Egly-Ouriet

Vieilles Vignes de Pinot Noir Ambonnay Brut Grand Cru Blanc De Noirs Champagne

One of my favourite Champagnes. At the Come Taste the Stars Dinner hosted by Tyson Stelzer. 100% Pinot Noir. Barely a foot of top soil before the roots enter the chalk. Incredibly minerality. Egly prefers NV to vintage for the Blanc de Noirs. Disgorged 2018 with 6 years on Lees. A blend of 2010 and 2011 both average vintages incredibly. Full bodied and powerful. Stunning. Amazing value compared to the Krug Clos de Ambonnay at $4500 and 10 times the price of the Egly. — 7 years ago

Mollydooker Wines

Carnival of Love McLaren Vale Shiraz 2006

Raspberry compote and ripe raspberry, almost a 'Fruit by the Foot' profile. Still some oak present, and slightly hot from the alcohol still, consistent with other Australian wines with the same bottle age. This is under screwcap, perhaps that's contributing to the freshness. Subsequent bottles should be 2020-2024. — 8 years ago

@David T Sorry I had to delete and repost... Android bug constantly had my notes going into the comments, kind of frustrating. This is our longest term screwcap, so fun to see this experiment play out.

Don Melchor Puente Alto Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2011

It's time for my Friday's Cabernet fix. This time, a wonderful Chilean Cabernet.

Deep purple in color with a purplish rim.

Beautiful nose of blueberries, blackberries, black currants, plums, cooked cherries, oak, vanilla, licorice, earth, spices, peppercorn, leather, bell pepper, sage, peppermint, eucalyptus and smoke.

Full bodied with medium acidity and beautiful long legs.

Dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, cherries, figs, cloves, herbs, earth, cola, vanilla, oak, spices, light vegetables, coffee, chocolates, bell pepper, tobacco, beef jerky and peppercorn.

Long finish with firm tannins and black pepper.

An elegant, Single Vineyard, Cabernet Sauvignon from Chile, with lots of complexity and fitness, but not fully balanced yet.

Still young now, but very enjoyable by itself, and better with BBQ Meats. I paired it with a cheese platter, crackers and nice company.

Grapes are grown at the foot hills of the Andes Mountains, on stony soils. 99% Cabernet Sauvignon and 1% Cabernet Franc.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

Château Canon-la-Gaffelière

Saint-Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2000

Located on the outskirts of the medieval town of Saint-Emilion, at the southern foot of the slope. A blend of 55% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Franc, & 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, a lower Merlot blend (normally 70% in Saint-Emilion) allowing more for Cab Franc, enhanced by the warm soil. Wonderful, complex a Gem! Perfect now! Subtle fruit aromas accompanied by cedar & spice. The palate shows fresh ripe berry fruits, cacao and espresso notes. Well balanced, perfect tannins, a joy to drink. Tasting Sample. — 8 years ago

I wanted something nice tonight. This was perfect. Winemaker Kurt Venge offers a Burgundian style to Sonoma. Red fruits and plush velvet finish. Definitely worth seeking out this off the beaten path wine. — 6 years ago

Domaine Karydas

Naoussa Xinomavro 2013

A treat, paired with Colorado beef tenderloin, wilted chard, mushrooms, and parsnip purée. Big, brash tannins that stood up to the charred edges of the steak. A lot of dark fruit with a touch of (good) funk. Off the beaten path for sure...need to go find some more — 8 years ago

Matthiasson

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2013

Off the beaten path from the typical Napa cab. Big on complexity with wildflowers, cassis, blueberries, blackberries, molasses, smoke, milk chocolate, and leather. Big on restraint too- light and elegant palate. Awesome stuff. Great with mountains of Greek food. 12.5%. — 9 years ago

@Martin G Rivard bought Nine Suns over the weekend - very impressed. A brilliant wine, alas, too expensive for us. However, I was also blown away by the Rudius Knockmore 2012. I understand that Jason has connections there, too. This one doesn't cost a king's ransom.

@Paul T the tix prices are a little outrageous. Home plate wrigley are 2-12k. I agree one could build a nice cellar with that 💸💸
