Georgian Valleys

Teliani Valley

Dry Saperavi 2013

Full bodied with structure and kind of meaty... hints of green peppercorn. Inky in color but fairly light on the palette. Tart cherry finish. Very nice for a our first Georgian wine and the region from which viticulture evolved. — 9 years ago

Amaral

Sauvignon Blanc 2014

Probably Chile's best Sauvignon Blanc from Leyda Valley. The typical herbal notes of the Chilean terroir are complemented with sweet notes of tropical fruits and citrus; almost emulating New Zealand Marlborough Valley Sauv Blancs — 10 years ago

I assume the convection they talk about relates to near constant motion of fine lees, right?

Yes, & some relate it to equalization of temperature as well

Pyramid Valley Vineyards

Growers Collection Twin Valleys Vineyard Savagnin Rose 2010

Beautiful golden color with lovely blossom notes on the nose. This wine is very rich, full bodied, and off-dry with the family resemblance to gewurztraminer really notable in the texture. Palate has sweet apple, pear, and apricot. Alcohol is just very slightly hot and the finish is long and clean. I'm glad I drank the wine! — 10 years ago
