Are any of the Wine Berserkers crew going to be coming out to Sonoma next weekend for this event? I’m excited to try a bunch of wines from new wineries I don’t know much about yet, and to taste wines from some that I know are delicious from previous tastings (Spur Road and Lussier). Let me know if there’s any on there I can’t miss. I was planning on trying Maybach and Oxlee Graham for the first time.
If you do you happen to make it out, be sure to say hello if you see me pouring my wines and mention you’re a Berserker!
Lussier is supposed to be making incredible wines.
Unfortunately, the two I’ve tried quickly at Disco Ranch in Boonville seemed too tight to accurately judge, but that store has impeccable taste and had Lussier in the same convo as some amazing smaller producers in the area like Read Holland and Minus Tide
Fun event for all who were able to make it - loved the slightly smaller crowd and number of wineries pouring - allowed everyone to get around and taste what they wanted in a relatively timely manner.
Had a chance at the end to say hi to @balmkrueger and trade some partial bottles - gonna try yours today - let me know what you thought of the ones I left you with!
@balmkrueger I finally had a chance to try both of your 2022 Pinots tonight after driving home. Less than 1/4 of ea bottle was left over after the event and neither was gassed . . .
Congrats my friend! Both beautiful examples of Pinot from the region.
