Sherry Lehman Selections

Lunarossa

Quartara Giffoni Valle Piana Colli di Salerno Fiano 2018

Crazy nose. Hints of dried apricots. Yellow flowers. Rich. Deep.

Palate is stunning. Elegantly rich. Dried apricots. Mineral. Saturating. Salty a bit. Silky. Hints of honey. Some glycerol.

Long finish.

Really a unique wine. Almost hints of very good sherry notes but in a good way.

This is a wine you want a case of in the cellar.

Wow. Nose is like sticking your schnozz in a bee hive. Honeyed floral.

Palate is Super honeyed. Rich. A hint of sherry so drink now if you have it.

Nose so good you wish your lungs had an exit so you could inhale nonstop.

Palate. Dense. Almost sticky. Unctuous. Great fruit. Sweet fruit. Almost tropical. Honey. Clings to the palate. Very well made.

At 3 hours almost like this sherry like butteriness. Not oxidized but the controlled richness. Becoming godlike epic level insane.

Nose is nutty

Roccia Rossa

Metodo Classico Brut Nebbiolo Rosé

What a crazy awesome bottle of wine. Amber in Color.

Nose is copper and yeast. Hint of confectionary sugar. A whole bunch of something I can’t identify.

Palate is controlled richness. Some orange peel. Maybe some sherry. Pomelo rind. Juicy.

One of the most unique sparklers I’ve ever had. This is a graduate level course.

Côtes du Jura Chardonnay 2016

An interesting wine. Very rich. But not in a stupid way. Nose has some lovely iodine. Palate has that lovely intense richness but also some acid and mineral in the background. Finish is nice and stings a bit from the acid mineral combo. Maybe some sherry-like notes. This has the delicious factor so I’d drink it on a regular basis (if I had the luxury of doing that) but it’s also just off the median point enough to make it a change of pace wine. Bought from Fass Selections. ... yummy nut paste on the finish. — 6 years ago

Domaine Grosbot-Barbara

Les Maltôtes Ipp13 Chardonnay Tressallier 2019

Nose is psychotic. This controlled richness. Almost round in a perfect sphere way. Almost a hint of sherry without the oxidative notes. Hard to describe. It’s own category.

Nose is more l33t after 45 minutes. You get this high end burgundy complexity compete / complex / craziness.

Palate is elegantly delicious. Nice minerality. Juicy. Delicious. Elegant.

More meursaulty than the 18 which was better / more interesting. Still quite amazing.

As this opens it gets more “high class”. Decant for 30 and drink over 30.

Long finish.
