Bright, rose-colored, lovely mousse. The label as a riff on old balsamic? Clever. — 9 years ago

Cochon Wines

Petite Cochon White Rhone Blend 2013

This little piggy went to market......and he found a diamond amongst the bulk pretender riff raff! Howdy doody honeydew melon, subtle stone, prickly pineapple, quietly layered lanolin, sour stone fruit and yet sweet star fruit, all laced with the judicious doses of juicy acid drops. Only 600 cases produced?? Karma check cashed in. You're welcome! — 9 years ago

Blanchot Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay 2011

Like listen to opening whaling guitar riff of ACDC's thunderstruck from down a hallway. Precise and piercing. Wants many years — 10 years ago

Retsina of Attica

9.1

An uncharacteristically delicate riff on Retsina, this wine featured only a subtle nod to the resinated flavor that can dominate lesser examples. This dry, light-bodied wine featured subtle elements of elderberry, rose water, quince and Meyer lemon. Paired perfectly with dolmas. — 9 years ago

Domaine des Tourelles

Grande Cuvée Syrah du Liban 2009

9.6

This has a very lovely riff of sweet monastic spice, delicate fruit, not show'y, nuanced red fruits and a ever so slight note of tomato vine note but then some sweetness comes back, sweet liquorice smoke, amazing complexity. In the mouth this has freshness and a deft touch on the mouth, even a freshness, a great wine. — 10 years ago
