There is really only one grape variety that I know of in the world that deserves to always have an exclamation mark: Juhfark! Or as I like to shout, Juhfaaaaaaaark! (pronounced you-fark). Grown only on the tiny little hill of Somló, an ancient underwater volcano, in Southwestern Hungary, it is among my favorite grape varieties and simply one of the world’s coolest wines. @sap_somlo is one of the best producers of it, coaxing out its bee pollen and chamomile scents and electric neon lemon, citrus peel, and yellow herb flavors, all layered on top of the deep volcanic minerality. The longer you let these wines age, the more they taste like rocks. Tired of the same old flavors in your white wines? Get thee some Juhfark! — 3 years ago
2018 vintage for 9.99 USD via Jungle Jim's in Cincinnati, OH. Zesty, lingering acidity with a creamy finish. Lots of pineapple, guava, peach, grass, and flint. Lovely cheap n cheerful SB. — 5 years ago
Lovely, smoky, mushroom-funk with ethereal violet perfume emanating from lemon madeleines. Perfect expression of cassis and blackberries and black cherry, touches of sweet tobacco reveal a jungle of verdant herbs. Amazing cab franc with the full spectrum of textures.

This is only my second bottle of Tannat ever. Hated the first. It was ugly and funky in the wrong way. This is, however, ugly and funky in the right way. If the light hits it right, it’s almost a neon purple. The kind of neon you would find in the sign of your favorite dive bar. That favorite dive bar is pungent and almost offensive on the inside, but you keep going back. Where else are you going to go? I am a convert. — 4 years ago
We had this one at End Dive restaurant in Victoria, BC. This is a winner. A varietal that I normally associate with precise, medium-bodied, simple patio wine is very different here... As a pét-nat this is fuzzy and fun... Lighter colored, and a great accompaniment to our salmon belly dinner. — 3 months ago
“Four” is a single-vintage blend of the most exciting barrels of Chardonnay from Liquid Farm’s vineyards. Popped and poured; enjoyed with friends over the course of an hour or so. The 2017 pours a striking, intensely bright golden color. I’m not sure I have seen anything quite like it before. It’s nearly neon. On the nose, the wine is redolent ripe and tart tropical fruits: starfruit and pineapple along with lemons, green apple, butter, gentle baking spices (this does see extended time in a small percentage of new oak). On the palate, the wine is dry with what I perceive to be high acid. It’s awesome. Confirming the notes form the nose, the finish is long with good minerality. This is titillating wine that hooks you from sight to nose to palate and it’s the latter that drives it home with the remarkable acid to match the fruit. About as good as any New World Chardonnay I’ve ever had. Drink now through 2039. — 8 months ago
