25th Anniversary Dinner for my parents with Rey — a year ago
Field blend of Riesling, Pinot Gris, Pinot Beurot, Muscat and Pinot Noir from the Engelgarten, a vineyard with poor, gravelly soils located just outside the walls of Bergheim (about 10 miles north of Colmar, in the Haut Rhin). Pure, expressive nose with notes of citrus, rubber and minerals. Intense, dry, textured. Slightly ripe. Long, saline finish. — 2 years ago
One of my favorite Alsace. Complantage and unlike anything else. Deep golden color. Still much to give. — 4 years ago
Recognizable as sauv blanc, but so different from my frequent New Zealand sauv blancs. No grapefruit or grassiness. No cat pee. Just classic sauv blanc fragrance and minerality. — 8 years ago
Old world style Syrah from Washington. A great surprise — 9 years ago
Tasted blind while knowing the list of wines. Guessed only the appellation. Perfumed bouquet of strawberries, earth, bitter dark chocolate and red flowers. Nice acidity, good balance. Tannin is light, which is nice. A bit feminine and beautiful wine. I enjoyed it much more during the afterparty. IMO good value and great style.

Yet again a great match for Sakana with Hsing/Mimi but this time Vollenweider provided good competition. The Omakase was same as last time, last day of the monthly menu so a good comp. Thought the food was actually a bit off compared to previous time but still what a great combo with the wines. — 2 years ago
Light and dry but funky, almost yeasty tannins mixed with berries. Distinct old vine Chilean varietals that I would like to see more of. — 2 years ago
Discrete nose of white fruit with pears and also a slight minty and smoke feel, very discrete. The palate is gorgeous, such balance between the perfect acidity and slight richness of fruit and elegance. Another great 2017 CDB. 90-91
Nez discret de poires et une touche de menthe et de fumée mais sans déranger. Le vin est délicieux, quel équilibre entre cette tension appuyée et cette richesse de fruit, juste parfait. Un autre beau blanc 2017. 90-91 + — 4 years ago
Compelling af. Botrytized notes and mineral character abound. Finishes dry. 👌🏼 — 6 years ago
Classic Chambertin. Cherry flavors, Red licorice , a bit of Spice and Woody tones. Decanted for 45 mins and its getting better with every glass. — 7 years ago
Serious Burgundy- spice and moss- finish is forever- want to revisit in 2 years or so. — 9 years ago
