Wine For The World

Keplinger Biyela Red Blend 2012

Interesting project pairing U.S. winemakers with those from emerging global economies. Ntsiki Biyela, the South African half of this pairing, is a rising star and I'm dying to get her stuff solo. This one's a unique blend, at least for me: Cabernet Sauvignon, Sangiovese, with some Malbec and merlot. Rich and ripe, dark fruit, fairly straightforward but wonderfully intense flavor. — 11 years ago

Priorat Grenache Blend 2004

This was the first wine that we brought of the night. H Keplinger killed it with this vintage. What an unbelievable elegant expression of Garnacha from Priorat. Despite the fact that it is 15.5% alcohol, it is completely masked. Soft tannins, velvety texture that feels like silk on the palate. Bravo! — 12 years ago

For a La Cocina California Rosé 2013

Let this warm up, don't drink at fridge temp. Textured Rose that will be awesome in a couple years. Nice backbone all the way to finish. — 12 years ago
