Russian River Valley Pinot Noir 2018

Still super young. Literally still tingling on the tongue.
Strong fruit nose with long aftertaste. Leave it in the glass for a while or decant for an hour.
This is not a delicate or light Pinot. It's full bodied and has lots of dark fruit with a lot of oak
Just need several more years to develop, i think

Windward Vineyard

Paso Robles Pinot Noir

A-ma-zing. So smokey and peppery on the nose, the taste completely back it up. With bold and bright red cherry, oak and pepper on the back of the tongue. It sits and grows in flavor. The body really keeps giving. — 3 years ago

Château Léoville-Las Cases

Grand Vin de Leoville du Marquis de las Cases Saint-Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 2006

I guess I’m drinking this too soon! Need to better manage the cellar… tremendous fruit on the nose as I decanted that became more vegetal with time. Bright and leathery on the tongue, rich and luscious in the mouth. Strong tannins — easy to see how others are enjoying it at twice the age. — 3 months ago

Terra d'Uro

La Enfermera Toro Tempranillo 2021

Earthy taste on the back of the tongue, long lasting, low acidity. For a medium bodied red, it went well with chicken in a light mushroom sauce. — 7 months ago

Lilbert-Fils

Perle Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs Brut Champagne Chardonnay

Low production. Exceedingly high quality. Produced with lower pressure but results in much, much joy. A light golden robe with not many bubbles due to the low pressure. Very creamy however. In that good way. Quite mineral on the nose with an abundance of floral scents. Croissants and orange peel with a schmear of honey. Those citrus aromas really start to take over after time in the glass.

Pure Grand Cru Chardonnay from Cramant in the Côte des Blancs. Consisting of 35/65 of the 2014 and 2015 vintages and disgorged in 2020 with an Extra Brut dosage of 3 g/l. This is one of those non vintage bottles that makes you reconsider not aging them. It’s so clear that this will continue to grow and blossom and be even more stunning a few years down the road.

Subtle and soft with high acid. Saline precision and tension for days. So generous on the palate even at this youthful point in its journey. Fresh citrus fruits tickle the tongue while herbs hold your attention. Long finish with a bite of spice. Will be excellent if you have patience and hold. Or you could be like me and drink now.

Magnus Niederhäuser Hermannshöhle Trocken Riesling 2021

Big boy MAGNUS big like a freakin' baseball bat. Big like 13% ABV and 1,000 volts of electricity in silvery gray green shades. Hovers indecisively for a second, then settles into intense sour citrus.

Delicate soft aromas of grapefruit, lime leaf and sage become crazy intense with tip of tongue acid, thick edges that suck your cheeks in tight.

Abbaye de Saint Bon Chien 2019

BFM = Brasserie Franches Montagne. This is the Flanders Red Ale. A sour ale.

Possibly the best beer I have ever had?
The nose is dried red apple + dried guava +
Tart fruit on the tongue with a finish of sweet malt and tart cherry juice.
A wonderful acid finish that to me is reminiscent of what you might find in a
