Have made notes about this remarkable Pinot elsewhere. Even more enjoyable tasting it and chatting with Nick Mills, the highly enthusiastic, intelligent and eccentric winemaker and owner of Rippon who must have the most scenic workplace of any of us on the shores of Lake Wanaka. — 9 years ago

Delicious Rieussec, but only makes me long for the eccentric '70s vintages: the over-the-top '76, the "kernally" '75, and the nearly tannic '79. — 10 years ago

Deep Golden color, bottle age clearly showing on the nose (love that note), still strong, sappy and complex. One of my favorite producers - passionate, eccentric, honest.

A Sagrantino monster - holding olives in one hand and a bottle of soy sauce in the other - while it stomps through fields of dark fruit. Eccentric monstah — 11 years ago

Lots to love about this wine, starting with the name, Sbirolo, which refers to an old but pleasantly eccentric person in Piemontese dialect. The wine itself is juicy and smoother than most Langhe Nebbiolo, pretty and bodacious. Terrific value, too! — 9 years ago

The 2012 Timberline is eccentric and full, definitely a delight for the senses. The nose explodes with dark fruits and meatiness, laced with white pepper and hints of cotton candy. In the mouth, fruit abounds and is complemented by a matrix of black pepper and firm tannins with a surprising note of coconut jelly beans. This ever-evolving wine is approachable now and will be enjoyable over the next five years.

Eccentric. Grapefruit zest. Rich, tart. Botrytis. Pretty darn good with roasted Brussels Sprouts with Parmesan and bacon.! — 10 years ago

The fill and palate suggest this has been topped up. An enjoyable mix of a clear and slightly funky aged gevrey with a blast of younger fruit. Slightly eccentric but tasty — 10 years ago

Sparklefest 2016. Eccentric and beautiful. Plenty of residual sugar, but not cloying. — 9 years ago

Eccentric Touraine! Ripe tropical fruit and clearly some vanilla tones from barrel aging. Intense and convincing. White Bordeaux style. This one can go on for a few more years I guess. Low yealding 55 year-old vines. Organic grapes. Indigenous yeasts. Bought it directly at the winery a few years ago. — 10 years ago

Weir vineyard 2009.; Yorkville Highlands, Mendocino County. Red and black currants, saffron, beautiful. World-class Pinot! "Eccentric clones" says the label, also high elevation near the coast. Concentrated but elegant - remarkable. — 11 years ago
