Nice! Always a fun crack with an older PY. No noticeable alc in a 05 Genevrieres had last...but did note some edgy oak spice, as well as the vintage richness. But with every sip it polished itself up nicely like a river stone!

4 x 1994 Beringer Alluvium $20 per! HOPE this beauty is still kickin as I’ve had some amazing experiences with this wine!

Just can't do it...no will power...6 pack gone already! Will have to rely on picking up $ome older Cotat at auction or retail if I ever want to experience one with some age on it, as I just can't help myself drinking them! Another 14 drinking AMAZING right now! https://oi909.photobucket.com/albums/a...

Awesome set! Happy bday! Had a 04 Coche CC that showed huge reduction...classic Coche...any spearmint in the Ramonet??? Yummm wines!!!Congrats!!!

Cfu Krugsicles!!

So...over under retail for the pack...$4.5k?

Just noticed that someone is attempting to auction off a single bottle of 2007 Gonon St Joe for $750 on the K&L site. [wow.gif] Zero bidders as I write. They also have 2017 pre-arrivals for $130 per bottle. Cheers! It’s the VV You can pick up a 7 pack here...https://www.winebid.com/BuyWine/Items/Do...

2008 Francois Cotat Les Culs de Beaujeu

2016 Ridge Lytton Springs...bunches @$27!
Was that you on the Cotat at Winebid? The 2008 is a phenomenal wine.

I've been loving recent vintages...want to try some with a little age. Looking forward to it!

I'll wait till Costco has it.

Brian, have you tried her Vernaccia Carato? That is her oak-aged bottling, and a totally different animal than the Fiore. I like both, but the Fiore is one I can drink out on the deck, whereas the Carato is a wine that demands your attention - something similar to one of Tissot's Chards from the Ju...

2017 Montenidoli Vernaccia di San Gimignano Fiore - Italy, Tuscany, San Gimignano, Vernaccia di San Gimignano (6/27/2019) This is such a unique wine...has an almost oily texture, rich and dense with mineral structure...yet bright and tingly citrus acidity...fresh and alive, full of character. Pure ...

June 10 - Boyer-Martenot Visit Vincent was a gracious host. The domaine that I was not familiar with. The wines were solid. I asked for a favor to buy the 14 Perrieres but it was not available. Vincent kindly gifted the 15 Perrieres. The wines were pure, no matchstick/sulphur for those who love it....

I thought this pic was cool from Acorn Winery...

What’s your fav field blend wines...the ones commingled in the vineyard not at the winery? Geyserville is definitely a benchmark...love what Turley does with Casa Nuestra...plenty from Bedrock... the more ancient and gnarly the better! Name some?

Intrigued to try this...with Ultramarine as a benchmark!

2015 Caves Duplessis Chablis 1er Cru Montée de Tonnerre - France, Burgundy, Chablis, Chablis 1er Cru (6/25/2019) MAN this is a bad bottle! Opened last night, and it was SO disjointed, angry with sharp acid, rubbing alc fumes, and chemically? Thought maybe it was my palate? So I corked it up, and op...

2008 Domaine Bertheau (Pierre et François) Chambolle-Musigny - France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Chambolle-Musigny (6/22/2019) Been awhile since I've checked in on this one...showing a little muddled cranberry in color...still brightness on the nose...dried roses, crancherry, tilled strawberry field...

35mil seems cheap? Roy Piper wine SURE would look good coming out of there...just sayin!

These wines are everything you describe and more. Awesome in every way, aroma, flavor, structure and texture. This post below was from the recent tasting of Valentini, Pepe and Torre Dei Beati wines. What a great tasting. https://wineberserkers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=159971 Tom Would have lo...

I love them as well...buy all offered(which is still not enough)...find them more of a subtlety, very bright citrus, and plenty of crushed geology. I actually like the "softness"...maybe it's the waxy lanolin I get as well? It's not Loire...but for its own terroir...I think they are a pleasurable al...

“This fabulous charity dinner, held to benefit children’s oncology at The Mount Sinai Hospital, featured a breathtaking range of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti’s Montrachet spanning 22 vintages back to 1978. It was a truly magical night of wine, food and conversation, all for a great cause. I would be ...

2013 Azienda Agricola Valentini Trebbiano d'Abruzzo - Italy, Abruzzi, Trebbiano d'Abruzzo (6/21/2019) My first Valentini...instant fan! It's fascinating...exotic and bursting with energy and brightness. Little tingle spritz and sulfur reduction at first...but quickly integrates beautifully showcasi...

Cool that this performed.

I think you need to add subtract 4 points to your sig like the old Parker board days.

*Subtract 5

No need to...I'm spot on now!

2010 Domaine Bertheau (Pierre et François) Bourgogne - France, Burgundy, Bourgogne (6/7/2019) Unfortunately these Bourgogne's are become scarcer and scarcer...but if you can find them...they are SUCH a joy! This 10 is drinking a little dirty...but not is a bad way...sous bois starting to show, eart...

My friend Kyle poured this (or an earlier vintage, I can't recall) at a recent poker game and I adored it. How much does this go for off the mailing list? Also, what's the typical allocation of this for mailing list members? TIA! I can’t recall exactly but at least 6 bottles ea Trousseau, Syrah, Ma...

2007 Domaine William Fèvre Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos - France, Burgundy, Chablis, Chablis Grand Cru (6/7/2019) Last bottle of three...first one in 2013 was amazingly fresh and everything you'd want in GC Chablis...next in 2015 was poxed...drinkable, but definitely advanced...this last bottle proba...

2017 Turley Casa Nuestra - USA, California, Napa Valley, St. Helena (6/5/2019) From a field blend vineyard in St Helena, planted mostly of Zin and Petite Sirah, as well as Chenin Blanc, Alicante, Carignane, Negrette, Mourvedre, Gamay, Refosco...15.1 abv.

08 DP was 144, now 149 at our local Costco today. Still bought more though!

this bottle was tighter than the recent 2014, not more stuffing, just leaner with the acidity more in the forefront. A sterner wine than the gentle 2014, still quite enjoyable—more Ramonet mint and citrus, less stone fruit and flowers. Still a great quaff w a long future. Good news alan! You sold m...

What's the ABV of the 2018? And do you know if they do stem inclusion?

Cheers!

12.5...and 100% whole cluster with stems, if I remember correctly from our pourer.

Funny...saw the thread title and quickly thought...”I know that wine?”...clicked on it and chuckled! Need to revisit a bottle!

2018 Turley Cinsault Bechthold Vineyard - USA, California, Central Valley, Lodi (5/30/2019) Drinks like a 133yr old vined Rose'! Put a slight chill on it...contemplate what was going on in the world in 1886...WAY more fascinating than your typical rose'! Drinks like a Cru Bojo with the vibrant fres...

What did you pay? I bought a 64 Ech a few years ago for something like $250...similar ullage and color(perceived) to your Richie...the wine SUCKED! Corked/oxed/spoiled/rancid....you get what you pay for!

And...why white out the bottle#?

Remember 20yrs ago when 2015 LaTache was only $5000....now its $100,000! Free drone shipping though.
