Love and Squalor

Willamette Valley Pinot Noir

Today's selection for contemplating hurricane Irma's arrival Sunday here in Melbourne, FL. Fine cherry character, almost jammy, tamped down by a slight petrol undertone. Light, yet acidic, mouthfeel, lingers for many minutes. Probably passed by this winery in McMinnville, OR during a visit years ago to see small boutique wineries and the spruce goose. Wished I had seen it, even though this is a multi-vineyard multi-appellation blend. Worth a spin, especially at the price, if you can get a bottle out of the 1100 cases produced. — 8 years ago

St. Émilion Grand Cru Red Bordeaux Blend 2004

Wonderfully balanced red Bordeaux. Cardamom on the nose(?). Dry and "cinnamony", up front before the red fruit appears. Finish was pleasant, without a long tail. And this was by the glass...bravo to the Som! — 10 years ago

Tail Feathers Rogue Valley Viognier Muscat Riesling 2016

Wait, what? Southern Oregon...where’s that, and how did they come to make such amazing white wines? The sock puppet has questions. Voluptuous density with amazing balance of floral, spice, and tropical fruit notes. Gonna have to look into this Muscat thing... — 8 years ago

Obscure Red Varietal Series Martini Family Vineyard Blaufränkisch 2010

After only a few sips I'm entranced. Subdued smokey fruit, a bit of minerality and great acid, mild tannins. This is a well crafted wine. Will definitely get more of this. Excellent. — 12 years ago

Ampeleia

Kepos Grenache Blend

Reminiscent of Beaujolais' Gamay, this southern part of Tuscany's Ampeleia is producing some fine red wine! Mine tonight, after 30 minutes swim and spin in the decanter's pool of naked open space and air shows first to the nose wet rocks, slate and sandstone freshly accenting menthol and anise then strictly earthen dirt and minerals and a hint of the berries. First kiss is lightly but intriguingly nasty, wet and dripping red fruit which immediately coats and clings but most interestingly reaches back for the wet rocks overlooking the Med, then re-engages just in time to leave hints of her red and blue berry essence complimenting the blackened octopus in a mash of white beans and spices laced with a hint of Tabasco offered up by Chapel Hill's Il Palio located off Franklin Street (checkout both) Ciao🕶 — 10 years ago
