Vintage 2001 | Beautiful developed and great intensity. Apricot, honey, botytris in smell. Balanced sweet. Such wines will outlive me. First time we tried Sauternes with oysters. It works.

Vintage 2020 | Modern marketing name and label. The Spanish can do magic with monastrell (= mourverdre). Unbelievable stubborn when popped and poured, beautiful smell. Given 24 hours aeration it develops lovely: smooth taste, glorious fruit. I selected it to pair Indonesian food, which is difficult for matching. It works. — 5 days ago

Vintage 2021 | Ventiventi Lambrusco Rosato dell’Emilia | Frizzanto secco | Bio wine | confession: I would never buy a wine with such a childish colorful label. It was recommended to me. So I bought it. Big surprise! It is an elegant, vibrant, refined sparkle. I love it. A very different Sunday bubbly. — 8 days ago

Vintage 2023 | I admit at the oyster pits in Yerseke Zeeland each wine combined with oysters grows to almost genius. Much citrus, saline, just perfect for lunch | at Pekaar Yerseke — 8 days ago
