Paired with an honest BBQ w Kansas City style ribs & old college friends. Have had this over the years & while it’s a high ABV wine it carries itself more like a compact Bordeaux. Not oak monster rich, in balance. — 3 years ago

Blackberries, plum, milk chocolate, mild pepper, and minerals.
Cork was a battle! Very little experience with Rosso! Table wine! James Suckling rating 91. I can see potential?

Oh boy. So we’re at Ca’Va in Kansas City and lo and behold they have the 2009 Huet Brut Reserve on the list. Winning. My quick notes: the Huet pours a golden straw color with a slowly dissipating moussé. On the nose: gorgeous fresh brioche, lemon curd, and wet limestone. On the palate, underripe white peach and loads of lemon citrus. High acid yet so beautifully balanced. Laser etched. I want so much more of this in my life! — 3 years ago

Enjoyed this wine over Christmas Eve with a Kansas City Ribeye, a salad and some steakhouse bacon. The time really turned this into a very pleasant wine. The fruits were not as forward as is so many modern and young CdP’s, but you could still get some black fruits, along with some tar, leather and dirt. It began to lose some steam later in the evening, say 2.5-3.0 hours after opening. Mostly what I would want and expect from a 16 year old CdP in a vintage like 2004. — 4 years ago

A chewy fruity Cabernet Sauvignon. Heavy body and lingering finish. Paired perfectly with my steak at the Golden Ox in Kansas City. — 2 years ago

Had this at a small hidden gem of a ramen shop in Kansas City of all places, and it was just such a memorable experience.

I found myself in KC again this past weekend, celebrating my Ma’s birthday and my grandma’s 90th. I asked about the ramen shop, and my cousins told me it closed down this past year.

I was reminded of the sake I had experienced and upon my return to the city, I did a quick search. Only two places in the city held Night Swim by Tozai, one of which was out of stock.

I stopped by after work today at USQ Wines and cleaned them out of their stock ha.

Subtle, balanced, not too pretentious being in a can, tropical fruit notes. No bitterness or overreaching. Just simple, wonderful, smooth sake. — 3 years ago
