Gold Pocket Wines

Chateau Ste. Michelle & Dr. Loosen

Eroica Gold Riesling 2016

Orange blossom, and marmalade aromas.
Sweet entry, orange, and citrus marmalade flavors. Bright acidity. Ends without leaving too much of a sweet aftertaste.
Excellent desert wine, or with spicy food.

Deep gold to amber color. Beautiful clearly defined nose of green apple, hint of almond powder marzipan and buttered toast. Medium body with high acidity. Leads to an ultra long finish with mouthwatering fresh acidity. Really awesome stuff. Out of Magnum. — 5 years ago

Domaine François Raveneau

Clos Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay 1988

Light gold. Looks young. Took 5 hours to open up and show its stuff. In hour 6 this was cruising. Saline and sea shells, wispy lemon fruit, some honey, some white stone. The guesses from the fellas were 2002 Rav Clos and 1996 Rav Valmur. Shows how these properly stored aged Raveneaus can age effortlessly. — 5 years ago

Wehlener Sonnenuhr Auslese Riesling 1990

Medium gold, lighter than the GK bottle next to it. Heavy in the glass. More powerful nose than the GK with a strong core of acidity. Notes of apricot, spice and some almond paste. Really nice, and for me the better wine tonight next to the 90 WSA Goldkap next to it. — 3 years ago

Krug

Brut Champagne Blend 1985

Pale gold. Still a decent mouse. Lovely but nose- hazelnut, brioche, some hints of orange rind. Still fresh and dynamic with a long complex finish. A really good bottle. — 4 years ago

Domaine François Raveneau

Montée de Tonnerre Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 1990

Nice regal gold hue. Amazing pit fruit and wet stone nose. Plus notes of apricot, white clay soil, salty ocean breeze and some Raveneau honey on the finish. Rich and powerful in the mouth. Coats the palate with lots of fruit and fine grained acidity. I’ve had this a few times and this was at its best. Great Raveneau at age 30 is an amazing treat. — 6 years ago

Château Rieussec

Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 2005

Deep gold in color. Lower acidity than expected. Lots of white stone fruit and sweetness with some biscuit on the palette. Great complement to Brie. For the vintage and the producer a little underwhelming. — a year ago

Domaine Ramonet

Les Ruchottes Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Chardonnay 2004

Light gold color, youthful in the glass. Notes of lemon, white peach, honeysuckle, some spearmint, some white acacia flowers and a nice tropical sea breeze. Tight and solid in the mouth, despite 2 hours of air in a decanter. Has a great minerality in its delivery. Good structure and acidity. Still early in its journey, at least this bottle was. — 4 years ago

Les Folatières Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Chardonnay 1996

Medium gold color. Sweet nose. Notes of apricot, quince, kiwi, fig and white peach. Rich and impactful in the mouth. Sneaky acidity. With air the wine exhibits more mineral notes and the Leflaive petrol type thing I love. Good stuff. — 5 years ago

Vincent Dauvissat

Les Preuses Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay 1989

Tour d’Argent. Surprisingly young color, light gold. At first it’s soft and delicate. With air it shows notes of citrus, tan spice, white clay, minerals and some cardamom. Starts with great fruit and has structure and acidity that builds with air. There’s a sweetness that stays with it over 3 hours. Great wine. — 6 years ago
