Sorry for the repost but I put a lot of work into that Bo Ssam (7 hours on Green Egg) and just wanted to include a pic. 😆. This wine paired perfectly! Last night’s meal was legit excellent. Wine was wonderful. — 4 years ago

100% Kerner produced from a high altitude, biodynamic vineyard in an off-dry style; a style I typically don’t enjoy. But tonight is not a typical night because our dear friends prepared Bo Ssam for dinner and I figured this might just be an appropriate pairing. Light straw color in the glass. Medium to high viscosity. Honeysuckle, honeydew melon, white flowers, and white peach dazzled the nose. There was the slightest hint of gas, presenting as a light prickly sensation to the tongue however, that quickly dissipated. Apricot, melon, citrus and minerals dance across the palate and each sip begged for another bite of the Bo Ssam...which in turn begged for another sip of the Radoar. I should note that there is great acid here, balancing out the RS to perfection. And while I still don’t prefer this style, I can not deny how lovely this was with such a fine meal. I wouldn’t bat an eye at making this selection again. What a delight! — 5 years ago

Totally unlike the last time I tried it, two years ago. time has done this good- and perhaps some bottle variation is at play here too.

This is sappy and delicious. Herbal character, very pure. Some bo funk. Pinot noir elegance with persistent tannins. — 9 months ago
