Criolla Barreal Finca Maggio Uva Criolla Chica 2019

Delectable Wine
9.1

A Criolla Chica planted in Barreal, Calingasta, at 1,550 meters above sea level, up to 10% fermented in whole bunches. Terracotta in hue, it presents notes of strawberry, damp earth, herbs and traces of menthol as well as faint aromas of almond cookie and rum cake. Offers a complex mix of simple flavors; on the palate, the tannins are active with heightened freshness and a ruggedness that sticks to the gums, while the innate fruitiness comes out at the back of the throat. A great wine with a profile one rarely sees in reds on the local scene. (Joaquín Hidalgo, Vinous, October 2020) — 5 years ago

Octava Bassa Malbec

Blackberry and currant delight! A little sharp at first, a little lighter than other Malbecs but very good. Full bodied but not rich, yet super tasty. — 6 years ago

Anakota

Helena Dakota Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2003

Enjoyed this tasty and teenaged Anakota Cab at Amis in Philadelphia with a lively view of the kitchen and delicious steak. Rich and peppery with a bite. Lots of fun chatting with the kitchen crew and the rest of the team at Amis while witnessing some glorious dessert prep (pictured: melted chocolate in ramekins)... Thank you @Cara Zimmerman for the great recommendation! — 7 years ago

Bel Canto Cara Mia Vineyard Red Blend 2013

When in Rome (as they say) 75% Cab Franc, 25% Merlot. This needs air or you'll think it uninspiring (was best the next day). Violets and slight French oak nose. Smooth, clean blue fruits with tannins up front fading at mid palate. Med/short finish. Solid wine. — 8 years ago

Anam Cara

Nicholas Estate Vineyard Riesling 2019

Words “Anam Cara” are Celtic for “friend of my soul.” Nick and Sheila have made wines since planting grapes in 2001. Pale lemon with aromatic aromas of ripe tropical, stone & citrus fruits. On the palate tart apple and melon flavors, with a crisp citrus tang. Medium+ finish, vivid acidity with rich ending. Drinking well now. Nice value. — 5 years ago

Very interesting white, Posip. The closest analogue would be Torrontes.
Dry white wine that is strangely seductive, every sip entertains your palate and even your lips just like a kiss. Slightly heavier body and minimal fruit with grapefruit, pear, and green apple. Lovely Croatian creation;-)

Hohen-Sülzen Riesling 2017

Big wine. Lots of citrus, various citrus fruits entire, lemons especially and tart small oranges, cara cara oranges. Needs some air, let’s see how that grows. Big spice on the finish. Flowers, like Lilly and slight lavender. It’s a powerful nose, maybe somewhat unresolved, I have to see how it plays out. After some air lots of saffron and some plastic water bottle on the nose that grows. Beeswax. Honeysuckle. Lots of acid. Tons of acid. Needs some time I think. — 5 years ago

Čara Korcula 2016

Not knowing much about Croatian wine, we asked the advice of our waiter who's knowledge clearly exceeded the requirements of the majority of his job. A beautiful crisp, clean wine with a great balance of dry vs. fruit. — 8 years ago
