Domaine de la Grange des Pères

Focus Okanagan Valley Riesling 2012
Domaine Courbet
Violette Côtes du Jura Trousseau 2013
Lots of CO2 in here, so it requires some heavy shaking and/or a long decant. As a general rule, I don't find trousseau to have quite the intrigue that poulsard does, but this one is a little stonier and less simple-fruity (and more structured) than most, with a complexion of cranberry and roses. The fruit unfurls a bit more and picks up a satiny texture once it kicks that CO2, while still having a nice acidic zing. 10% whole cluster according to the importer web page. — 10 years ago

Baruffo Chianti Classico Sangiovese 2011
What a delicious Chianti. I'm so into this right now. It tastes like something and I can't quite figure out what it is. So the element of intrigue here is keeping me interested.... I'm editing this post to tell you I figured it out: toffee and tobacco. amazing. — 10 years ago
Château Malescasse
Cru Bourgeois Haut-Médoc Red Bordeaux Blend 2001
Steak & claret Friday! This is the most reliable, value wine I have ever bought for the home cellar... I should have bought a 2nd case. It has great power and dark currant fruit, savory intrigue, developed texture and excellent acid. What else could I ask for? Another box! — 11 years ago

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. — 10 years ago

Lemon drops, touch of butter menthol, florals, dribble of honey, a little thyme. Fragrant little cherub.
Combines refreshment, interest, intrigue and just tastes damn good.
