Bay Ridge Brooklyn, New York pizzerias need to step up their game. I haven’t seen a pizza look that good in a long time. Kinda jealous.

I’m a full on Hell Yeah on that. As usual, your posts are the most joyful of the day!
IIRC, posts on DRC and pizza got some of us a lot of push back back in the day (either here on on the Parker board).
Leave some of those Hawaiian good vibes for us. Arriving June 6 for my 70th birthday dinner.

What year Merlot?

Opened a Ravenswood ‘99 Cab Franc with a red sauce dish this week and ways amazed at the quality of the wine and structure still left (still needed a decant). First experience with Joel’s “library” releases and can’t wait to continue to dig down the rabbit hole with the other 11 bottles

Homemade pizza, demolished a great deal quicker than it took to make.
The wine was
2022 La Révélation Roussane (France, Vin De France)

This is a mystery; Mrs M got it, probably as a prize in a raffle, but she can’t remember where. She left it in the kitchen because she only want NZ savvie. And so it languished until I rescued it to go with my pizza.

It’s a mystery because it’s a Vin de France. The back label goes on about getting the grapes from a winegrower whose vineyards are at a high altitude on granite, but careful reading shows that refers to the winemaker’s first Roussanne vintage, not this. The back label says it is a product of Direct Wine, which is Laithwaites and associated names.

It was a suitable accompaniment, quiet nice, but we wouldn’t buy it. Out of stock on Laithwaite site but was priced at £13.99

I had this with pizza last night but didnt get a picture of the pizza.

Great thread! Ive got a Pitfire Pizza a mile from my house that makes really good pizza and $5 corkage which they often waive for me any way. It’s on my weekly rotation. I’ll be back here posting next week!!

is that Chateau Montelena under wraps?

No, I can’t remember what it was but most likely some Bordelais property.

(The picture was from a few a years ago, but it must have been the summer if I wrapped a cold compress around it)

Thomas Batardière, les Noëls de Montbenault makes a good match. Drank at LuLu in Savennières.

I had that Vietti Castiglione from 2016 the other night and it was super tight, even after an hour in the decanter. Was pretty forgettable actually.

Domino’s…NOT like it was in college!
