Salad Days

Château Lafite Rothschild

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 1994

This ‘94 was rich and enticing - plenty of freshness and pyrazine, vanilla (light), bitter dark chocolate, and young tannins / black fruit and a finish for days — 7 years ago

Kutch Wines

Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir 2014

I wish I could remember everything we said about this when we had it a few days ago. It's got plums and red fruit plus a deliciously long finish. I definitely remember thinking that I was a fool not to order my full allocation. Excellent "entry level" wine from Jamie Kutch. — 8 years ago

Château Margaux

Premier Grand Cru Classé Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 1989

Still on my mind days later... a standout from the line-up, energetic and not quite resolved in the most compelling way. God damn am I ever a sucker for wines with tension. — 9 years ago

Love it when I have a wine that is so compelling that I'm thinking of it days later.

Ridge Vineyards

Geyserville Sonoma County Zinfandel Blend 2006

Rhone garrigue + California fruit = Rigde zin. Ching took the trip to Little Star as a throwing down of the gauntlet and pulled out the semolina flour and cornmeal for a deep dish pie. She even managed to acquire some little gems for salad. Ridge provided the finishing touch. — 10 years ago

Some Days are Stones Syrah 2012

Ah, the Rocks at Milton-Freewater produce such remarkable and distinctive fruit. Morgan Lee’s take on the Stoney Vine Syrah is outstanding. Earthy, gamey, succulent, dark and full stone fruit (plum) that just keeps going. This is good for another 5 years I think. — 7 years ago

Three (3) Floyds Brewing Co.

Zombie Dust Undead Pale Ale

Best surprise in a long time, had a bottle sent to me from my college roommate half a country away. Very floral, well hopped balanced with a good malt backbone. A balanced beer more IPA than traditional pale ale. Only 10 days old. Would definitely buy if they ever distributed to CO. — 8 years ago

Château Musar

Bekaa Valley Red Blend 1998

Now the 1998 Red Musar. Fragrant nose. Still quite tight. Reminiscing about the 2008 Musar dinner at Hearth with Serge Hochar, just a couple of days after my birthday. Quite a wine and a great winemaker and human being. — 10 years ago

Corison

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2009

After eight days of showing this wine with a coravin and going into the bottle 10 times, it's tasting as layered and interesting as the first pour. If I fall over dead somebody check my argon levels — 11 years ago

Lucky for you Argon is inert! Thanks for the feedback on the wine and the Coravin. We're trying to figure out how best to use ours.

Dom Pérignon

Brut Champagne Blend 1978

Both me and the girl enter our 40th year in 2018, so we are celebrating a couple of days early with the oldest champagne we've ever had. Special is an understatement. Tastes like I'm butt naked, face down in a seafood tower on the top of the Empire State Building, waiting on a helicopter to come take us to Waffle House to sober up before we get in a Ferrari to see a 35mm print of E.T. Endless thanks to @Christian Moses for this bottle. Will remember it for a long time to come. ❤🥂 Happy New Years Friends — 7 years ago

Château Léoville Barton

Saint-Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 2006

Drank this over the course of 6 days using Coravin...still too young, but the wine really opened up by the last day. Smells and tastes like a Grand Bordeaux St. Julien wine as it should. I used to this wine to test the Coravin. It is clear that oxidation starts right after the first pour. — 9 years ago
