An absolute delight. This wine is incredible-- everything a grand cru Bordeaux has for a third the price. — 3 months ago

Venezia Giulia Ribolla Gialla

Wine Mouth Tues.

Ribolla Gialla from the Oslavia and Hum vineyards, vines aged 18 to 40 years, planted at 180–220 m, facing south and south east on ponca (opoka/flysch) soils. Harvested by hand first 10 days of October. Two to four months of maceration on the skins and aged four years in oak barrels (30 hl) then two years in bottle. TA 6 g/l, pH 3.7. According to Alex Simčič, 2012 was a warm year, less dry than 2011. Saša Radikon explained that you have to reduce production to get complete ripeness for this length of skin contact. Started green harvest early July, reducing the crop by up to 50% in 2018, for example.
Deep orangey gold. Amber bright. Fabulous aroma – so intense. Orange, Seville orange marmalade (but not sweet), ginger, dried grasses, reduced apricots, spice. Deep and chewy and fresh on the palate. Amazing intensity of spiced, dried orange peel. A contrast between bitter/sour fruit sweetness and the sour, salty complexity. Orange-infused tea. Firmly tannic but so well balanced by the fruit. The flavour lasts forever and it is so utterly mouth-watering. Juicy, salty finish even in a tannic wine and then all that lovely apricot-ripe sweetness even though it is dry. (JH) JR18, 2012

Marjan Red Dry 2020

Очень вкусное вино!! Кислотность сбалансирована внизу, вкус насыщенный, на предвкусии - чувствуется сложный купаж, нотки кожи, табака и чернослива. Полнотелое именно в этом винтаже. 2020г.. Терпкость слабая.. — 4 months ago

Goriška Brda Pinot Noir 2017

Looks like the other members of the Tucson wine triumvirate have been missing my presence here on Delectable so I figured I’d give them some Sunday content. Very Chambolle-esque and pretty. Ethereal w/ punchy sour red cherry with wet forest floor. Great stuff. — 3 years ago

Opoka Sauvignon Blanc 2017

Two part review!
1. BF that knows about wine: Great.
2. Me that knows nothing: Good. Paired with “What We Do in the Shadows” and homemade branzino and scallops. Unmemorable but nice for this night.

9.1

This was great. Crystal clean, vibrant and intense. Stone fruit and white flowers on the nose. Palate is grippy, this wine is exciting and energetic, with a squeeze of lemon chasing the stone fruit palate. A touch of bitterness on the finish and great acidity. Serious wine. Quite young, Impressive. — 4 years ago
