Gran Seleccion Cordon Negro Brut Cava Macabeo-Xarel-lo-Parellada

Nice straw yellow color. Small, delicate bubbles. Smells very fruity with tart apple and pear on the nose. Yum! More mellow than crisp, and had a nice lingering finish. Love. — 5 years ago

La Araucaria Valle de la Orotava Tinto Listan Negro 2015

Oh what a 2+ hour decant will do. This sings much clearer. High toned, but integrated tannins, crushed red fruits & that amazing volcanic thread, and, made by a woman vintner- thus better. I hope I can age a few of these. — 8 years ago

Wine from Gran Canaria's "badlands" -- violets, juicy juice, nice kick at the end. Can do with a slight chill below cellar and even more stellar with food from the grill. — 11 years ago

First official tasting of Bodega Chacra's '14 sans soufre Pinot Noir stateside. Coming from same vineyard as Piero's "Cincuneta y Cinco" Pinot. Tasted blind alongside 13 other Pinot Noirs from US, NZ, and France. It showed very well! — 11 years ago

Part of me wishes the amazing stuff coming out of Chacra could just be our little secret...it's getting scarcer and more expensive!

I got paired up with a Mezcal Wizzard in Cancun, this was one of her top picks - clear, measured smoke, light citrus, dried herb ... soulful. Tall glass with soda and wedge is the perfect drink for Clemson v Wake Forest for the ACC title. #GoTigers #BestMezcal — 10 years ago
