Trout Trilogy Snake River Valley Syrah 2014

Subtle spice/pepper on the nose. Berry fruit with some resinous woody flavor followed by a nice bit of clovey finish that moderates the fruit. Smooth finish. A pleasant drinking wine for the price. — 6 years ago

Enderle & Moll

Spätburgunder Rosé 2014

Essentially orange in color. Great freshness high acidity. Fresh herbs - mostly thyme! Raspberry back palate and a hint of camembert from spontaneous fermentation? A standout Rose as always and one of a kind - can't wait for my case of the 15. Great on its own or with a nice salad perhaps with smoked trout? From Lyle Fass. Also available from some stores in New York. But i think the 14' might be gone. — 7 years ago

Dark berry fruit blueberry blackberry coulis very intense with smoky toasty oak notes from an old Malbec vineyard on red mountain espresso and dark chocolate. A big wine with lots of dark berry fruit velvety tannins, a complete wine from the center out on the tongue pretty violet and lavender notes big but elegant and fresh at the end. Most excellent + — 10 years ago

My first 100% Bianchetta, which is typically used as a blending grape in Liguria. Full bodied and waxy. Great texture that really grabbed me. Crisp and saline. Like a Muscadet on steroids. Perfect with steelhead trout. — 7 years ago

Brut Cuvée des 6 Cépages Champagne Blend 2007

Deep but bright orangey gold. Not much mousse to speak of, though that's likely a product of age (and less-than-desirable state store storage conditions). Likewise the somewhat weak bubbles. Biscuity quince and white stone fruit on the nose and palate. Still a firm backbone of acidity though, and that made it a great pair with "nouveau European" fare (trout almondine, fusilli carbonara). Would love to try it upon release. — 7 years ago

Crisp and pretty dry, kind of funky but doesn't linger. "Clean crisp finish, mineralogy on the nose"- Charles. Had at erbaluce with sauteed wild lake trout, kind of overpowers the trout, which is very delicately fishy, not much other flavor discernable to me — 7 years ago

Fresh trout on the hibachi and the best of Bouzy Rose! Composed of 70% Chardonnay, 30% Pinot Noir, with Bouzy Rouge from a tiny Clos within the courtyard of the family home. This is rose for the graduate; dry, mineral and haunted by incredibly delicate and nuanced red fruit. — 9 years ago
