Le Terroir Assemblage Grand Cru Pinot Noir - Champagne Blend 2023
1.6g dosage, degorgement 03/2023. From Verzy. This is ridiculous juicy and addicting. Quite golden in color. Fine bubbles. Fruity, apple driven and quite bit of raspberry! Delicious 🤤. And for 75$ a crazy deal for a GG. Tasted with Jason the Importer. Amitie Wines. — 11 days ago

Schäfer-Fröhlich
Felseneck GG Riesling 2023
85$/12.5%. Sadly 85$. I met Tim Fröhlich (aka Tim ‘Cheerful’) ca. 15 years??? ago at ‘La République’ in LA - now a restaurant - in what used to be the house of Charlie Chaplin. It was a major Riesling tasting with the late Rudi Wiest. Anyways ever since I have been a mega fan. White peach, white flowers on the nose. Smokey and wild in the glass. Yeasty. Hint sweetness nicely balanced with acidity. Stonefruit, white peach, yellow peach, hint sour mandarine, elderberry. Incredible minerality - bursting with freshness and vitality and Fröhlichness - its good to be alive! — 12 days ago
Enderle & Moll
Buntsandstein Ida Pinot Noir 2015
Very close to perfection. See previous notes but this also has Iodine (As a chemist i am well familiar with that note). Unspitable. In the top 1%. See my previous notes. Pinot does not get better than this a perfect expression of the site north of Freiburg on the slopes of the black forest. — 13 days ago

Peay Vineyards
Savoy Vineyard Pinot Noir 2022
Dark cherry & Prune plum. Comes across as quite big and rich despite just 13.9%. Super juicy and drinkable. Black tea leaves, grippy with a bite, well managed tannins. More of a red meat than a white meat Pinot. Would do well even with a Burger. Not my style (for this it has a little too much fruit) but really well put together! A couple of years in the cellar would make it even better - or drink now. — 9 hours ago
Pinotman /// Andreas
97P WS, Whopping 15.5%. At the edge of where natural yeast dies. May be they used designer yeast? Anyways this is actually pretty good. Enormously complex with a bazillion interesting flavors including Eucalyptus. Picked this up for a tasting (I am hosting) it will be a mega hit. Folks will love this in your face flavor hammer. Isn’t it nice what a classicist is doing for his friends? — 8 hours ago
