Rich aroma with dry taste. I am enjoying, and price was reasonable. — 8 years ago

St. Antony

Niersteiner Orbel Riesling 2015

Hipping is exotically fruity, with some leesy reduction at this juncture; Pettenthal is the oddball, aged in barrique to draw out citrus fruit and roundness from a tight, mineral wine; Orbel is the complete package, a tannic and racy white showing equal parts fruit, floral, and Roterhang minerality. An interesting common thread through these wines is a distinctive herbal/spice character, which reminded me of a funky Belgian witbier or tripel, presumably attributable to ambient yeast populations and soil expression. — 9 years ago

Labouré-Roi

Gevrey-Chambertin Pinot Noir 1983

In phenomenal shape. Minimal ullage at <2cm and great depth of colour. Nose of black plumbs, morello cherries, blackberries, and lightly peppery coeur de beuf tomatoes with a layer of freshly dug black farm soil underpinning the fruit. Still tannic, though it's well integrated, and a poised thread of vibrant acidity running thorough the palate.

Fantastic for a village level wine!

Matthiasson Vineyard Ribolla Gialla 2012

The 2012 Matthiasson Ribolla Gialla is deep gold, the sort of intense, primary Cadmium yellow that is a common thread in Henri Mattisse paintings. It's slightly hazy too, from prolonged fermentation on the skins and stems, with concentrated notes of Bosc pear, preserved lemon and a touch of bitter almond. In the mouth, there is ample concentration and a bit more structure than expected, the finish shows a streak of chalky minerality and a pleasant savory character. 12.8% ABV — 10 years ago

This has knit together nicely, with a core of acidity holding it all together. Fun, and a slam dunk pairing for smoked brisket. — 11 years ago

Domaine Bzikot

Bourgogne Blanc Chardonnay 2015

A great value, if there ever was, from Burgundy. Not flabby, showing a lovely thread of acidity, apple flavors and aromas, lemony, with a touch of minerality. Yummy. — 8 years ago

Maison Ilan

Les Chaffots Morey St. Denis 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2011

I was going to wait to open this but the negative commentary thread on the wine berserkers forum lead me to open this bottle. The wine was excellent it was well balanced: freshness fruit and acidity. Most of the negative comments are from individuals not receiving their wines in a timely manner but the negativity seems have found its way into the reviews. Based on my experience with this particular wine the quality is high. I hope Ray Walker solves his distribution problems (as it this writing his website was not operational). — 9 years ago

Finger Lakes Semi-Dry Riesling 2014

An easy to drink dry Riesling with a smooth finish. Well balanced light citrus notes with a hint of kiwi and lychee. More on the sweeter side of dry Riesling, but not a sweet Riesling. Loved it. — 9 years ago

Randolph O'Neill Vineyard Riesling 2014

Pear-citrus on the nose. Lemon grass, mild acid, nice minerality @the beginning of the bottle. But - Wow this mellows with some time. Palmelo on the nose. Smooth pear with a little citrus, a little sweetness. Love this one! (Chicken curry w/ rice) — 10 years ago
