Kleine Weinprobe im Edeka in Saarlouis. Der Winzer stellte seine Weine vor und wir konnten den trockenen Riesling probieren. Sehr lecker. Evtl. bestellen wir was davon. — 8 years ago
Dense and intense. Coffee, chocolate and candies red fruits. Benefited from 1hr+ air. Brought this bottle back from Argentina over 2 years ago after visiting the winery...Oh Yeah... — 8 years ago
Jeff Meier- Merlot can be hit and miss at times, but I was pleasantly surprised by this tasty offering from Girard. The raspberry and blueberry fruit with coffee-like varietal freshness was supported by good palate weight and density. The flavors were fresh and varietally correct. — 9 years ago
Jeff Meier-Recently tasted in a line up with Napa Cabernets, Hilltop showed a refined elegance of violet, black currant and cherry fruit complexed with vanilla, toasted pastry and coffee. The real beauty of this wine is the rich, supple and seamless palate. Put a smile on my face! #cabernetday — 9 years ago
In honor of Gustav Meier. Of all the wonderful qualities he had, his taste in alcohol was truly awful. Cutty Sark was his favorite. For wines, he preferred Merlot so every time I got him a bottle of wine, I always chose a right bank Bordeaux. So here's to you, Gusti! — 9 years ago
A beautiful Santa Maria Pinot from talented winemaker Dieter Cronje. More fruit forward and powerful than the adjacent Sta Rita hills cousins. Smooth, silky, with a long finish, balanced acidity and a touch of smoke on the nose.

Great value. Delivers well but maybe do not keep any longer as fruit starting to fade and not enough acid. — 8 years ago
Jeff Meier- Pinot Blanc has been a favorite white varietal of mine since my early days at J. Lohr. Trimbach's 2014 shows everything that there is to like about the varietal from the green apple, white flower and stone fruit aromas to the fresh flavors of peach, apple and snap pea herb with acidic brightness. — 9 years ago
Jeff Meier- Sometimes you just have to try something different and given we had interns from Vacqueyras back in the 1980's, I have always had a fondness for this area. Spicy - think black pepper - with layers of brambly black fruits including blackberry and blueberry and French aged complexity in this blend of Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre and Cinsault. — 9 years ago
Jeff Meier- Black currants, complex oak spice, dark color, rich, soft and yummy. Paired with pan-seared and roasted ribeye seasoned with thyme, rosemary, and sage and finished with red currant and red wine reduction sauce. — 9 years ago
Vorverkostung zur UBBBP Vol. 27 — 6 years ago
Delicious. Grilled peach on the first swirl followed by deep Meier lemon and lemon zest flavors. Reminds me of PC/GC Chablis. Good — 8 years ago
Jeff Meier- I really love the wines from this producer. Focused on Burgundy varietals, Walter Hansel has a restrained touch on Pinot Noir. Sour cherry, vanilla and strawberry preserve aromas with a silky smooth palate that balances all of the goodness of Pinot Noir. — 9 years ago
Jeff Meier- This is a delicious Chardonnay from a lesser known appellation in Burgundy - called Montagny. It also comes at a very reasonable price. The wine smells of citrus, apple and struck gun flint with fresh, complex flavors echoing the aromas with excellent balance between palate weight and acidity. Paired with Moules Marinieres. — 9 years ago
Does not suck. 2010 doesn't mess around. Also this is of sentimental value: We got this for Gustav Meier when he gave the Schleicher studio a masterclass. — 9 years ago
Lovely and easy to drink! Bright soft fruit - orange blossom, Meier lemon - and flowers. Sweet essence but a dry wine. Perfect with Pollo Amalfitano with lemon and thyme on a lovely spring evening. #carricante #italy #sicilia #etnabianco #etna — 9 years ago

Long overdue annual post for Gustav Meier. He would just turned 90. A very worthwhile #merlot in Gusti’s honor! Elegant and charming. Like him! — 6 years ago
