Karia Napa Valley Chardonnay 2022
An interesting Chard sourced from multiple sourcing in Napa Valley; Atlas Peak, Carneros, Coombsville and Oak Knoll, which makes a great integration and translating to your sense and palate a mild-intense style. However; this wine spent around 9 months with sur lies on wood barrels. Complex enough to pause and do multiple sips to appreciate it. Floral and white peach on the nose, the oaky notes are a bit too palpable from the very beginning. Nice acidity and intense mouthfeel with spices and vanilla combined. — 13 days ago
Tolpuddle Vineyard
Tasmania Chardonnay 2021
Broadening my horizons and so very glad I did. Echos of burgundy but all it’s own at the same time. A wine that makes you pause and think. — a year ago

Fleurie Gamay 2019
Notes are cumbersome, so no notes today but plus side, scores are honest and I should be a professional reviewer, LOL. (This wine was crazy, one of the best Gamay I've had...)
On the Lawn at Tanglewood this final afternoon with the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Our guest conductor Michael Tilson Thomas is leading IVES (Psalm 90) and BEETHOVEN (Symphony No. 9 in D minor, Opus 125).
After a two-year pause, we arrive again to the day when Beethoven concludes on these hallowed grounds. The 9th by Beethoven is always bittersweet for us, as it marks the end of the official Symphony and Pops season for the BSO at their Summer home. It is a wonderful and singularly emotive piece moved with the full force of the Tanglewood Festival Chorus (110+) conveying the message of a divine spark of joy that makes all people one. The music and the day almost bring me to tears on an annual basis...

Château Marquis de Terme
Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 2009
A stained cork from bottom to top gave me pause. Phew! All good. Dusty notes dominate early on with stewed plumbs and Aussie scrub (underbrush) not far behind. Let’s see where we are in an hour. Sixty minutes on firmly delivers with a weighty 65% Cab Sauv with, dare I say it, a slight nod to Napa. Chewy tannins with continuous dust rounds it all out. I like this wine. As to down the road…I think we’ve arrived au point. — 2 years ago

Brut Rosé Grand Cru Champagne
Tidying up the house after the container with our belongings arrived; it took "only" 3 and half months😅😅.
A well deserved refreshing juice during a pause
It is going to be a looong week of sweet unpacking..a bit like a belated Xmas😁😁
BTW the juice was really good

They say 6 of every 10 Michelin star restaurants in Spain carry wine by this producer. Can’t really confirm that, but I can tell you: it doesn’t just sit in your glass; it transports you. This isn’t a wine for sipping in sterile silence. It’s for spilling on a sun-drenched table, between bites of pulpo a la gallega and the laughter of people who know how to live. It’s Galicia in liquid form—wild, rugged, and unapologetically itself.
There’s a sharp, bracing acidity that wakes you up like a cold Atlantic plunge. Then come the flavors: lemon zest, green apple, and maybe a hint of peach that’s just ripe enough to make you pause. Underneath it all, there’s that minerality—like licking a rock (the good kind). It’s clean, it’s crisp, and it doesn’t overstay its welcome.
