Scholium Project

Delta Soup California White Blend 2014

Unusual for Abe not to have notes for a wine on his site, but this one has always been blank. I assumed from the name that it was a potpourri of Sacramento River Delta wines and that proved to be correct. A retail site notes that this is a cofermentation of Albariño, Chardonnay, Grüner Veltliner, Pinot Grigio and Verdelho from the Lost Slough Vineyard, then blended with 14% Whole cluster Riesling. Complex nose with a little funk, and acid for days. Interesting wine. — 9 years ago

"Acid for days" sounds like a recall of a special week during your freshman year in college back in '75

You had to bring that up, didn't you. I still blame that week on listening to Hawkwind's Magnu too many times. (It was a party school).

Urban Legend

Holland Landing Vineyard Teroldego 2009

This is an urban boutique winery's showcase wine. It' big and chewy without losing its prettiness. Nose is medium(+) intensity with plum, blackberry, nutmeg, and dry earth. Palate shows sweet, chewy tannins, bright acidity, black fruit, baking spices, dark cocoa powder, and americano coffee. Finish is long and delicious. — 12 years ago

Delta business class upping their game with some good Pinot. Nice fruit coming through; sweet red berries, cherry, and some earth. Hard to really experience the full expression of any wine at altitude, though. — 9 years ago

Dom Pérignon

Brut Champagne Blend 1964

Dom Perignon 1964, in magnum, shared today with Jacques Pepin on a Global Express 5000 to the Aspen Classic. I brought a Spanish porron (i.e., wine bong) and Jacques was game. Incredibly, the Champagne still had bubble, along with terrific hazelnut, brioche flavors. The landing was extra smooth and Jacques – In his cool broken English – said he thought it was because the flight attendant must have slipped him some of the DP. Fine by me. Best pre-1970's Champagne I've had.

Lekkerwijn Rosé Blend 2011

Fresh and crisp on the intake, round as it hits the back of the throat and a long graceful finish. One of our favorite ethical wineries, Solms Delta, this earthy wine is bright cherry rose. — 13 years ago
