They're all pretty special. Nakedness across the board. PN and Syrah may take longer to "appreciate", as they differ substantially from most other CA- wines of named varieties. Go for the cheaper Carignan to begin with! And do let me know what you think!

@gideonbeinstock will assist you directly from the winery; no problem. You wanna add some PN and Syrah to your first order as well! Just le them age for few years before popping one. Close Saron's wines ages magnificently! (Despite low SO2, etc)

Another reason you need to get your ass to San Diego @TheSkip that's a home town brew

Trimbach

Alsace Riesling 2012

A solid and regionally representative Alsace Riesling from a classic producer. Bone dry, mineral, decently high acidity. Loads of wet stone minerality, lemon and orange zest, petrol, plus a smattering of white floral aromas and underripe stone fruit on the nose. The palate is very congruent with how the wine comes across on the nose, but with the addition of green apple, quince and peach skin notes. Super delish with slow cooked pork shoulder with Provencal herbs. Can't wit to try the 2007 Cuvee Frederic Emile I've got waiting for my anniversary with my lovely lady! — 8 years ago
