“Pineapple, caramel, petrol. Sweetish, perhaps too soft on acids. Creamy. “ Well the acids are there now. Makes for a better balanced. — 4 years ago

Brauneberger Juffer-Sonnenuhr GG Riesling 2017
A wine that shares its name with my dad. Very typical lime and kerosene aromas, a touch mineral. Dry but with a slight initial sweetness on the palate, a bit of spritz and great length. — 3 years ago

Napa Valley; Saint Helena, CA, USA
Final bottle from a mixed case acquired as a part of a Biale wine club shipment in March 2007, ~$46. Incredible deep purple color, sandy+fine sediment. I'm of the opinion that CA Petite Sirah is very similar to Pommard in one aspect, age-ability; these wines seem to live forever and are almost always too young every time. Remembering back to a Stag's Leap Wine Cellars PS (1978) from a while back, proved the longevity of the varietal. I recall a recent post of a Delectable (Conrad Green) cohort with a 1933 Gaunoux Pommard, and he felt it was finally ready... Will this bottle live that long? Unlikely but I'll never be above the ground long enough to find out. Black cherry syrup, blackberry compote, cedar box, blackberry tart, raspberry/cherry jam, fading finish, yet lovely. Hold or drink, likely 2024-30, in proper storage. 2H decant, continuing to unfold. (92-93pts) — 2 years ago

Notes if vanilla, leafy greens and cooked green apples on the nose, with hints of dried mango and a little bit of creme brûlée deep in the fragrance. Leggy, with a medium body and a pale yellow/green color it’s my first experience with Fendant and it’s impressive! The palate is silky and slightly vegetal, with notes of cinnamon apple sauce, maybe fresh leeks even, with a long dry finish with hints of creamy ricotta that pairs beautifully with a sausage, peppers, potato, onion and egg scramble! It’s not a seafood white really, it’s more fit for a veggies, eggs and chicken Alfredo wine. — 6 months ago
