Only way to drink in Munich. Had the choice of Alkoholfrei or this one, even thou its only 10:00 I need the real deal.

Cloudy with a orange hue. Light on the nose with some coriander, orange peel and floral notes. Smooth and rounded on the palate with similar notes to the nose but a touch more spices. Medium bodied with a medium length finish. Solid wheat beer.

Deep ruby. A touch of baking spices, and blueberries. A little savory undertone. Moderate tannins (6/10) and a bit dry in the long finish. Medium bodied max. Palate has a a nice texture with some red fruits. Drink till 2025.

Was opened last night thou, night, will definitely have a bigger kick and more power on day one. Would like to try that.

Darioush

Signature Napa Valley Merlot 2012

9.5

Merlot gets a bad rap. Everyone always quotes Paul Giamatti's Sideways line: "I'm not drinking any f#*%ing merlot!"... could one sentence bear so much weight?! Apparently the bias was formed when producers sacrificed quality for quantity when the varietal became popular. Even thou it's more of a blending grape, I am a big fan of a good Merlot. And at our wine dinner Thur, I liked Darioush's Merlot just as much as the Cab (and it was half the price). Lots of fruit and softer in a way. (Softer is undervalued these days) — 9 years ago

As I put my sweet baby girl to bed after a looong day, snuggling with her in her new "big girl bed", I found a stray eyelash on her cheek. Maybe I'm alone in this, but for as long as I can remember I have been superstitiously transferring these from one finger to another...and if I blow the lash off while making a wish, "they" say it will come true. I tried wishing this was a 2007 Screaming Eagle - or that I could magically be beamed onto David Lentine's Napa trip for the night (ha!). Alas, no such luck. Seriously thou, with my kids' lashes, I have always wished the same thing: "may you have a wonderful life." But I made this addition: "may you always have the courage to be yourself." #inthistogether #overturnHB2 #onlylove — 9 years ago

Kale Broken Axle Napa Valley Syrah Grenache 2012

Greg Ballington
9.6

Last red from Kale Anderson's personal wine project, Kale Wines. Darker ruby red than the Home Run Cuvée with some purplish hues. This bottle was tasted over four days and it was needed. Day one (92): Nose was tight with slight heat and back end of berries (both red and dark, more dark thou) with some dark plums. You could easily see this is a super extracted wine. Plush with dark dark fruits, creme de cassis, and some light baking spices. No heat on the palate. Heavy tannins (8/10) and full bodied with a super long finish. Day two (93+): Still a little bit of heat on the nose. Still crazy powerful on the palate, huge punch of baking spices, caramel and vanilla. Still needs time to fully integrate. Day three and four (96): Heat has dissipated on the nose but still loaded with the dark fruits and spices. The palates complexity definitely started to show, slight spiciness, and lots of dark cocoa espresso beans. So delicious, voluptuous and stunning. We could sit and drink this wine all day. Stunning value and we might have to try and grab some. Drink till 2030. — 9 years ago
