Pithos Rosso Vittoria Nero d'Avola Frappato 2014

Through a veil of transparent berry fruit and delicate dried flowers the secondaries become the primaries: damp earth, mushroom tea, tomato leaves. Fine acidic structure. — 10 years ago

Château Châlon light. Powerfull on the sous voile characteristics (curry, nuts and cheese, it has been aged under a veil for 2,5years) but surprisingly easy and light on the palate. Wine of great finesse! Wonderful. Big part of the cuvée is made out of Chardonnay. It was hard to get my hands on one, but it was worth the wait. Thanks @Jiri Brandt for swapping a bottle. — 10 years ago

Ravenswood Winery

Cooke Sonoma Valley Zinfandel 1990

1990 Cooke Vineyard. Peat and blackberry and French plum make the initial assault on your palate. Continues through the Flavors with integrated earthiness and black stone fruit with loads of depth and still a veil of tannins to provide structure. — 10 years ago

Coteaux du Languedoc Syrah-Grenache Rosé 2014

A bit edgy and green upon opening but more wow with some air. Petrichor and savory herb aromatic, veil of red fruit wrapped around salt and stone in the teeth. — 10 years ago

Awesome. Savagnin sous voile (gently oxidised under a yeast veil) is the world’s most distinctive wine (barring sherry). Gr8 value too. — 11 years ago

Niederösterreich Rosé Blend 2015

9.0

One of the best $10 & under rosés on the market. Nose is subdued and approachable, showing red berries and a veil of minerality. With a slight effervescence and a touch of RS, this reminds me of fresh raspberry lemonade on a hot day. Accompanied with great mouthfeel and youthful acidity, this is rosé far outshines it's price tag. — 9 years ago

Chavignol L'Authentique Sancerre Rouge Pinot Noir 2014

Classic Sancerre PN, meaning the fruit takes a back seat to the intense minerality sucked out of the limestone soil. Mostly uber-clean chalky minerality on the nose with a veil of pure cherry/strawberry fruit. Very refreshing and food-flexible. — 10 years ago

Rivers-Marie

Sonoma Coast Chardonnay

Where is that place where richness and precision collide? Where barely ripe tropical fruits flirt with a lacy veil of mineral sensation and just a tickle of late summer roll in the hay gets caught in my hair...That place? Oh, it's the Sonoma Coast squeezed and bottled with the Rivers-Marie label. — 10 years ago

Very pleasant nose full of red fruit and spice. Tart cranberry dominates with cherry, black tea leaves, and black pepper shining through. Palate shows elegance and earth. Soft velvety tannins and a firm veil of acidity, the finish is long lasting. Excellent Pinot, although still a little pricey for what you get. — 9 years ago

Viña Bosconia Reserva Rioja Tempranillo Blend 1964

Very much alive after 50+ years with aromas reminiscent of cherries, dried plums, licorice, orange peel, cedar akin to an old wooden cabinet, old leather, tobacco, earthiness, minute hints of celery and fennel, a slight veil of oxidation that adds to a slightly spicy beef broth undertone. Amazing dense oily texture to the wine but it still remains quite light, sour red fruit flavors as it enters the mouth with some blackberries, the midpalate reveals some savory beef broth notes mixed with balsamic notes that continue on to the long lasting spicy finish with discrete creamy notes. — 10 years ago
