Corsair’s gin is still made at their first facility in Bowling Green, Kentucky, and remains a personal favorite in their portfolio. There’s an appealing oiliness to the gin’s texture – tasting of lemon and orange extracts. Brand ambassador Will Atkinson describes it as an Americanized Hendrick’s, namely for the inclusion of cucumber along with the botanicals. The cucumber’s freshness helps soften the spirit’s finish, which otherwise offers a sumptuously juicy expression of gin. — 8 years ago

1990 Paul Jaboulet Aine Hermitage La Chapelle Syrah. Dinner w JB and Mc at Mic's. Epic. Absolutely perfect. Mc especially loved the meaty, peppery, savory notes in the wine. Super smooth, long finish. Drank this before the '85 Henshke and this won out. Perfect. — 10 years ago

Bright fruit. Surprisingly long finish for such a young wine. A little glycerine taste on the finish. Odd in that it is seems to be losing flavor while open. But smooth and good mouthfeel. Drank with Ryan and JB with cooked goose from Della. — 10 years ago

JB is a fruit bomb. Not my style, but I could see it going well with paninis or 'za. Caymus drinkers will enjoy. — 10 years ago

This did NOT suck! Luscious red and blue fruit, lavender essence, brilliant energy/acidity, some exotic spicyness dissolving into some tonal smoky minerality. Moderately long finish. I was not familiar with this producer but let the somm (at a restaurant with JB chops) guide me to something that made wonderful music with a brilliant pork collar feast. 100% Carignan...perhaps my first from Chile. And still a baby...should be even more fantastic in the 2020's. — 9 years ago

Magnum 2007 Jean-Marc Pillot Chassagne-Montrachet. J&D B brought for our dinner together at Vin. K and I had never had this particular wine before. Never even heard of it. But, as usual, JB was able to enlighten us with something new and absolutely beautiful. It was just everything I love abt a great white wine. Balanced. Perfect. — 10 years ago
