Now I'm feelin' the highs and you're feelin' the lows
The beat starts gettin' into your toes
You start poppin' your fingers and stompin' your feet
And movin' your body while while you're sitting in your seat
And then damn! Ya start doin' the freak, I said
Damn! Right outta your seat — 8 years ago
Best Moreau-Naudet wine I've had so far. Still very young, with searing acidity and tons of minerally extract on the finish. Gains richness with air, playing at the edge between saline/citrus and riper white fruits. Good wine today with a promising future. And no hint of premox - fingers crossed. — 8 years ago
Ironic that I was planning to drink this tonight and then the winery was mentioned in a book I'm reading!! A nose that smacks you right in the face! Can't put my finger on it, but it reminds me of opening brand new toys when I was little. Surprisingly light on flavor and very short though. As I said last week, the Fingers Lakes Whites are coming along! — 9 years ago
Enticing nose of rich, dark fruit--I mean, you're ready for juices from ripe ass blackberries and brambles running down your fingers in a field! Stays intensely flavored on the sipping, but it's really tannic. Tons of structure overall and really better for a hearty meal than as a sipper. — 10 years ago

Chateau Maugey - Le Jean Marc - 2004 Accorded myself a souvenir #winelover a treat, I remember it amazing wine for about 10euros a the time, I still have a few bottles of several vintages - near Libourne it was this "stubborn" and self educated winemaker, Jean Marc Maugey, a golden fingers #winemaker, running a small family estate with nature rules, he crafts wines like the Old and Legendaries #Bordeaux wines in the 19th and 20th century - Noble, originals, authentic and of character - focusing on Merlot and Malbec with small yields ! An inspiring free artist ! 😊 and a man full of passion and stories 😉 — 11 years ago
Fingers crossed after seeing the synthetic purple cork and remembering the wine board wars regarding B&H a few years back. Fortunately this bottle was excellent. Nice Cab profile with Cigar box nose. Drank well and held up over three days. — 12 years ago
More Petite Sirah than Pinot in style and taste profile but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Grainy tannins, black olive, smoke infused red fruits. Not at the mountain top where his Syrah and Grenache are perched but still very compelling and enjoyable to those who toss aside their pre-conceptions of what PN “should” taste like. — 7 years ago
Had to crack this out seeing as average sunlight intensity over the last week has crossed my tried and true kW per square metre threshold.....:-) — 8 years ago
Has to be good because it says UVA on the label. Security blankets and warm socks by the fire. Like a lover running his fingers through your hair after a long day. — 9 years ago
Drank the 2012 on May 4 2016. Wonderful chocolate and mocha with black cherry. Thought it had a higher alcohol content than the 13.9 so we were pleasantly surprised. — 9 years ago
Enso, made in PDX, has released their "Chateauneuf du Stark" based on the quartet of Syrah, Grenache, Mourvèdre, and Counoise (each at 25%) from Columbia Valley. Fragrant, phat, flirting with smoke & slate but so juicy...call me muy loco but it reminds me of papaya crossed with tobacco. Whatever, this li'l Stark ode to Chateauneuf isn't too big for its britches, it's daring & delightful! — 10 years ago
I agree with Lois. This is one of the NY Fingers Lakes Regions best reds! — 10 years ago

Couldn’t hold my fingers of my last bottle of Eben Sadie’s old vine series 2015 vintage. This time the Treinspoor; an old vine Tinta barocca. It takes a good three hours in the decanter to really present it self, but when it does, oh what an entrance. So complex, yet so transparent. The trademark Sadie earthyness is teasing in the background while the red and black berry fruit with a good ‘ol portion of floral notes is having its fun time in the foreground. In it’s infancy at the moment, this wine will age beautifully.
9.2 today with a future in the the 9.5 range — 8 years ago
Really good wine but expected more. Missing mid palate after opening and just muted in general. Only after 3 hrs did it start to show its potential. This isn't going to age forever but give it a few more years and cross your fingers. Very nice wine but I expect more from Haut Brion — 9 years ago
Very good.. Plain & simple ... Fruit forward, Dense. Very little tannins but it was the 2007. The Barbera grape is the closest to a California style wine, I have come a crossed... But then why try to compare when you trying to experiment with something new. — 9 years ago

Elixir of the Provence gods. That's a kiss five fingers and explode wine. — 10 years ago
Sultry. Kinda like a chain-smoking flapper girl ordering prime rib and two fingers of whiskey at a roadhouse in Moline, Illinois. Fruity, oaky, medium-bodied and nicely balanced. The wine was good, too. — 10 years ago
For me, this is as close to perfect a Pinot Noir as there is: a subtle nose of cherry and earth, a soft and supple mouth feel with cherry, cranberry and rose petals with a hint of forest floor on the palate. Complex, beautiful, just wonderful. Unfortunately, the current 2012 vintage under his new Camlow Cellars label (which we just picked up last weekend) is the last year he'll be working with Keefer Ranch fruit, but winemaker Craig Strehlow has consistently nailed it for me. We'll definitely try the new juice--also from Green Valley--when it's ready. *fingers crossed* — 11 years ago
Runs down the glass in fingers. Deep amber color with a light aroma that has great mellow hints of caramel and ends in a light citrus. Starts with mellow vanilla, has the smallest amount of fire in the middle, and resolves extremely neutral. — 11 years ago
Beautiful evening for a glass of Chapel Down Bacchus from England. Yes....England. Crisp and racy it reminds of if dry Riesling crossed with Sauvignon Blanc. — 12 years ago
