Les Lions

Lincoln Peak Vineyard

Limestone Vermont Frontenac Blanc LaCrescent 2016

Pears and apples and lemons and vanilla and lions and tigers and bears, oh my. Dry and delicious. I highly recommend.

This wine is made down the way from my childhood home and for that reason I am semi-biased. They have a lovely little tasting room with a beautiful porch looking out onto some of the vines and a pond. They also have a wonderful summer concert series featuring a picnic on the lawn, wine, and well-paired music.

I don’t mean to sound like a walking, talking billboard — but I’m all about supporting small town businesses and these guys really deserve it. I honestly love what they’ve done and what they’ve been producing. (I also previously rated this but on site)

Hall Wines

Coeur Napa County Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

Coeur from Hall is not the best Cab they produce. The lions share of Hall wines are spectacular. 95+. The Coeur is a bit tight on the tannins but loaded with berries on the front and had a nice long finish. Needs a few years in the bottle to soften the tannins. Vintage 2012. — 10 years ago

K Vintners

M.C.K Motor City Kitty Syrah 2006

The '06 K Vintners Syrah 'Motor City Kitty' is an opaque purple/black full-bodied wine. Expressive and succulent aromas of smoked meats, roasted spice, blackberry and black cherry jump from the glass. Some flowery and tarry notes are evident on the lengthy finish. I just need to find out what Charles Smith's connection with Detroit, the Motor City, is all about. Is it the Tigers, the Lions, or an old girlfriend? — 13 years ago
