Pieropan

Soave Classico Garganega 2016

A very mineral driven wine. Meyer lemon, orange blossom, ripe tangerine, jelly, hint of honey, slight corn notes, maybe a little oak treatment. Chalk and crushed rocks really stands out. Obvious lees contact. Bitterness, bright acid, slight oily texture. Some heat on the finish. — 8 years ago

Blossom Muscat

Compared to the 13 this is a little dull; still a great nose but kinda strangely lifeless otherwise. — 9 years ago

Verdicchio di Matelica 2014

Loveky lemon zest/blossom on the palate and nose. Acid really sings (zings?) here, even if it's slightly more than I'd prefer. Fantastic juice. — 10 years ago

Weekly Wednesday wine committee. This week we had 1 sparkler, 3 whites, 3 reds, 1 dessert. All tasted blind as normal.

I’ve been spoiled with birth year wines as of late and this was no exception. Nobody guessed it was older than 10yrs! Shocked at how light in color it still was. Retained some orange blossom, chamomile, honeyed caramel almonds. Wonderful Sauternes.

@JJ Lumia : 😂 Very small pours and at least a few days a week of no drinking are mandatory!
