The flagship wine from Burn Cottage, a Central Otago, New Zealand producer focused on Pinot Noir. Husband and wife owners Dianne & Marquis Sauvage sought out Ted Lemon of Littorai, and SF Chronicle's winemaker of the year for 2010 (Jon Bonné: "The simple version of Ted Lemon's story: Young American goes to Burgundy. Becomes first American to run a Burgundian wine estate. Comes back and stays true to Pinot's motherland."). Lemon oversaw the planting of the vineyards, along with all aspects of vineyard management and winemaking, chief of which being Biodynamic from inception. The label is a derivative of a 1795 fairy tale called “The Green Snake and the Beautiful Lily” which represents the ideal intersection of people and the land reflected in Biodynamics. Black cherry, citrus, and lavender pastille, with some secondary loam and herbs. — 7 years ago

After a couple strictly traditional Nebbiolos, these come across as comparatively oaky and generous. Built like a tank and delicious. Intersection of "modern" and "traditional"? — 7 years ago

My pick of Trisaetum's Pinot Noirs, the 2011 Estates Reserve is comprised of 13-20 barrels that are aged 11 months on French oak and offers elegant, complex aromatics. Dried mint, bittersweet chocolate, and lively orange zest notes lead into a wine that is bright, yet balanced. The fruit really shows up on the palate—an intersection of dried cherries and cranberry compote that finishes with a spicy jolt of white pepper. — 8 years ago

Nectar of the gods. Hazelnut, chewy with honey meets orange zest. Just beautiful intersection of robust flavors and golden color tones. — 6 years ago

On opening it shows. Great intersection of old and new world. 10 years has been good to this guy, and he’s not getting old yet. Still youthful, but rounded and integrated. Has plenty of fruit, tobacco, spice and earth. Rating likely to increase with time and air. — 6 years ago

The white blend goes perfectly with chicken, potatoes and could go very nicely with fish too! Enough body here to tackle the heavy chicken and its fixings. Great aroma, great after taste. Highly recommended. — 8 years ago

I really love this wine. Very simple yet subtle. Lots of fruits, like black berries but also lots of structure and something wild and anima. With a tiny smokiness... Yum! The reference might be stupid but, for me who is huge fan of both burgundy and north rhone, I kind of feel at the intersection of both. — 8 years ago

I’ve rated and said this before, but this is my favorite vineyard designate and vintage of all of Tor’s Chardonnays. Drinking perfectly, this to me sits at the intersection of old and new world wines. Restraint, balance with and abundance of fruit flavors. Butter, lemon curd, vanilla, with a great acidity. — 6 years ago

Jonn Grammer

9.5

Wild red cherry, orange rind, leather, shoe polish, damp leaves, licorice, birch (!). Medium bodied with full concentration. Chalky tannins and medium plus acid. Plum, roses, and dried cherries. Sprightly long length. Beautiful intersection of youth and age. — 6 years ago

Daniel Argandona

8.9

Never had this grape. Lime zest lychee fruit and unripe white peach. Not to sweet and an interesting intersection of Torrontes and Albariño . I'm kinda hooked. Nose of jasmine...like a summer time field. — 7 years ago

Lovey intersection of black cherry fruit, mossy umami earth notes, floral spice aromas, and subtle oak overtones. Loving how the sleekness and elegance coupled with blue collar charm. Palate is sharp and focused, fine and spicy tannins coat the center of the tongue. Beautiful wine that is showing well with 24 hours of air — 7 years ago

Brilliant. Deep concentration without losing freshness. Stunning intersection of honeysuckle, earth and melon. No imitation here; the thing itself. — 8 years ago

LM Segal

Outstanding PN at the intersection of Burgundy elegance and femininity and California power and extraction. Light and slightly velvety after air. Light spice with a touch of cinnamon riding the woodsy tannins. Really good, will get better. — 9 years ago

Jonathan Lipsmeyer

9.4

This wine is greater than I ever could have hoped. So young fresh and alive--like the intersection of creamed corn and cherry jam with a wild furry animal lingering in the background, staring with wide eyes. This is spectacular — 9 years ago
