Giaconda

Estate Vineyard Chardonnay 2012

Depth and intensity. Perfumed and a touch of struck match. Unreal. — 11 years ago

Domaine A. et P. de Villaine

Bouzeron Aligoté 2008

Wow. Amazing Aligoté, not to be wasted on a Kir. Could pose as good chardonnay as well. And perfect match for the ceviche. — 12 years ago

Château Mongravey

Cru Bourgeois Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 2012

What is it about these French reds? You can pick them out from a global mix: clear and a little dry. I'm sure if I knew the regions better, I could match them - they each seem to have a signature. — 10 years ago

Château d'Yquem

Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 1979

S V
9.0

Honeyed and unctuous. Cremebrulee with a nose to match (burnt sugar). Not the top tier D'Yquem, but quite satisfying — 10 years ago

Isole e Olena

Chianti Classico Sangiovese Blend 2011

First off, I've really missed Tuscan reds. Wow. And this one is no exception. Fruit forward with red and black fruits smacking you upside the head. But a beautiful complex finish rises from behind the fruit. My only problem with this wine? The nose has ever so little funk on it. Just doesn't quite match the brilliance of the flavors. — 11 years ago

Kreuznacher Krötenpfuhl Kabinett Riesling 2012

Impeccable balance. So much energy. Enough sugar to match up with a fruit-based dessert but pristine minerality and citrusy acid to leave your palate completely refreshed. Ready to drink but will age gracefully and only get more complex. — 10 years ago

Butterdragon Hill Cabernet Sauvignon 2006

Loads of plum, mild spice, graphite....tannins are starting to integrate really well....a little grippy still but starting to even out to a nice dustiness. Drinks well now and should continue to get better. Great buy on sale at Whole Foods for under $40! — 10 years ago
