Ripe, banana meat yellow foam dissipates quickly to Petri dish mold spots, or forming galaxies. Massive caramel nose, and a sexual sweetness featuring a typical, sweat-funk backside. Her name is Candy. She's a double D (devil dancer). She oozes patchouli, dark brown sugar, brittle, clove, and olive oil-drenched cinnamon toast! There is a resinous character to her slow undulations, a burnt corn tortilla she fans the flames of Gehenna with, while garlands of hop flowers spill crackling ashen leaves from their tight nodes. Strands of minuscule bubbles pour forth, champagne-like from the ruddy amber pit. She's gonna bite you, but what a bite, followed by lingering kisses of a burning cotton candy factory! — 10 years ago

Tangerine cream brûlée, pineapple upside down cake and lemon poppyseed muffin snootfull. Merengue textured head that slides off the glass in a bombshell of lemon oil napalm. Cake donut with lemongrass icing that gets tinny and dense as it drops you down the mother shaft of hops! Something cultured and yeasty here right out of Dr. Jekyll's petri samples. It'll change you! But you must hurry...oops today is 420-too? Gorgeous amber full of dinosaur DNA. — 10 years ago

Loved this. Thank you Dean Gold for a list stocked with fun oddballs like this. Never had a rosé like this before. It has the thirst-quenching crispness and juiciness of a rosé but the fruit flavors and fleshiness of it are more like red wine than pink. Not like a lambrusco or an actual sparkling red though. There is also a strong sensation of crushed rock and not surprisingly it's super-cloudy and constantly changing in the glass. Apparently this has both white grapes and red in the mix. Lots of fun was had imagining the flesh-eating monsters that would evolve and rise up from this if you left it in a petri dish or fed it after midnight. — 9 years ago

Ok Delectable, this is the second day in a row you don't recognize my wine! Who the f-k is Agostini Petri, can anyone enlighten me? Please. Anyhow in my glass I have a beautiful wine, 1997 Castello Vicchiomaggio La Prima Chianti Classico Riserva, bottled by John Matta. Initially I found myself in Cht9, with dry, sandy tannins but the aftertaste was more like a full-bodied Bordeaux. This is a mature wine, full of dark fruit and cherries, smoked meats, good grip of tannins and acidity that provides a back-bone. Just wish I had lots and lots of bottles in my cellar. Should keep on aging beautifully many more years to come. — 10 years ago
