Ribbon Ridge Pinot Noir 2015

Very nice. Plenty cherry. Good acidity. Has a real bite quite spicy. Not super complex but good stuff. Lacks secondary flavors but I like it. — 5 years ago

La Vinya del Quintet

Monestir Tarragona Merlot 2012

Out of this world Merlot from Cataluna Spain. Full bodied and bold but also refined. Made by my good friend Jorge Delcos. Hard to find. Worth it. — 9 years ago

Suck a Rock Red Rhône Blend

A little recap from last week. And of course it's gamay and it's lovely. Served at home with strong moldy cheese, local plum jam and Miles Davis best, and second, great quintet LP box.

(flag decoration a tour present from a certain disco dad while on tour in Australia around 2007. Thanks again Mr. It still hangs in the kitchen.)

Boundary Breaks Vineyard

Bubbly No. 356 Dry Riesling 2017

On the Lawn at Tanglewood this evening with the Wynton Marsalis Quintet, with very special guest performance by the Ellis Marsalis Quintet. A very exciting show, this will be the second time we've seen father (Ellis) and son (Wynton) together on these grounds.

A carbonated FLX Riesling, just perfect for today, great style, wish more producers would take this chance and do something fun like this with their wine. Please see my prior notes, still applicable.

24hr Update: Bubbles on the decline, but more of a fresh green apple-y Riesling today, not disappointed at all. 👍

Château Cos d'Estournel

Saint-Estèphe Red Bordeaux Blend 2004

On the flight from Dubai to Singapore . Ch Cos d'Estournel, 2004. Deeper core than the Quintet tasted alongside , less bright rim bordering on garnet , but young I suppose for the age , viscous legs . Classic cigar box , truffle and blackcurrant, cassis notes . Serious , cool vintage character. Lovely fruit on the palate , nice balancing acidity , cassis and darker fruits predominating. Tannins slightly drying , though this seems to be entering mid life they still may resolve . There is a nice quantity of fruit , but this does come across as an 'off vintage' , though I don't particularly like that term. Again elegant and reasonably long finish . An interesting pair of wines , this and the Mount Mary Quintet as it happens . — 7 years ago
