@Andrew Berge how would you compare the la Pitchoune and Spell bottling of Van der Kamp vyd stylistically? Looks like you had then side by side?

They are a different vintage so its not a fair comparison. But essentially i am picking it less ripe than the spell wines, using different and less oak than the spell. The vineyards character still comes through with its savory smoked meat component, it is a bit more floral than the spell.

Second stop in Sonoma with Andrew Berge of Spell Estate, La Pitchoune and Tiny House to name a few. Last red from La Pitchoune is their Black Label VDK from the Van der Kamp Vineyard on Sonoma Mountain. Aged for 12 months in 25% new French oak barrels and then aged for an additional 11 months in 50% new French oak. That is a total of 23 months in French oak and only 48 cases produced.

Deep ruby red with purple core and garnet edges. Rounded and lush nose with dark cherries, raspberries and a little bit of cola. Well balanced and integrated acidity (6.5/10) with a medium plus body. Light spices on the palate like cinnamon and nutmeg followed up by rich raspberries and a bit of gravel in the long finish. Drink till 2030. $$$

G-Lot Chardonnay 2013

Id classify this as a medium body Chardonnay. Has a light citric finish, and holds well with sushi and ceviche. A good wine, but prefer the likes of Jordan 9 yards or Van Der Heyden. — 9 years ago

Prellenkirchen Carnuntum Grüner Veltliner 2009

Aged very well! Very fine burgundian, gruner-influenced nose (ripe papaya, melon, pineapple with some apple and quince, hints of white pepper and perroleum). More Riesling-dominant on the palate with stonefruit and again petroleum. Medium plus bodied with only 12,5% abv, long minerality driven afterhall. — 7 years ago
