Domaine Jean-Louis Chave

Circa J.L. Chave Sélection Saint-Joseph Marsanne Roussanne

This 2022 is next level. Have had several Rhône whites recently and this is a standard bearer. So focused. About editing and restraint with subtle hints of this and that without hitting you over the with anything. Dominated by Rousanne which explains its elegance and subtlety. Has a honeyed fresh slightly poached apricot and apple combo with whiffs of baking spices. Great Lacey quartz structure. Beguiling.. perfect with scallops, acorn squash and rice pilaf — 6 months ago

Château Montrose

J.L. Charmolue Saint-Estèphe Red Bordeaux Blend 1991

Vintage 1991 | The year with the devastating 20 April frosts… but Montrose escaped because it lies close to the river. Very much alive and kicking. Italian roofs colour. Classic smell with figs, cedar, leather, harmonious taste, vibrant. Happy! | With Chateaubriand | at restaurant Cas Pikaar in Hilvarenbeek — 4 years ago

Philia Pfalz Dry Sauvignon Blanc 2018

Brilliant young light zesty Sauvignon Blanc. Nose: yellow apples, green peaches, celery, acacia flowers, kiwi and pineapple notes. Taste is perfectly balanced with fruity sourness and sweetness. Great choice for hot summer day with fresh oysters or clams, or light vegetables salads. — 5 years ago

Freycinet Vineyard

Tasmania Pinot Noir 2010

Generally regarded as one of Australia's better Pinot Noirs on the basis of its perfumed nose and plummy medium bodied palate with lovely silky tannins. Could identify with @Ira Schwartz note recently of aromas of boot polish. I used to say varnish but I think we are on the same page. Great Pinot. — 9 years ago

@Bob McDonald I generally associate those aromas with aged wines and it sometimes throws me off when I'm tasting blind. I will admit a bias when I get that sensation I usually become pre-disposed to liking the wine.

Belle Côte Chardonnay 2015

Wine was suggested by the magician himself @Ira Schwartz . We decanted the wine and it was needed. The wine developed well over the course of about 90 mins. At first it was a smooth mineral forward wine but developed some complex fruit flavors such a pear. It paired well with both the short rib lasagna and the sea bass my wife and I had that night. — 5 years ago
