Tenterden Bacchus 2018

Waitrose. Delightful English white. Melon and peach, grassy and zesty freshness to it, slight acidity to cut through things but without lingering. — 5 years ago

English bubbles. Strawberries and cream! Underripe strawberries, creamy strawberry spread on the nose. Chalky. Pink lady/Fuji Apple type crisp on the palate. Strawberry short bread finish. Very solid. Nice wine, @Mark Flesher . — 6 years ago

I don't have a lot of experience with Rosé bubbles to begin with. But this is very much balanced and quite a bit more balanced than I was expecting. Nose of strawberries and cream. Entry was more of a slightly underripe strawberry with some melon and cream. Nice medium bubbles. Not too big and obnoxious and makes the wine seem a little lighter. A little over 40% Pinot noir and about 30/30 Pinot meunier and Chardonnay. 12% abv. In a nice spot.

Have yet to have an EK bottle disappoint. This is in a fantastic window right now. So good. From the winery; ‘In the glass, the 2013 Small Town Pinot is a very pretty medium garnet color. Explosive aromas of crushed red cherry, forest floor and spice abound, followed by an outright party of ripe cranberry, strawberry, black plum and rhubarb pie on the palate. All rounded out by hints of juniper berry, nutmeg and cloves. A hair riper than last year, but no less graceful, there’s a pleasant sense of all-around finesse.’ All ringing true tonight. Loved this. — 8 years ago

One of my favorite rosés out there and might have to grab a case next spring. A bowlful of fruit in the glass and so refreshing on a scorching 89 degree evening in Minnesota. On September 22. — 8 years ago

Hattingley Valley

Classic Reserve English Sparkling Pinot Noir Blend

Founded in 2008 by Simon and Nicola Robinson, Hattingley Valley is located in Hampshire, England and their estate vineyard is set on chalky soils. The ‘Classic Reserve’ is a blend of several vintage wines (18% reserve wines) and opens with biscuit aromas with lemon zest and shades of salted Marcona almond. The palate unveils a lovely mouthfeel as brisk acidity and salinity races through pear, wet stone and kumquat flavors. Drink 2019-2025- 90

Bloomsbury Brut Sparkling Chardonnay Blend

First dance with British bubbles, not Champagne but pretty damn close. Very good structure and acid. Over priced when you compare it to NV Champs. But The region is now on my radar and I am looking forward to things to come. — 8 years ago

The Steven Kent Winery

The Premier Livermore Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2009

I think this is my favorite wine from steven kent. Would love to try this against some good vintage lineages. It's got a great nose, mouth watering acid and flavors, and enough tannins to get your attention. Not dark dark fruit. More mixed with prominent red fruit. Really in a nice spot. These wines are really meant to have this kind of age on them. — 8 years ago
