Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 2016

@delectable this is sauvignon only officially (90 percent so it doesnt count as a blend even with that semmilon bit)

no real conditions for a tasting but this is so lovely i have to try describing it.

90% sauvignon blanc
10% semmilion

three types of yeast were added to fermentation.
one year burgundy barrels ageing.

13.3% abv

medium plus body.
high acidity.

mind and senses blowing sauvignon blanc.

melon, grass and bell pepper 👃

bitterness first with added citrus peel and some tropics 👄

light 🎯

complex and balanced lingering pleasure.

this is superb.

3rd white from feldstein and it keeps getting better.

super vfm (for 90 nis as part of a threesome. regular price is 125 nis and still worth it)

paired well with zaatar and 🍅 spicy salad and homemade hummus and pita bread.

my highest score wine in delectable.

Another 4th Friday for the books! Insane pulls this month to follow up the most epic month (April) that we’ve ever had!

Butterscotch, sopapilla seasoning, toasted pita on the nose. Palate reminded me a bit of a Ritchie chard! Nuttiness to it. Honeyed but not tart or sugar driven. Simply delicious.

Ramnista Le Millenaire Naoussa Xinomavro 2000

Some #xinomavro potential here from #naoussa as this holds up pretty well after 15 years. Exquisite nose of tomato paste, cherries and layers of violet conducting leather and earthy aromas. Medium-bodied, high acidity and a pleasant 10 seconds aftertaste. Had it along with some kalamata olives and some other greek pita delicacies. — 10 years ago

Tchotiashvili Family Vineyards

Dry Amber SB Muskaturi 2017

Georgian natural wine. High acid, full of vibrance. On the nose- fresh grass, wildflower, orange peels, fennel seed, blueberry, heirloom tomato. On the palate, underripe blueberry, cumin/coriander, orange blossom. Delicious with hummus and pita, olives, eggplant. — 5 years ago

Rivers-Marie

Bearwallow Vineyard Pinot Noir 2016

Very typical Anderson Valley pinot. Not your lush, opulent fruit that is over the top and unidimensional although the nose may go this direction at first. Front is raspberry with a touch of sweet and black tea. Middle has an oregano influence and some cola. Finish is dusty rose and raspberry rich. Not a fruit bomb pinot. Went well with hummus and pita chips but the herbal side of this would go well with a lot of game and Mediterranean fare. Will hold another 7 to 10, so hold or drink! — 7 years ago

This is a reasonably priced wine, with just a hint of oak. Smooth, somewhat sweet, not sour and citrusy. Enjoyed with spicy hummus, pita, salami appetisers. Would be a good Chardonnay for people who don’t normally like to drink it. — 7 years ago

In a really, really nice place. Tons of depth and berry fruit with perfect minerality. The age is bringing a really pleasant touch of plastic to the nose. This wine needs food. It was very successful with some baba ganoush and pita tonight. The Mourvèdre picked up on the smoky eggplant and really ran with it. — 7 years ago

Hi Stephen. Indeed. The wonderful couple company made not only the wine but the evening a lovely experience.

Kabatepe Red Blend 2013

A modest blackberry base with wispy but sustained tannins. Some earthy spices too. Really, this is the first wine I've had from Turkey, and if this is representative of the quality, I'd seek it out. This wine would pair well with a great many simple, earthy foods. I feel I could drink this for quite a while with an order of hummus and pita. — 9 years ago
