Shoe Crazy Wine

Frank Cornelissen

Susucaru Rosato Malvasia Blend 2014

Crazy rosatto by the king of Etna Frank Cornelissen ! Powerful, complex and intriguing nose on wild strawberries, pomegranate, grapefruit, cut grass... super fresh palate with kicking acidity, high bitterness and... tannins ! Radical wine and I love it ! — 9 years ago

Château d'Yquem

Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend

Paul Costigan
9.1

1990: Corked, unfortunately. My mom had the best line, "It sure tastes better than it smells!" I recall what it was like on release, hard candy sweetness with a surprisingly light framework, particularly compared to both the '88 & '89 on release, and the crazy depth of the'90 Ch. Filholt Creme de tete, which was massively concentrated. This bottle still had oomph, yet wasn't all there. — 10 years ago

Jacques Selosse

Initial Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Champagne Chardonnay

Preserved apricot/peach and clove spiked, baked green apples with spiced pecans and white pepper. This sort of bottle makes anything a celebration. Crazy good

Waited a long time to open this one.

Wasn't so sure at first, a little tired, but after some time opened up beautifully. Lots of honeyed nutty notes, very full, then crazy acid finish, very clean finishing — 12 years ago

Comtes de Champagne Grand Crus Brut Blanc de Blancs 1961

Wowsers. Super complex. Got to try it because someone sent it back to the Somm because it wasn't bubbly.. Loaded with stone fruit, mint, sage, crazy minerality and zippin acidity. — 10 years ago

Viña Tondonia Reserva Rioja Tempranillo Blend 2002

Crazy good paired with dipping into gamba al ajillo (emphasis added), at Napa's groovy/real Zuzu, catching a classic deeply dirty nose while still sporting sun-drenched fruit that initially reworks one's first blush front mouth with an iodine edge that morfs into red and black fruit edgy with acid/tannin slow dancing to the depths and begging for another pinch of broth soaked chewy freshly baked bread and the associated next swig of this sweet juice...rhythmically stellar by day or by night😎🌌👣🍷🌀🎼

PS hit Zuzu (friendly, delicious and real...
