Tarlant

Zero Brut Nature Champagne Blend

Awesome farmer fizz on our way to our Willamette Valley honeymoon! Aboard the Amtrak Empire Builder passing through Montana right now. NV with 2007 base wines; 2/2014 disgorgement. Spends 5 years on lees and has the rich autolytic character to show for it but still has focus and plenty of verve as well. Pours a medium gold hue. Rich, concentrated nose of ripe as well as baked yellow apples, leesy autolytic fresh brioche notes, crushed chalk, Parmigiano rind, subtle almond and a tiny bit of baking spice character. Cohesive and harmonious nose. On the palate, it's a bit more focused and mineral driven, still has the same ripe yellow apple, autolytic/leesy, and almond notes but with the crushed chalk minerality taking a more central role. Acid is medium (+) to high, medium (-) body, bone dry,
alcohol is moderate and in balance. Some pretty stellar stuff made even better by the context in which it's being consumed. ❤️

Interesting - do you hop on and off or just straight thru to the final destination? I noticed there's a California Zephyr that goes to SF 🌉

@Ryan M it stops at a lot of places but not really for enough time to get off and do anything before departing - mostly just enough time to let people on (or off, if that happens to be their final destination). Still a great time with great views though!

Pure Honey Mead

Another flavorful Mead of the lesser sweet variant. I rate this on the same level of greatness as the SkyRiver Mead, although this one is a little bit more dry. It gives it an almost beer like property, though it's still rich and smooth like a wine should be. — 10 years ago

Domaine Dujac

Morey Saint Denis Pinot Noir 2012

Drinking some awesome red Burgundy and watching the world (Montana, to be more specific) go by. Nice stuff; potentially starting to enter a slightly awkward, muted phase but very good nonetheless, it has that ethereal elegance that makes good red Burgundy so special. Pours a pale to medium (-) intensity ruby hue. Nose of sour red cherries, wild raspberries, dirty, freshly harvested rhubarb, roses, a mossy, humid forest floor character, some delightfully funky mushroom and savory olive notes, and just a touch of clove character from partial new oak. Palate is soft and elegant, showing more sour cherry, wild raspberry, dirty rhubarb, roses, damp forest soil, and clove, with that funky mushroom and olive character still present but definitely not as evident as it is on the nose as well as an additional subtle licorice root note. Acid is medium (+), body is medium (-) with great, silky texture and hyper fine-grained tannins of medium (-) intensity. Would be interested to stash one of these away for a few more years to see if it would unfurl a little bit more. — 7 years ago

Erik, I'd hold any additional bottles for another 8 years. Dujac makes wines that are meant to be cellared. Still waiting 05's & younger.
