Review:

Martini and Rossi Moscato d' Asti
From the region of Piedmont, Italy,
this wine is made of Moscato Bianco grapes handpicked.

When I tasted it the first thing I noticed was the aroma. It has a very floral kind of smell, and also has hints of banana, and maybe lemon. The body of the wine has a water-like consistency, and you can feel this when you sip it. It has a balanced kind of taste. Not too sweet and not too acidic. Very pleasant overall. I certainly recommend it. — 8 years ago

Most of the fruit is handpicked by Clendenen, largely from the exceptional hillside parcels that sit high in the extolled Bien Nacido Vineyard -- Shows Red & Blue Fruit that's Sappy and Structured. All in All, another of ABC's Poised & Polished Pinot Noirs from the Santa Maria Valley... — 9 years ago

Handpicked grapes, a wine full of mulberries and pepper. Great balance between acidity and alcohol. Colheita manual, aromas de amoras, pimenta do reino e pimentão verde. Bem equilibrado e um excelente custo benefício. Vale muito a pena! — 11 years ago

100 % handpicked Chardonnay from premiere vineyards in Santa Maria. A marriage of California fruit and Burgundian minerality. A soft clay note that reminds me of Puligny. — 8 years ago

Intense complex nose. The wine is at the end of its peak or even beyond it. Variety of tertiary aromas present: confiture, cellar, cooked vegetables, leather, balsamic. Dark fruits and spices. Expressive acidity. Handpicked Syrah from Ampius village. MLF and then 18 months aging in barriques. Côte Rôtie of Northen Rhône wines are finely structured. Terres Sombres wine is typical Côte Brune. Rich and ripe. Powerful and elegant. Rating 4,1/5; WineSpectator 93/100. — 9 years ago

Incredible wine. Top five favorite. Single estate at 500m in the shadow of the Montsant Mountain Range featuring 100% old vine Garnatxa handpicked and hand selected. If you can find it, you won't be disappointed. Hints of tobacco, balanced leather with powerful fruit and tasty spices. This is wine's version of "Reservoir Dogs". — 11 years ago

A surprisingly good Malbec. Unoaked, fruity. Handpicked grapes worked fine here. Um Malbec diferente do que estamos acostumados. Sem gosto de gaveta, muito frutado, com uvas colhidas manualmente. Nenhuma passagem por madeira. Uma delicinha! — 11 years ago

Hmmm. Interesting. Not my kind of drink, but it offers complexity. Great with fried chicken 😋 B&S write-up:

This oddity of a kriek beer is rare indeed, for not only is it from one of Flanders’ original lambic breweries, it’s also made from a near-extinct sour cherry from the town of Schaerbeek. Historically nicknamed the “city of donkeys”, as donkey-drawn carts used to transport this rare Belgian varietal of sour Morello cherries, the prized fruit contains a level of depth, power and concentrated tartness which is about as close to an expression of terroir as you can find in beer.

Here, 25% old lambic beer is blended with 75% young lambic beer (made with whole handpicked Schaerbeekse cherries), before conditioning in bottle. It’s a rather straightforward process but proves to be genius – bold notes of dark berries, cherries, citrus, earth and almonds are just the beginning with this captivating offering – pour it into a big wine glass for a special taste of oude school authenticity. — 8 years ago

Great Aussie Pinot Noir from Mornington Peninsula. On the noise you get great dark cherries pepper and olive notes. On the palate it is soft tannins and long finish. — 9 years ago
