Plush layers of blackberry, red current, plum, rhubarb, herbs glide atop fine grain tannins. Dark chocolate, pomegranate infuse the distinctive bitter finish. Well balanced, well structured, always a fantastic value

This evening a great "slam dunk" white wine with some early skin contact from an innovative wine maker Enrico @rivetto who has a basket ball net in his winery courtyard

The one wine that will stand up to a ripe Époisses. Razor-sharp acidity w/ notes of peat, pickled walnuts, dried & candied fruits (especially citrus), caramel, all sorts of precious woods & spices, enveloped by a slight sweetness but finishing dry on a spray of seasalt. #Madeira

Nascetta, a wonderful almost lost white from @rivetto with much character that pushes it to be a fine white wine from the Langhe

Nice 2015 Languedoc Rousillon , Marsanne Rousanne Rolle Blanc , paired with a great piece of pork belly with fab crackling tonight

Honeyed layers of almond biscotti, lemon, pear, wildflowers accented by racy acidity. Lemon, baked apple, nutmeg, clover honey infuse the mineral driven finish. Creamy, lush, engaging

Needed a wine that would stand up to guiness/port-braised wagyu short ribs. Totally found, and Mr. Pira’s 2011 Margheria has many good years ahead.

I had forgotten about this video I had taken of the Negra Criolla harvest, until @SarahAbbottMW just sent me a message asking if I had any videos of the harvest. – at Bolivia

Is there anywhere that makes pinot noir better than the Ahr?
This from Meyer-Nakel although it is there base offering it's just sublime

There is always a time for a Pfalz

Rhodt unter Rietburg makes some grand wine and great memories from last year and a favourite winemaker of @heikelarsson

It was summer on the deck tonight. 70+ temperature and stayed out until late. Much too early for spring but we enjoyed it

There is Riesling
Then there is German Riesling
Then there is Pfalz Riesling
Then at last you must have Knipser Riesling
Riesling in all its glory

This evening when a wine label says Elegance then for sure it is elegant on the palate, what else do you expect from the Pfalz?

This evening a Portugieser from the Pfalz and yet nothing to do with Portugal.
Bernhart is a grand winery and certainly knows how to handle red grapes
