Flying Trout
Daniel Barraud
La Verchère Pouilly-Fuissé Chardonnay 2005
Nothing better than a well aged Chardonnay and fatty, cold water fish. This bottle is our go to pairing for grilled steelhead trout.
Nose is evolving since my prior post, oxidized green apple peel and cold caramel.
Palate is lightly sweet lemon curd/custard, baked red apple, cooked lemon, warm granite dust and a zing of acidity on the close.
Our feline house managers pestered for comfortable portions on the trout, they are good boys and girls, generally, so we endulge.
Great night listening to Hugh Masekela and Mongo Santamaria on the HiFi, everything complimented!
One bottle left, then we move along to the next vintage. — 7 years ago

Trout Gulch Vineyard Chardonnay
VVVVVVVAAAAAALLLLLLLUUUUUUEEEEEEEEEE it's hard to drink this stuff because it's actually too good. It's like it's so cheap it's a goddamn shame because I will not hold on to any of these. I WILL BE DRINKING THEM AND BARELY BELIEVING I PAID LESS THAN $20 a bottle 😮 — 9 years ago

Domaine Gayda
Flying Solo Grenache Syrah 2016
Where the name doesn’t apply this wine soars! Jazz, artisanal chocolate (Fijian ginger and kerikeri mandarin if you must know), and some friends wearing fantastic Pyjamas.... this wine fits right in. — 7 years ago

Flying Dog Brewery
The Truth Imperial India Pale Ale
J' adore ce genre de bière. Astringente et très amère, une explosion d' agrumes et de notes florales et de pin, une jolie couleur dorée. Double IPA américaine qui titre à 8.7. Elle me fait vraiment penser à ma référence du genre, la west coast IPA de l' association des brasseries Green Flash et Saint-Feuillin — 9 years ago

Southold Farm + Cellar
Flying & Falling The Farrm Vineyard Cabernet Franc 2014
Well integrated Cabernet Franc. Dark plum and blackberry fruit flavors. Big hints of green pepper with notes of earth and slate. A bit of a medicinal flavor on the finish. Low acid and can be served chilled. One of their last Long Island vintages. — 7 years ago
Flying Goat Cellars
Rancho Santa Rita Vineyards Pinot Noir 2012
Surprisingly light colour but it sings in the glass. This seems to me to be low intervention winemaking - lots of sappy, honeyed red fruit and pure pleasure. Reasonably priced at $55, which seems to be what it costs in Ontario for a decent Pinot these days. — 8 years ago

Watson Ranch Chardonnay
Full of life. So fresh, cool, crisp, with those poultry notes that make it very food friendly. I still prefer trout gulch and appreciate the more mineral side of things over there for this producer, this is like the contrast. Not to be overlooked but definitely completely different. — 9 years ago
