Beautifully aromatic with grassy and fresh citrus notes, a lovely balance of dried apricot and grapefruit pith in the mouth. Some sour apple too! Yum yum. Great clarity, only a little bit of claylike terroir. Interesting given the limestone and marine fossil soil. — 8 years ago
Yes. Poured from a magnum, this wine is intensely earthy on the palate and reflects its fossil-rich, mineralic soil at the base of a volcano. Slightly gritty, having the characteristic muskiness one might expect from a Mourvèdre heavy wine with tons of beautiful Grenache fruit. Ahhh-ha, hush that fuss. — 8 years ago
Each time I sip one of the phenomenal Löwenstein holy wines, first words to pop up in mind - straight from the heart pumping through the veins and slipped out of mouth - are: complexity, primordial, hope, illumination, flinty, silex, slate, fossil, rocks, sublimeness... http://hlweb.de/ — 9 years ago

Beautiful saline fossil-like minerality and bracing acidity pairing well with shellfish and cheese. — 10 years ago
Rich dark color, slight effervescence. Smooth. A little tartness. Enjoying the sunset and a cheese plate. A little bit of heaven. — 6 years ago
Crisp, dry and well crafted. Nice Riesling with hints of peaches and flowers. Some tropical fruits on the pallet. Loads of acidity. Solid effort. — 7 years ago

Back in snowy Boston. This is a private label chard made by my sister-in-law when she was studying wine making at the University of Auckland on Waiheke Island. It aged very well for ten years. Deep straw color, buttery honey grapefruit notes. You can't buy this one - limited production! — 7 years ago

Local red. A blend of grapes made for the Midwest. This is not too sweet and not too fruity; smooth all the way through. Lots of red fruits, both dark and light; a little jammy. Great evening wine. #biodynamic #localwine — 9 years ago

This cappuccino capped black beauty, loses its perfect coiffure, opting for a painted tonshure of ridiculously minuscule bubbles, and in the process, revealing outlines of Lascaux bovine entities and fossil jawbones. Grab hold, Samson, this thing kicks ass! Coffee breath wafts from its maw, but the palate is impeccable, evoking the richest beans, caramel backdrops, the lightest pepper, and vanilla. Wake up, you hairless milquetoast, the Philistines want to drink! — 8 years ago

The Laherte Frères Champagne Blanc de Blancs Brut Nature is intense and precise, with bracing acidity and striking mineral overtones. Straw-colored, with a fine mousse, this zero dosage sparkler opens with notes of lemon zest, dried honey, pastry and white flowers. The palate is terroir-driven, chalky, calcareous, fossil-laden soils from the Mesozoic era come to the fore with energy and focus, punctuated by overtones of white grapefruit, lemon zest and spice.
