J.K.'s Scrumpy Orchard Gate Gold Hard Cider

My favorite cider. A sweeter cider but well balanced and slightly spicy for an overall great flavor profile. Their Saskatoon cider is great if you are looking for something a little sweeter and more unusual. — 10 years ago

Heidi Schröck

Rosé Biscaya Rosé Blend 2014

Heidi Schrock 2014 Rosé Biscaya, Burgenland | 12% | From the warm continental (what they call Pannonian) climate of Neusiedlersee-Huggeland in Burgenland –Austria’s eastern most wine region pressed against the Hungarian frontier, this vintage seems to have dropped the St Laurent of previous vintages and is made of 40% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Pinot Noir although Heidi admits to using eight varieties in all –each in supporting roles. It’s a beautiful rosy red with a fragrant headful of umeboshi pickled plums of Japan for their tension of salty tart fruit and their fragrant shiso perilla leaf lift, but other fruit wafts up bright and fresh. Red currants and white cherries all carry over as well onto the palate –a scrumptious sip of tang and texture, brine and savor –for which it bears that saltwater taffy charm that I love about this rosé –in a watering-at-the-corners-of-the-mouth sort of way. It’s appealing in a way I’d never known before it –like feelings of fervor among inchoate lovers before which everything seemed so certain and after which the world seemed wide. Prepare yourself for a first kiss where red fruit orchards meet the sea. Food? Who needs food? …if I were to dream up a dish for this specifically it might involve a crispy rendered duck breast with a compote of those gamey black currants but you name it: pork chops, schnitzel, tempura, or citrus poached fish of the herring family.

I believe the bulk of this was snapped up by Bachelor Farmer on the restaurant side of things and Solo Vino among the mindful rosé loving bottle shops. I do hope you have a crack at it -it's unlike anything I've tried and deliciously all its own.

Opaque Paso Robles Malbec

This is another wonderful wine from SanAntonio Winery in California. This Opaque 2010 Malbec. The cork was perfect. The color is obviously opaque with a rim of purple. The legs are long and thick. The bouquet is reminiscent of violets and ripe fig tree orchards. The initial palate is blackberry and raspberry, rhubarb pie. The finish is moderately long with a hint of sour apple and butter. There is no dryness and it is rather light in character. A beautiful ending to a beautiful wine!

Medium gold. Aromas more of orchards than fields. With air gaining a hint of tropical notes, pineapple. Distinctly sweeter than expected but residual CO2 saves the day, bless the Stelvin. — 11 years ago

La Cruz Vineyard Dijon Clones Pinot Noir 2011

A very intense pinot! It could be the fact that the orchards are blooming here, but there's a smart hit of orange blossom in this bottle. Thank God it's not watery but still light. Very smooth and bold, not the widest variety of fruit BUT a great flavor I believe I can say I've never tasted in a pinot before. — 11 years ago
