

I had a hate-hate relationship with Grenache for a long time (alcohol, lack of acid, lots of high-extraction style winemaking), but this is one of the wines that turned me around on the variety when @Caleb Ganzer served me a bottle a few years ago. Red fruited, meaty, peppery, with plenty of red flower perfume. This is clean, low-intervention winemaking, with only a little appealing pinch of VA. There's a slightly chubby texture, but trim acid keeps the wine moving forward. Somehow this wine would appeal to the Burgundy drinker, as well as the California Pinot drinker, and you know, people who like Grenache. A screaming deal at $25-ish. — 9 years ago

Bourgogne Passetoutgrain Gamay Pinot Noir Blend 2013

Amazing strawberry-brick-earth notes on the nose. The finish is exactly what you'd expect for gamay- not too exciting or bold but perfect for enjoying with cheese. I owe Caleb for sharing this one with me! A favorite. Sharing with my coworkers. — 7 years ago

Clonakilla

Canberra District Shiraz Viognier 2015

Holy smokes! Really need to get myself a bottle. B&S summed up the wine perfectly:

This is near immaculate. Match a consistently revered wine with a once-in-a-lifetime vintage and what you get is a rare and illusive gem.

Perfectly warm days and cool, steady nights allowed for ideal growing conditions in Clonakilla’s famed vineyards. With the ability to pick fruit at their own leisure, Tim Kirk and his team gained full fruit ripeness, balanced phenolic complexity and even increased the whole bunches to 30% for each ferment. The sensorial odyssey begins with perfumed florals and aromas of spice, charcuterie and wild herbs; before bright red and blue berries emerge on the palate. There’s a line of savoury richness which seamlessly interplays with the wine’s elegant tannin structure, however, what truly marks the experience is the complexity that each mouthful delivers. An immediate classic.
