Tenuta Il Falchetto Bricco Paradiso Barbera d’Asti Superiore DOCG 2019: Medium-bodied. High acidity. Approachable tannins. Dark fruits. Spice. Oak. Flavorful long finish. Had this wine a few weeks ago at the Slow Wine SF event and I am still talking about it today: The color! The taste! The nose! Such an exceptional wine. Hands down my new favorite Barbera! Great weekend to all! Cheers🍷 — 4 years ago

Haut-Bailly Dinner in SF with Veronique Sanders of Haut-Bailly.

The 2012 is living up to its reviews. It’s good & well priced. The dark fruits are ripe, juicy, cola notes, menthol, dark, moist, turned earth. Drinking nicely now but, still a hold for another 5 years plus.

Served with Coq au Vin. Baby Carrots, Mushrooms, Pearl Onions & Red Wine Sauce. Mathilde French Bistro

Prune nose. Nice dark color. A micro producer. They have trouble now to get grapes as money flows into Burgundy they loose out. Beautiful wine 🍷 could use another 3 years or so. Cherry 🍒 cranberry touch of lemon 🍋 zest and chalk / really well done / this is ‘handmade’. Blows Bize and Pavelot the apparent benchmarks for Savigny out of the water. Amitié wines online has these or Meritage in Encinitas and a bunch of Michelin Star restaurants in SF. You can’t go wrong if you like his traditional style. — 8 years ago

1999 Vina El Pison Rioja. Drank after the ‘85 Lopez de Heredia for A&S’ Anniversary lunch at Coq SF. Didn’t decant very long, but delicious. Much more fruit, tannin, and structure than the Heredia, since much younger. Delicious, but different. — 7 years ago

2013 Vintage. 45% Grenache, 36% Syrah, 18% Mourvèdre, 1% Viognier. 15.4% alcohol. Big, sexy Rhône blend. Tannins have integrated for a silky mouthfeel. Excellent with porcini truffle ravioli with goat cheese and corn sauce. (Variation on this dish at Perbacco in SF) — 8 years ago

Dense and stony, at its apogee and strutting its stuff. Dark black and red berry completely resolved but powerful, concentrated. Some residual tension holding it together beautifully. Long finish of light spice and a hint of nuttiness. Outstanding! Kudos to @Flatiron Wines in SF. — 9 years ago

My fav white of La Paulee SF in 2018 and one of least expensive! Fruit and acid in perfect balance. Lean enough I could drink a bottle in 20 mins 😋 — 8 years ago

I had the Late Harvest Zinfandel (375 ml) which I am not sure is identified correctly here. This is a pretty fragrant bottle Cherries, fresh raspberries and sweet floral aromas hit your nose. On the palate there is a bunch of stuff going on. Red fruit, dark fruit, vanilla and more. This is a sweet dessert wine to me and it goes well with a cigar. — 9 years ago

Didn't bring a red as we weren't planning on drink more than a btl, and that Leroy Monty did the trick, but our palates got hungry for some red, so looked at the half btl list(needed to drive back to SF) and chose this, great vintage and a solid producer. This is in a beautiful place right now, plenty of room for improvement, but complemented dinner just right. — 9 years ago
