Hole In The Clouds

Michel & Stéphane Ogier (d'Ampuis)

La Rosine Syrah 2011

A gorgeous bouquet of violets came rising immediately on the first pour, bursting into my nose showing only a hint of barbecue sauce and what's to come. 30 minutes later bacon was grilling in the glass and smoke was rising in billowing clouds of invisible aroma. Fuck ya. Always over delivers, this one. Cote rotie throw aways? Yes please and thanks! — 11 years ago

Château Lafon-Rochet

Saint-Estèphe Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 1995

A black hole. Classic nose of cedar, currants and cigar box. Medium body in the mouth with dark fruit, minerals and a wall of tannin. The eternal question of who will win, fruit or tannin. — 12 years ago

...and then, in dreaming,
The clouds methought would open, and show riches
Ready to drop upon me; that, when I waked,
I cried to dream again.

Domaine Sainte Lucie

MIP* Made In Provence Côtes de Provence Rosé Grenache Blend 2014

The 2014 vintage is better than the rest. Taste the pluots sloshing around your rosé hole. Dry af, & give 0 fux. — 11 years ago

Emilio Lustau

Fine Old Rare Sherry Palo Cortado de Jerez 1/50 Vides Jerez-Xérès-Sherry Palomino Fino

Tip top quality. Dark and dirty tones on the nose lead to an eyeopening showcase of depth of flavor carried with such grace and softness. Pure artistry and craftmanship. Homerun, slamdunk, hole in one. — 11 years ago

Kapcsándy Family Winery

State Lane Vineyard Rosé Blend 2009

Tight on the pop but opened up quickly. Great beach wine with an interesting weight and complexity--not your standard mid day sipping rose. Open this when the clouds start to come in and you put on your hoodie....you are ready for a night of drinking.... — 12 years ago

450 slm Prosecco di Treviso Prosecco

Drank the hole bottle. Closer to French "Pettilant Natural" than any prosecco I have tried.
Sour, a little yeasty, very refreshing . Go in with an open mind!
