Bicycle Pirate
Littorai
Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir 2018
Dégustation à l’aveugle de 5 pinots. Très frais, un fruité engageant, se boit facilement, un délice sans montrer la complexité des autres. Mon no 4 et un beau pirate pour déjouer le panel qui l’a choisi no 3.

Weingut Josef Leitz
Rüdesheimer Magdalenenkreuz Spätlese Riesling 2016
Sunday night and I have opened the 2016 Josef Leitz Rüdesheimer Magdalenenkreuz Spätlese Riesling from the Rheingau region of Germany.
On the nose there is green apple, lemon/lime, pear, the ever present rubber bicycle tire, honeycomb and jasmine.
On the palate there is the green apple, apricot, pear, lime, petrol, lanolin and a good minerality.
This wine is sweet but in balance, light to medium in body with a smooth oily mouthfeel and medium + acidity which leads right into a medium long fresh fruit finish. I hope everyone's weekend was a joyous one? With the week ahead please stay safe and healthy and before you know it it will be the weekend once again. Nostrovia! 🥂🥂🥂🥂 — 4 years ago

THIS is why I spend a little more to drink Matthew Rorick Forlorn Hope wines. Most are pleasurable; the occasional one is outstanding. This is the latter. — 2 years ago

Bodegas Riojanas
Gran Reserva Viña Albina Tempranillo Blend 2009
Surprisingly I expected this to be tight. But it was ready. In fact a hint of pirate rum on the nose at open which blew off. Perhaps not much left in the tank here. But very pleasant and great with our meal. — 3 years ago
