Picked up from ABC in Florida. — 7 years ago
A Syrah-like Mondeuse. Aromatic, purplely (yes, purplely) with ripe fruit, though it’s the texture that’s earning it high marks. Someone on an earlier thread described it as “velour” (not in the matching-juicy-sweatsuit-circa-2004-tacky way, but in a blanket you want to wrap yourself in at the end of a satisfying day sort of way). A solid wine with which to toast to the happy occasion of having an old New York friend in town. Can’t remember the vintage. Matt? — 7 years ago
Rich aroma with dry taste. I am enjoying, and price was reasonable. — 8 years ago
An easy to drink dry Riesling with a smooth finish. Well balanced light citrus notes with a hint of kiwi and lychee. More on the sweeter side of dry Riesling, but not a sweet Riesling. Loved it. — 10 years ago
2014 has come to fruition!! Brown sugar beaches awash in maple nut, peach stone, amarula fruit and cinnamon bread aromas knitted tightly with golden malt thread. Perfect texturally, velvety brown sugar, cedar, sweet tobacco, vanilla bean, chocolate milk, vanilla extract on applewood. The full spectrum! — 10 years ago
Unbelievably fresh and vibrant at 33 years. Black cherry, pine needle & cedar — 11 years ago
Little funk then baking spice, earth, tea, and pine needle. Savory and delicious. Good stuff for a WV wine. Day 3: This has added depth, really delicious. — 11 years ago

Golden yellow with pale reflections at the rim. Nose of lemon/pear skin/hints of pineapple, caramel, nuts, and a thread of mint and a nice mineral/flint tone. The palate possesses a dizzying array of flavors. The same fruits and caramel and nuttiness play out and are joined by a lemon oil, and light straw note. Big and broad and at the same time precise and delineated. This was fantastic, and firing on all cylinders. Gained depth as the hours unfolded. — 6 years ago


Lovey pale gold color with a hint of leaf green. Medium body, Pear and honeysuckle on the nose. Pit fruit, floral notes, & mild juicy acidity with subtle, unidentifiable minerality on the finish. (Grilled rubbed pork chops, cauliflower pearls, w/ truffle & asparagus cream sauce) — 8 years ago
Very smooth, great by itself or pairing. — 8 years ago

Great fruit, finishes dry and smooth! — 9 years ago
Pear-citrus on the nose. Lemon grass, mild acid, nice minerality @the beginning of the bottle. But - Wow this mellows with some time. Palmelo on the nose. Smooth pear with a little citrus, a little sweetness. Love this one! (Chicken curry w/ rice) — 10 years ago
Got at Total Wine in Milford. Awesome everyday wine. On par or better than apothic. — 11 years ago

Citrus and slate. Laser like and pure. Slightly off dry with great depth and body. — 11 years ago
1937 Lafaurie-Peyraguey: seventy-eight years had nothing on this still-fresh show-stopper. Lucid amber color, tangy marmalade-tinged flavor, medium-weight that is not tiring to drink at all. Threads the needle with perfect balance of honeyed intensity and bright acidity. One of the best #Sauternes ever to grace these lips. The perfect #wine when the wolves of life are howling outside your door. — 11 years ago

This is a full bodied old vine Riesling that is still crisp and dry. There is citrus, petrol and minerality on the nose. The front has a hint of petrol that finishes with green apple. Very enjoyable. — 6 years ago
