Clarksburg Chenin Blanc + Viognier Blend 2022

Paired nicely with tuna steak. Nice and refreshing to drink in Florida while the sun is still out. Bottle description: white blend marries the crisp, honeyed citrus fruit of chenin blanc(80%) with the soft floral and juicy peach notes of viogner (20%). Interesting white. — 2 years ago

9.1

Bright nose of lemon-cream, yellow apples, slight floral notes, key lime. Light and crisp taste followed by slight brown sugar and cream. Finishes with just a hint of toasted nuts. Hint of salinity and tiny bubbles make you keep coming back for more. — 4 years ago

Waited a few years to drink the 2017 and it’s even better than I remembered. In times like these it’s important to savor the floral bouquet and stone fruit deliciousness of this wine and essentials like Clorox bleach. — 5 years ago

Hirsch Vineyards

San Andreas Fault Pinot Noir 2011

My WOTN at the Charlotte Hirsch dinner, showing what proper aging can do to bring out a wine's fine points and soften its rough edges. All the elements of this wine were working together in harmony. Soaring floral aromatics, deep, rich fruits and a wonderfully smooth, long finish made this wine a real pleasure to drink. The more Hirsch I drink, the more I realize that patience is rewarded with their wines. 2011 was widely panned as a tough vintage in CA, but this 2011 was absolutely singing. — 6 years ago

"Cuvée Corcelette" Morgon Gamay 2018

Among the summits of the Beaujolais is this Morgon de Foillard. Accessible to immediate pleasure but nevertheless rich deep and complex. The aromas are revealed in a sturry way, as a story. Fruity attack (red) pink floral note, iris, peony, herbaceous notes, infused. Depthensity and paradoxical lightness. In my top 5 Ever. ❤️

Parmi les sommets du Beaujolais on trouve ce Morgon de Foillard. Vin accessible au plaisir immédiat mais néanmoins riche profond et complexe. Les arômes de révèlent de manière étagée, comme un récit. Pele-mêle: attaque fruité (rouge) note floral rose, iris, pivoine, notes herbacées, infusées. Densité profondeur et légèreté paradoxale. Dans mon top 5 Ever.

Monterey Malvasia Bianca 2018

Really incredible nose. Super sweet and full of peaches and floral notes. Like walking through a Georgia orchard on a cool summer night. But the taste is playfully acidic and finishes dry and crisp. Still a lot of peach but you'll hear no complaints from me. — 6 years ago

Louis Roederer

Cristal Brut Champagne Chardonnay Pinot Noir Blend

A fitting 600th wine for me on Delectable. Such a youthful, wonderful being. Lemon and lemon zest. Melon and slate. Softness beyond its years. Finish was a floral and citrus explosion that goes on into a velvet abyss. — 7 years ago

I love this wine--a somewhat creamy and floral SB, the musque clone lends a very interesting flavor and aroma profile. Delicious with shrimp cocktail and our cheese plate, but it would be equally tasty on its own. — 9 years ago

Estate Bottled Chalk Hill Sauvignon Blanc 2019

Blend of 96% Sauv Blanc with 4% Sauv Gris adding an interesting dynamic to the wine & distinctive aromas (prior to ‘18 vintage some Semillon added). Pale lemon color, citrus, tropical & floral aromas. On the palate peach, melon, herb & earthy tones, well balanced with acidity, smooth yet robust on a long finish ending rich with wet stone character. Good value! A Fav!! Very consistent! — 3 years ago

Limpid orange-pink. Vibrant, mineral-accented cherry pit, peach, raspberry and melon scents, along with building orange pith and floral nuances. Stains the palate with incisive red berry, citrus fruit and lavender flavors that deftly blend depth and liveliness. Shows superb tension and intense mineral character on the strikingly long finish, which leaves bitter quinine and blood orange notes behind. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, June 2018) — 7 years ago
