Stone fruits and minerality on nose. Bracing acids balanced by good structure and lengthy finish. Good foods wine. Gerhard Revere dinner 8/21/16. — 9 years ago

Les Naugues Mercurey 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2003

9.0

Takes red burg to next level. More complex on nose and palate with great balance. More years to go but probably closer to that fruit and secondary flavors peak. Gerhard Revere dinner 8/21/26. — 9 years ago

SweetWater Brewing Company

Hop Hash Infuse Double IPA

This thing really is a topaz brown! The hoary head is bone, and the lacing sporadically amphibian. Automatically, somewhere between a cookie and a muffin. Toffee, dark wheat bread, prominent hops that are of a citrus nature, hemp seed brownies, grape leaves with brown rice. Perfect textural integration upon entry into a caramelly-rye core that influences throughout. There is lemongrass, candied lemon, sweet-ish grapefruit, wild dagga, a stippled licorice, resinous raindrops, spattered cola. Sigmar Polke and Roy Lichternstein's ghosts may have collaborated with a young Gerhard Richter on this one. Call a doctor if spots persist for more than four hours! #hopheads #sweetwater #georgia — 9 years ago

Château Mouton Rothschild

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 2015

9.5

Very cool modern artwork for the new 2015 Chateau Mouton Rothschild label. Chosen by Julien de Beaumarchais de Rothschild who has taken over curation since the Baronesses passing. Designed by German artist Gerhard Richter. For his work, he’ll receive two cases of the 2015 Chateau Mouton Rothschild and a very nice addition to his resume. Score reflex’s Neil Martin’s rating of 95-97. Drink 2027-60. — 7 years ago

9.2

Thought by RC to be dead but really excellent. Probably fruit forward in youth but now nicely resolved and full of earthy secondary notes of dark fruits and minerals and earth. Long finish and fragrant nose of ripe fruits. Gerhard Revere dinner 8/21/26. — 9 years ago

Brigitte & Gerhard Pittnauer

Rosenberg Blaufränkisch 2008

From a time when oak use was a bit more prominent here, the nose is complex but not that Blaufränkisch - oak, spice, earth and blackberries. Palate is clean, lots of fruit, silky flow, oak creaminess but with a little more of the fresh blue and black fruit and a crack of pepper. Pretty long, too. Nicely composed. — 9 years ago

Pinot Noir 2015

Austrian Pinot Noir coming a long way. Lush red fruit supported by good acid. Plush, and you might not think it was Austrian if tasted blind. There is some oak there, needs time to open. — 8 years ago

Leute, trinkt mehr St. Laurent!! Für Pinot-Freunde genau das Richtige. Gerhard Pittnauer aus Gols im Burgenland ist für mich der Großmeister dieser Sorte und außerdem noch einer der spannendsten Menschen die ich kennenlernen durfte. — 8 years ago

Delectus

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2005

Another winner from Gerhard at Delectus, the 2005 is drinking really well. Probably just past peak, this still had loads of fruit as well as classic aromas typical of older CA cabs. Terrific wine from a totally underrated winery! — 9 years ago

Love love love this wine. Made by Gerhard Kraacher. Haven't had it since New York, so plsed to finally find it in CA. Orange chiffon, tiaré, which I think means frangipani, sandy sun-blasted air, and marzipan. Stellar with southern Indian food. Get some. — 10 years ago

Nope - a tiaré is a Tahitian gardenia - wine smells like frangipani too.
