Stalwart Ship

Marcassin

Three Sisters Vineyard Chardonnay 2004

As they say elsewhere, Mar-ca-sin. That is a space ship. Viscosity like a ground up bee hive poured out of a blender. Chit's where you would expect it to be. — 9 years ago

Domaine Gourt de Mautens (Jérôme Bressy)

Rasteau Red Rhone Blend

Tucking into this after a friend recommended I try it after my usual stalwart of gigondas. He was right.

He was also wrong to find something that suits my pallet that's also sold out everywhere. Cunt.

Boyd

Oak Knoll District Cabernet Sauvignon 2010

My wife went to the Boyd Vineyard last weekend on a private tour recommended by a colleague. She liked the 2010 Cab, Oak Knoll District so much, she had the vineyard ship a case home for my birthday. extremely smooth even without giving time to breathe. Not overpowered berry or other fruit, dry but without dust on the rim. You will make a good impression if you bring this to the next dinner party invite but volunteer to open on site as you may not find it again. Just returned from a business trip to my French parent company. I did not taste anything better over there. Concerned how the 2011 will fare given how that poor year is shaping up but there are exceptions, — 11 years ago

Silk Oak

Old Vine Zinfandel 2013

I started this with a blue corn ship / salsa hors d'oeuvre, an unexpected, yet surprisingly delicioso pairing that made me exclaim "le ole!" This is a good bang for your buck right here. — 10 years ago

Uinta Brewing Company

Punk'N Harvest Pumpkin Ale

Briny ship wood. Toasty, briars, forest litter, definite fall notes!!
Spices are balanced, pumpkin subdued. Really a great beer outside of everything! Fits the season, vacillating between maple and dried leaf.

Bodegas Cruz de Alba

Crianza Ribera del Duero Tempranillo 2007

Rye toast, cranberry laden gravy, and morel nose with cinnamon and peppercorns in prune smoke. There is dark chocolate in this miasma, too. Blood-thick, with enough residual oak to build your own "Cruz" ship. A virtual reliquary, this dark chunky beast swings like a bat across your front teeth, and doesn't forget the back! Big Spanish monster with hard clay, bonfire, plum reduction, and a brassy finish that hovers around in the shadows for a minute finishing with cassis and a little bakers chocolate for good measure. A steal at 13$! — 11 years ago

Louis Perdrier

Brut Excellence Sparkling Blend

For a non-vintage French sparkling wine this is an excellent value. It costs $10 a bottle in Lafayette Louisiana. I have no idea how they can produce this quality of wine, ship it to the United States, and sell it for its current price. — 11 years ago

Hernâni Verdelho

Dona Berta Vinhas Velhas Reserva Branco Rabigato 2009

Full bodied. Need to know more about this native varietal. I think this is at its best right now. 16eur from a shop in Lisbon called Napoleao. They ship to Spain free if you buy a case. — 12 years ago

Few better ways to ring in the weekend than with #champagne. Bereche's winning combo of nutty richness plus currents of bright acidity and stoney minerality = stalwart happy maker. — 11 years ago
