Granite Heights Winery
Virgina Cabernet Franc 2011
A similar effort to the Glen Manor '11, this 100% CF offering has a sturdy core and vibrant acidity to match dense, dark fruit. The finish is a touch soft and lacks the follow through but it is a decent value at $11 for 375 ML — 9 years ago
Galer Estate Vineyard & Winery
Chester County Albariño 2013
It's been nearly a year since I first tasted this wine, but I immediately remembered why I loved this Albariño as soon as it coated my palate. It's pale straw in color and crisp, screaming summer all the way from the tip to the back of my tongue. I'm almost afraid my words won't do it justice, but there's an immediate impact of stone fruits, lemon, and salty minerality that crash together on the palate like ocean waves at high tide. It was this salty minerality that immediately made me think, "I am drinking the fruit and soil of the Galer Home Vineyard in Chester County." From the winery's tech sheet, it's absolutely the soil - Manor Loam and Glenelg Silt Loam Series - along with gift of former winemaker, Catrina North, that makes this a stellar example of Chester County, Pennsylvania wine. This was a gift from owners Brad and Lele Galer. Available at the winery for $35. http://www.galerestate.com/ — 10 years ago

Brother-in-law came back from china with this bottle. Bold. Fruity nose at the front. Spicy, oak, and pepper. Nice linger. — 9 years ago
Quinta de Covela
Escolha 2013
Tasted at Covela's historic estate—a Renaissance manor that sits frozen in time, poised at the mouth of the Douro Valley, along a southern-facing amphitheater robed in lush greenery. The 2013 Escolha Branco is a blend of Avesso and Chardonnay, with a few years of age, offers perfumy aromas of dried honey and orange blossom. Barrel fermentation lends texture, refinement and creaminess. This is a balanced, poetic wine, bright and fresh with delicate mineral filaments wending in and out of stone fruit. Sample — 9 years ago

Justin Chiotti
Far from an expert in Champagne, but lucky to try this nuanced grower while in the region. From the small village of Avize, and tasted at his manor house called Les Avisés. — 8 years ago
