Belated notes on New Year’s Eve! Allison Oli wedding celebration dinner 10-7-24 Water Witch Club, “Uncle Jimmy” wine tasting table with vertical of Riesling and world tour of Pinot Noir. Third stop on world tour, more into the lusher California style with richer red fruits and floral notes even at this age but a bit more sense of heat. Quite a few liked this. Also no surprise. — 2 years ago

Belated notes on New Year’s Eve! Allison Oli wedding celebration dinner 10-7-24 Water Witch Club, “Uncle Jimmy” wine tasting table with vertical of Riesling and world tour of Pinot Noir. The Riesling vertical goes from 2009-2014 for three vintages. All three wines are pure Riesling excellence. Found out t Mosel Fine Wine newsletter rates this as the most underprepared and undervalued wine in the region. — 3 years ago

Saumur Chenin Blanc 2016

Damp earth, chesnut, witch hazel, spring flowers, spring greens, crisp pear, lemon peel, quinche, salted ham, flint, green tea. A riot of acid and waxy chenin richness, impeccable balance. First time getting this wine in the glass with some bottle age 😍 — 6 years ago

Russian River Valley Pinot Noir 2010

Out standing wine with plenty of dark cherry notes and some subtle but ever present tannins witch took me to the Pacific Northwest at first - the 14% alcohol was well hidden — 8 years ago

Belated notes on New Year’s Eve! Allison Oli wedding celebration dinner 10-7-24 Water Witch Club, “Uncle Jimmy” wine tasting table with vertical of Riesling and world tour of Pinot Noir. This leads off the world tour, lean and angular, full of sharp angles and austere yet enticing character. Not so popular, as expected, except for Allison’s friend who I only met at the end of the night. — 3 years ago

Belated notes on New Year’s Eve! Allison Oli wedding celebration dinner 10-7-24 Water Witch Club, “Uncle Jimmy” wine tasting table with vertical of Riesling and world tour of Pinot Noir. This is the last stop on tour and the highlight, Double Magnum bottle with top receding to well above neck but in great shape! Phew! All the other offerings used up one bottle but this four bottle equivalent was totally gone , many skipped the other wines and went to the big boy out of curiosity. 25 years, Ben M birth year! Beautiful nose of overripe and fading red berries and fruits with fall leaves weaving in and out, hints of mushrooms, damp earth. Still lively on palate and long mellow finish. Unique experience. Highlight of the evening, talk of the town. — 3 years ago

Domaine Michel Lafarge

Beaune-Grèves 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2011

Rustic, earthy, succulent but never clumsy or overbearing. This has soul and that distinct “nourishing” character one finds in the great traditional wines of the world. Muddled cherry, wet leaves, damp forest, ceps, juniper, witch hazel, wilted flowers, beets, warm spice. — 6 years ago

Marchesi de' Frescobaldi

Castelgiocondo Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2013

Deep red colour.
Medium tanins and nice finish on the palate.
A reake good wine for delicate meet.

RSM Vineyard Pinot Noir 2017

Rich n fresh, fresh n rich. It is itself. It does not care. If it wants to wear a necklace of bordering-on-dried-cherries plus vanilla shirt with a cola-infused-with-herbs skirt palate let it do its thing. That is its style, bewitching to be sure, but I’m a semi-retired witch (haven’t entirely let go of my time as a Wiccan) I’m for it. — 5 years ago
