Jérôme Chezeaux

Vosne-Romanée Pinot Noir 2013

This wine is a marvel of complexity that unfold as the minutes tick by. At first an herbal salt n pepper bomb it unfolds little by little like a delicate origami crane (clearly I’ve been crafting) to show its angles. A soundly linear wine with a...not quite a kick...but a huzzah in the bitter greens direction. And a bedrock of cola. Cherry cola. My favorite part of Pinot noir is the cola-leaden earth. Macerated black cherries hold down the fort. For all this complexity it is a straight shooting wine: the pal with a crazy life story who can distill information into NPR-worthy sound bites. It’s a beautiful babe that I think will hold up for years. Looking forward to seeing the flowers and earth in, say, 2021. — 7 years ago

Nice, love the calling out NPR! I'm nerdy, it's about almost all I listen to...
Now I've had some Domaine Des Chézeaux bottles in the past, but I don't think they're related.

@Severn Goodwin ha, yeah NPR keeps me going on LA traffic. I don’t know if Domaine Chezeaux is related or not!

Vigne Alte Bardolino Classico Chiaretto Corvina Blend Rosé 2017

Strawberry Citrus? Is that a thing? It is for this wine! If you can find it, buy a bunch, your glass will be empty quite quickly.

On the Lawn at Tanglewood tonight for our first (non-classical) show of the season. Tonight is NPR's live taping of Wait Wait...Don't Tell Me! Expect to hear me clapping somewhere in the background. The WWDTM team should have the show on the air by either this weekend or the following.

St Innocent Winery

Shea Vineyard Pinot Noir 2013

Favorite of a spring tasting with the winemaker - I slepped this wine all the way to Germany to drink it with the head of NPR News/Germany/SWR. A very good wine which traveled well raspberry/cherry nose. Rather more cherry than raspberry on the palate very Burgundian very elegant very classy, impressive! Still very good even with all the changes, airplane travel via Dallas, London, Munich and the Autobahn at 138 Miles per hour. No bottle shock superb. — 9 years ago

Domaine La Bonneliere

Saumur Tradition Cabernet Franc Rosé 2017

Nothing better than a Cabernet Franc rosé! The dusty notes follow through even in this style, acid is comfortable and easy going. This bottle is like a sweater on a chilly summer solstice evening, always welcome!
