Beckstoffer To-Kalon Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2011

@David A Lentine @Gina Sabean @Christine You know that you are drinking GREAT wines when you can say that a Realm Beckstoffer To Kalon came in last. I love this producer beyond measure!! Every wine they make is a hit. Everyone tonight agreed that drank by itself it would have been amazing. However, it still needs a few years to open up and spread its wings!! All of my bottles were decanted for 8 hours today, I began formulating thus rodeo of a lineup around 11am. The Realm had huge dark fruit but too many rough edges in comparison to the others. In all honesty, these are so good that we are splitting hairs but alas they must be ranked and that is how the Cookie Crumbled this evening. — 10 years ago

Surprisingly earthy for being a lighter-colored red. Cookie dough and leathery scents. :-) Great with seafood. — 11 years ago

SweetWater Brewing Company

Hop Hash Infuse Double IPA

Pinecones and orange blossoms. Pineapple cake and dried apricots fill your nostrils. Lemon-orange, maple, sweet corn, creamy grapefruit, pine nuts and lemon cookie coalesque and then a resinous pine in burlap emerges triumphant in the face of the tropical monsoon. It carries on like pine tar on a baseball bat. Home run! — 10 years ago

Cigar City Brewing

Jai Alai India Pale Ale

This thing is like a merengue cookie after you get through the citrus zest and gum arabic candy crust. There is a tangerine characteristic, that turns into tangerine pith, and has a powdered sugar millisecond before becoming bony and rich. This thick little lady is bumping in every respect! — 11 years ago

Cavallotto

Bricco Boschis Barolo Nebbiolo 2008

Really enjoyed this Barolo, dark burgundy in color, showing brick at the edge, cigar, tobacco leaf, dried date, plum emerged, very fine integrated tannin, tastes of black tea, oatmeal cookie and fungi, rustic and bold with a long finish. — 11 years ago

Château Doisy-Védrines

Sauternes Sémillon Sauvignon Blanc Blend 1989

Moody copper gold in color. Wonderfully mature, botrytis infused, sugar-coated pecans, salty caramel, cookie dough, dried guava, cappuccino cream, cured ham. Did I say it's very complex!? Really love the balance and mixture of full-throttle sweetness and mouthwatering savoury, hearty elements. Beautiful wine to sip and contemplate on this perfect Indian-Summer-Sunday.... — 12 years ago

Gekkeikan Sake (USA) Inc.

Black & Gold Junmai Sake

Hello my friends! Well it is time to review another sake! This is my favorite so far. It is Gekkeikan 's Black and Gold. This is an amazing cold filtered sake. The bouquet reminds me of wild flowers and honey. The initial palate is so smooth and buttery. It has to be ice cold to appreciate the butter cookie dipped in milk effect. The finish is dry with hints of chocolate raspberry tart. I give it my highest rating yet for sake! I need salmon sushi now and another sip! WOW! — 10 years ago

Matthiasson

Michael Mara Vineyard Chardonnay 2013

13' Matthiasson Michael Mara. 12.9 % ALC. The weight of this wine & depth is something unique for a California chard...except with a Matthiasson. Sugar cookie batter, peach, crushed rock, pronounced acidity. It's so unusual… after you swallow it the acidity washes clean , except for the front of your tongue, you can still taste that peach/ almonds😋 I think drinking this at cellar temperature, if not even a little warmer is best. — 10 years ago
