Allegro Con Spirito

Monte Hiniesta Toro Tinto de Toro 2010

First bottle was corked. Took it back and exchanged it at my local wine store and they were more than happy to switch it out. After acquiring the new bottle, I let it breathe for approximately 16 hours before imbibing what was otherwise a fantastic wine. Large plum and blackberry notes brought this magenta toro to life. A hint of spice and mild tannins on the finish left a pleasant intrigue that only spurred the desire for a second, third, and fourth glass. — 9 years ago

Plenty of fresh tropical fruit, lightly textured and great acidity. Just like flicking a switch, suddenly it's summertime!

Toasted rock. Charred meats. And seriously just go gevrey Chambertin you'll thank me later. This is not bad at all but for the price you could get a lot more of whats here already if you switch up producer and terroir a little. — 9 years ago

Switch Back

Peterson Family Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2005

Full body, black cherry, a hint of coffee, and a bit of tobacco on the palate. The nose reminiscent of black licorice, dark berries and a hint of oak. Yum! Though I would let it sit a bit in the glass as it comes across a bit cool in the nose die to alcohol content. Still delish for me! — 9 years ago

Casa Madero

3V Valle de Parras Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2013

Smells like a green-leaf sort of cab, but then pulls a switch and turns into a mouthful of raspberry jam (technically dry jam). Then the char and tannins show up, slowly taking over until the finish. — 10 years ago

Fruity, tannic and a hint of char. Absolutely delicious.

9.7

Huge progression from the old worlds that we just pivoted from. Lavish bouquet of opulent fruits and a touch of menthol and bacon fat. Palette is explosive. The winemaker has packed a quart into a pint pot. Palette consists of jam, nutmeg, black olives, toast, and a hint of truffles. A huge fruit-bomb that I suggest you pair with you wife, or significant other. Stay home and switch the cellphones to silent... — 9 years ago

Valle Isarco / Eisacktaler Sylvaner 2011

Wine in my memory forever. Enjoyed on several occasions at Backstreet Cafe in 2013-2014. So light and refreshing, no needing to 'switch to red' with this one. restaurant price was only $39. Even non-white wine drinkers would be obsessed. Alas, it is no where to be found now. Not even new vintages.. Wahhh! — 10 years ago

Weingut Battenfeld-Spanier

Hohen-Sülzen Riesling 2013

2013. Bait and switch here, in a good way. Nose offers the purest, barely ripe peaches and appley scents, inviting you to think it's going to be Kabinett style, off- dry. And then WHAM! In the mouth it's crisp, linear, and minerally as all get out and bone dry. Great acidity too. — 10 years ago
