Having the absolute joy of this bad boy tonight. Not seen or had Rolly Gassmann since I worked in a Michelin Cellar where for me, they were one of the best white wine producers we stocked! — 10 years ago

Les Grangeons de l'Albarine

Altesse en "Paradis" Roussette du Bugey White Blend

If there were ever a moment for personification of a grape, it is when describing the Savoie / Bugey beauty Altesse. She is the fresh air that graces the valley, gazing upon the alps. She is graceful and innocent. She wears cranberry silk slips and strappy kitten heels and a flatteringly floral fragrance formulated just for her in a fancy Parisian parfumerie. Imagine Maria, from the Sound of Music, post-nunnery, on a trip to post-war Paris.

Or forget all that and just trust me - this is lovely, lovely wine.

Rolly poly but light on its feet. Silky with crunchy minerality and bright, fresh yellow apple notes with a textured, lasting finish. It's one of our favorite things. (OK, OK, enough with the Sound of Music references.)

It was a joint effort - @Jeff Savigny . One of my Frankly Wines teamsters started it and I couldn't resist the SoM references!

Kappelweg de Rorschwihr Alsace Vendanges tardives Gewürztraminer

Great complexity of very ripe lychee, caramelised pineapple, confit ginger and orange with a subtle nite of rose petal. A touch of evolution and honey, luscious palate with superb vivacity. — 10 years ago

Rolly Gassmann

Alsace AOC Pinot Blanc 2011

Deep, full and rich with lots of honey on the nose. The richness continues through the palate with hints of sweetness and big acidity with just a touch of spiciness that continues through the finish. — 10 years ago

Love this producer. Very classic !

Partida Creus

Vinel.lo ( VN ) Garnacha Blend

Some say it's like trousseau. I say it's more like poulsard without the edges. Whatever - that's splitting the hairs of a wine geek. It's juicy and bright with a round rolly texture. A bit of spritz from dissolved CO2 so swirl hard for maximum deliciousness. — 11 years ago
