Domaine Zind Humbrecht

Clos St. Urbain Rangen de Thann Pinot Gris 1995

'95 Pinot Gris - still a little young and needed some opening up. Golden honeyed flavors with yellow pear, Apple, lemon peel, some slight spiciness with enough acidity to cut through most foods. Paired well with caramelized duck at Sepia. $197/bottle — 9 years ago

Viuva José Gomes da Silva & Filhos

Collares Ramisco 1999

Incredible. I think Portuguese wine is so underrated. This had the complexity of a Barolo. Tannic but elegant, the fruit still present even at that age. Coworker said it drinks like a sepia photograph, love that. — 10 years ago

Vista Mar

Central Valley Carménère 2013

Almost as good as the Sepia. A little fruitier but quite good. — 10 years ago

Woodside Vineyards

Woodside Santa Cruz Mountains Chardonnay 2010

Courtney Cochran
9.3

*Fascination Street* - deep amber hue, electric caramel nose, Meyer lemon toast, hazelnut brioche, crushed rock fabulosity. On the palate: med acid, high-mod alc, bit o' wood tannins...flavors of macadamia-lemon oil delight, sunset, toaster and sepia. Wants some Coltrane-In-Paris tunes, a retro frame of mind and good company. Ready: go. — 12 years ago

Domaine la Lorentine

Lirac 2005

From Domaine de Marcoux, great dinner at Sepia Chicago — 13 years ago

Schoffit

Sommerberg Alsace Grand Cru AOC Riesling 2004

Really awesome Riesling - a fun trip down memory lane. The nose is just pure heaven with an extremely rich palate. Not quite as much acidity as on their Rangen grand crus but really decadent and easy drinking. Turns me into a Kid at a candy shop. $18/glass at Sepia — 9 years ago

Suertes del Marqués

La Solana Vino de Parcela Cordón Trenzado Listan Negro

Eating dinner at sepia in chicago. The wonderful Arthur Hon asked what I like to drink. I gave some thoughts and be surprised us with this spot-on perfect selection. Tart cherry with red plum, balanced tannins and a nice long finish — 10 years ago

Domaines des Marnes Blanches

Côtes du Jura Trousseau 2012

Certainly the rustic expression of Trousseau: bitter herbs in aroma, plenty of acidity. It's currently like great Trousseau in sepia but traditional wines have a way of becoming younger as they age. Will check in on this one again. — 10 years ago
