Jungfer Kabinett Riesling

Kick-Ass Kabinett! #2004 was an epic year for #Riesling in #Germany and this bottle has only moved a matter of miles from its original birthplace. Freshness is the hallmark of this incredibly clean, fleshy #Rheingau. Lovely balance that will certainly take it out another decade or more! #prinz #Kabinett #rieslingrocks — 10 years ago

Domaine Roulot

Auxey-Duresses Blanc Chardonnay 2012

As simple and direct as Chardonnay gets...restrained, uncomplicated, elegant yet with great finesse as its hallmark and clean as a whistle. Not a marquee appellation but a very classy, affordable bottle--SANTÉ! — 10 years ago

Contacto Monção & Melgaço Alvarinho 2012

Premium vinho verde from #Portugal. A fresh bouquet of citrus, peach and white flowers, the palate add the hallmark saline or salty note. The same grape in Spain is Albariño, though for the $ this is fantastic at about $15-20. Should be an insane pairing with shellfish but was an aperitif for us. — 12 years ago

Château Mouton Rothschild

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 2003

2003. Softened out more than expected but obviously still needs time. Lots of time. Hallmark grace of mouton. — 10 years ago

A first for me, but WOW! Purity, minerality, dried floral notes and subtle fruit flows into a seamless palate where crushed rocks, gentle vanilla and impressive length are hallmark notes. — 12 years ago

Drank this wine as a boost before the NY marathon. Help me beat my personal best of watching people run for 1:30 before I changed the channel. Who won? — 10 years ago

Von Winning

Deidesheimer Riesling 2012

One of the skills I'm coming to respect as a hallmark of really great producers is the ability to convey place and vintage well in their entry level bottlings. Von Winning has that hallmark. — 11 years ago
