Cà de’ Rocchi (Tinazzi)

Tenuta Valleselle Aurum Amarone della Valpolicella Classico 2021

Dry, smooth, full bodied wine. This wine was perfect alone, though would be perfectly paired with a red meat. I purchased this wine at Costco of all places typically about 30.00 but got it for a steal at 20.00! It’s fabulous  — a month ago

In stunning form for dinner at Selby’s after the quasi 50th anniversary of the 1976 Judgement of Paris Tasting. It was the Stag’s Leap 1973 that won amongst the reds. — 7 months ago

La Geynale Cornas Syrah 2016

Beautiful wine. Feeling suspended in time. Lots of energy, deepness and Sicily complexity. The fruit is now overtaken by the spiciness so it may need more air or more time to evolve in bottle. Can still improve. — 2 months ago

Les Côtes Saint-Joseph Syrah 2022

Last bottle of a summer dinner- no decant. 2nd tasting of this vintage & much more expressive than the first. Throws Brett a decent amount & imagine some might prefer a substantial decant, though I like the funkiness. Fine toothed &a lovely grainy, slightly chewy texture & rather elegant; cassis, black currant, smoked beef jerky, & black cherry on palate & nose. Not complex at this stage but who needs it given the enjoyment factor. Post meal ( or probably blended into the end) of grilled BBQ chicken, French lentilsw labneh, & local tomato salad. There goes summer… — 5 months ago

Diane de Belgrave

Haut-Médoc Red Bordeaux Blend 2015

Final meal in Paris. I had read about Anthony Bourdain liking this place because of its simplicity and perfectly cooked meat. (Apparently one of his favorites in Paris). Great meal to close our week in Paris, especially if you like fire grilled meat as much as we do.

The Diane de Belgrade was a textbook Bordeaux. I liked it even more after a bit of time in the glass. This wine is also a reminder that even simple bottles can be amazing. @Robert et Louise in Le Marais.

As you should! A well executed steak grabs your mind and doesn't let go until you find the next best version.
