Is there another gear when you ratchet up your wine experience?
Clos de la Tech Pinot tasting -- outstanding craftsmanship and pursuit of quality. Intro of 2012 vintage features several stars, led by Cote de Sud -- truly a nugget among semi-precious gems. And then...back to the residence for 2012 Mastro Janni Brunello (swell) followed by 2009 Brigaldara Amarone (special). And then...out comes the 2000 Quintarelli Valpolicella -- is there another level, an overdrive gear from here? Arguably NO, this Quintarelli answers every question wine consumers may conjure. Yes, I believe this is the destination! — 8 years ago

Don't let the boring low tech label fool you. This is a snappy little IPA with an uncharacteristically buttery mouth feel and ever so subtle citrus overtone on moderately bitter base. Yeah. Triangulate on that. — 10 years ago

Acacia and lemon, with light oak backbone, slightly oily but mostly show up on mineral side. Some tech data I found. It is a blend from about 40 parcels from Fuisse & Pouilly, and each of them is vinified separately. After blend is created part of it, is aged in oak barrels (mostly old barrels) and around 30% is stored in stainless steel to retain minerality and fruitiness. Blending tech seems to work resulting reach, fresh and balanced wine. — 10 years ago

85% Verdejo 15% Chardonnay - not registered to a Consejo Reguladora. Is Central Castile another name for Castilla La Mancha or what? Where do I go for a tech sheet? — 9 years ago

A big solid wine. Needs time to open and breathe to tech full potential. Big juicy red fruit big body. Complexity. Even some hints of pepper. — 10 years ago

This wine is impossible. Thor's barbells balanced on a tightrope with a dancing bear on the other end. Such power. Such grace. Intoxicating, concentrated peach and nectarine sorbet are matched with lime and tangerine sour rock candy. White tea, jasmine, and honeysuckle flowers effuse. Everything is staggeringly intense, but the wine really kicks into 5th gear when the heady saffron and porcini Botrytis-driven aromatics hit. I don't even care that I'm mixing metaphors, but it's a peacock in full show. Take a sip and watch the nuclear-powered laser of the wine's acid seamlessly resolve the lush texture given by the wine's hundreds of grams of residual sugar. I had no idea TBA could have a dry finish, but here we are. I would love to see a tech sheet for this wine. One of the most unbelievable, amazing wines I've ever tried. — 10 years ago

A very forward and seductive wine all purchased fruit and only 3 barrels produced david rudnick a Californian that I has transplanted in 1992 with his family formerly in the tech business and fell in love with wine while studying in Italy. A light and savory wine with silky smooth tannins and a light savory finish notes of red licorice spice. Very nuanced through the finish. Excellent — 11 years ago

This is a very great wine to share with a nice fire, some ski socks, long johns and a movie. I chose to watch "Taken 3" while I drank it. Great flick. Anyhoo, my good friend, Ali from Pakistan gave me several bottles as a wedding gift (he's a tech wizard from the Bay Area who does Crossfit). I am hoping he visits me soon so I can enjoy it with another human being. All in all, a very fine wine! — 9 years ago

This winemaker started as a wine tech then started blending.
He is quite technical in his wines.
The 2009 vintage still has some time left but quite drinkable now.
Great wine. — 10 years ago
