Wine Berserkers - international wine social media, online community, and discussion

When I lived in Changsha, Hunan PRC our cook would loosely chop them and the wok them up with garlic and red pepper flakes. Hot and delicious.

There are a handful of cases left of this wine. For me there is no summer shipping (historically), so I will be putting an offering together in September. Then just wait on the weather. Thanks for the kind words.

Thanks Adam. This wine is 50% whole cluster, no new oak, and a field blend of Pommard and Wadenswil planted into a mix of volcanic and marine sedimentary soils. For those of you up to speed on Youngberg Hill, it's Natalie's block. - the photo is a straight up pic of the entry level WVPN which in 201...

Josh Raynolds just wrote them up in May over at Vinous.

Still a Ken Wright wine back then.

+1 the early 90's Ken wines from DS and PC were very beautiful efforts.

Be on the lookout for the 2007 vintage. It was particularly shitty.
Agreed. I had a 2007 Biggio Hamina Deux Vert last week that was very nice. Bob Wood would have approved.

Shitty is what I do.

I want to say 1997.

Thanks Gents, I tried not to lean into this wine too much. 20% whole cluster, 42 days in the fermenter, 22 months in neutral (old) barrels, spontaneous primary and secondary ferments, unfiltered and racked once for bottling. So, the usual...

2010 stony hill chardonnay; lemon/peach/melon notes on the nose made me think this was going to be a big, rich Chardonnay, but instead this was very restrained and crisp on the palate. What a lovely wine!

I have always been surprised at how consistently delicious these wines deliver.

There's a bunch of different thinking that goes into making a wine for each closure. Apples and oranges...

Ran out of Echezeaux corks. Finish the run with the GE corks...

Good discovery. My thought has always been that you'll find tasty wine at nice prices in Savigny-les-Beaune. This Ecard generation is doing nice work too.

I have enough older single vineyard Pinot to make three more six packs of the "older Mystery Box" variety. $265 and I will ship in the Fall. Thanks.

BHC will open in June by appointment for small groups only. There were many people out and about this weekend, and reports that they were from counties not yet open. I can wait.

2015 was a very warm year, and this wine was completely destemmed so there was no way the stems were going to help refine this beast. I don't mind that because I feel it showcases what that year gave us. And really that is what I like to do, let the year shine through. This vineyard on marine sedime...

I just pm'd you. Thanks!

Also, with the exception of the the 2012 Sunnyside Riesling and the 2017 Andreas Gewürztraminer which are under cork, the rest of the wines are screwcapped.

Sure, pm me your number and I will call you.

For this next installment of wines for sale we have whites and pinks. If you think about red wine making we spent lots of time coaxing all the goodness from the skins. The opposite is true, seemingly, with white wine making. But what if you had questions about this process? What if you started playi...

Glad you were able to make a nice home for these Dennis.

My daughter goes to SCAD and this board reco'd The Grey a few years ago. It does not disappoint. I eat there every visit, which pleases the kid.

Zunzi's, and Vinnie Van Go-go's too.

The Original Pinkie Masters is a nice sh!t bar as well.

There's a case left. Ish.

Thanks everyone. If you have any questions, just let me know.

I am supposed to have some cold chain shipping in place by mid May (but it gets consolidated, so takes 14-21 days).

Make it a case for $500.

Swap in a 12 or 17 Caroline and the price is $320 for the Sixer, $615 if you double it to make a case. And that right there is a deal.

Here's the latest offering, it's all Pinot unless you want Sangiovese. $265 for the 6er with free shipping. Pick six, yep, you pick the six you want. All Single Vineyard. Mix and match to your hearts content, or all of one wine, it's your choice: 2007 Deux Vert 2007 Momtazi 2009 Deux Vert 2013 Old F...

Chris, I'll answer this q for everybody. 2007 Momtazi is in a very nice spot right now and I suspect that will continue for another 4 years. Is this a twenty year wine? I don't know, but it has the stuffing and should remain interesting for awhile longer. The 2010 Deux Vert is just coming into its o...

Well, there are single vineyard PN's from 2007 (Deux Vert & Momtazi) that I can put in a mixed vintage 6er for $265 for those who are interested. There's 07, 08, 09, 10, 13 Old Farm, 14-17 to chose from. I'm pretty flexible these days.

I'm here to help.

You cleaned us out Dennis. Thanks.

Patty Green Muscat is the obvious choice.

Alright, new addition... you can pick a couple of vintages that you would like in the box (as of 4/24/2020).

Kelley Fox and Volnay

Sold!

1x 3/3 left.

Good deal. To answer your question about the label inspiration, we gave our graphic designer two pieces to work with:

Nicolas Potel's label and our wedding cake.

And get ready for the older whites offer coming up later this week or next week. I am vetting candidates currently. Todd, that sounds great. I just got my wines and thank you for all the years...I think I got at least one wine from 07,08,09,11,13, and 15! Quick question, any drinking order recommen...

And get ready for the older whites offer coming up later this week or next week. I am vetting candidates currently.

Thanks Matt, there's now 5 & 13.

8 & 16.

I can still make lots of these Mystery Boxes, 17's and Freshies, and include SV's from 07,08,09 as well as other fun stuff in the Mystery Box. Thanks.

11 of the 07's, and 19 of the 11's left. I'll do three and three until the 07's are gone. Then two and four, then 0 and 6. Thanks again!

Thanks Dennis!

Thanks Todd! Interesting the correlation to stem inclusion but perhaps the Dundee Hills AVA seems to open more quickly than others...

Screw business - love that you awing for the fences - sounds a bit like 2010 Riesling's.

I'll need another 20 years to see if i was right about the Rieslings...

And remember these are the Willamette Valley AVA wines, and not Single Vineyards. Thanks.

42 bottles of 2007 and 2011 left!! Actually 17 bottles of 2007 and 25 bottles of 2011. And that's it. Updated 4/21/2020

In terms of accessibility: Ana, Deux Vert and then Momtazi. Funny enough... 20%, 70% and 90% whole cluster. I came out swinging with wines that I thought would age as my first vintage. From a business standpoint, perhaps not my savviest move, but we are talking art. - certainly smarter than making S...

So go and buy Syrah from all of these producers!!!
