Weill a Way Vineyard Exposition One Syrah 2012
Even with a four hour decant, this one was so dense. The nose was incredible, lots of purple drank fruits and a hint of meatiness. It was spicy and briary, but kept changing. The palate was still wound up tightly but had a ton of power behind it. Will wait a few more years on the other two in the three pack. — 10 years ago
Butler Nephew and Co
Finest Reserve Port
Nose is all big, jammy fruit. Strawberry preserves, blackberries, and cherries. Palate is in three stages, initial shot of red berries, transitions in to a bright, slightly more tart cherry with just a little dark chocolate and coffee, then a beautiful, sweet grain, molasses, and buckwheat honey finish that goes on and on. Exquisite. — 11 years ago

Fiddlestix Vineyard Pinot Noir 2014
Deep rich and very smooth for three years young. Pepper and fruit flavors in a positively Pinot wine. Could be sipped on its own merit or paired nicely with a rich or spicy meal. Seems like it would age very well. — 9 years ago

Chevalier Bertrand Du Guesclin American Wild Ale 2014
A couple years in the cellar have done this well. Super funky blueberry on the nose, more pure sour fruit on the palate. Definitely more sour than two years ago, and better for it. — 10 years ago

Lukcy Basartd Ale
Love this beer, Stone's Famous lank mark strong ale "Basartd" 17 Adversary, combines all three "Basartd's to make the best of all, big fresh hops, because it is only released fresh once a year, big west coast style, leans more to a double IPA, but rich Carmel malt backbone, just awesome brew, nails the best of all three — 12 years ago

On the nose, nicely concentrated wild dark berries, black plum, notes of blue fruits, vanilla, understated cinnamon, soft, warm spices, Christmas cake and fresh dark, fragrant florals. The mouthfeel is rich & concentrated. The fruits dark are clearly fresh & ripe. Wild dark berries, black plum, plum, dark cherries, poached strawberries, black raspberries, Thompson raisins, light vanilla, soft warm spices, limestone minerals, grainy/silky chalkiness, dark moist soils, crushed rocks, violets, fresh dark florals, touch of mint, beautiful round acidity and amazing long rich beautiful finish that is well balanced fruit & earth. This is a vintage (even though Bourgogne) will cellar around 20 years. My rating could jump 2-3 points with proper storage years in the cellar. It's tasting more like 1st Cru than village wine. Photo tour of the estate, open top fermenters (I believe they ferment all their lots separately) and Lalou Bize-Leroy singing and talking to her precious vines. Producer history and notes...Domaine Leroy is arguably producing the greatest red Burgundy wines in the Cote d`Or at present. Lalou Bize-Leroy started out as a négociant, working for her family's Maison Leroy, which was founded by her father Henri. There are three parts to the Leroy empire; the Maison Leroy based in Auxey-Duresses, Domaine d’Auvenay and substantial holdings in Vosne-Romanée. Lalou Bize-Leroy also owns 25% of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, where she was co-director until the other shareholders ousted her in 1992, partly because she had started a competing winery. Domaine Leroy has been farmed biodynamically from the start and is now certified by ECOCERT. The other exciting, if not controversial, move was the change in training system for the vines. For some time previously the hedging (rognage) of the vineyards had been done by hand rather than more abrasively by machine. However, it is not natural for the vine to be cut back as it affects the vine’s performance both in the current season and the following year. So now, after the flowering, when the shoots are lengthening, they are curled over instead of being cut back. This minimises entrecoeurs and second crop bunches forming, as well as leaving the vine happier and healthier. She also talks and sings to her vines daily. She believes this promotes health of the vines and who could argue with her given what she puts in the bottle. Lalou Bize-Leroy has 23 hectares of vines, mostly Premier and Grand Cru classified. In the vineyard, Lalou practices biodynamism as well as severe pruning and crop-thinning. The result is ridiculously low yields. Yield arguments at DRC were also an issue in her departure. You want to buy this wine. $39.99 at K&L Wine Merchants on pre-arrival. Just bought four bottles.
