First half of the late season onions cured, cleaned, and ready for bagging. Spanish White to complement the Patterson onions already in storage. Accompanied by a friendly @millbrookwinery Grüner.
Bison tenderloin on the menu tonight. Starting with a Hemingway daiquiri before popping open the Williams Selyem.

Cooper’s Daughters specials—Rhubarb Sour was awesome—and regular cocktail list. Great place for evening chilling. Claverack, NY #hudsonvalleyrocks
Enjoyed this thread. I also find there’s too much effort deconstructing wine flavor and reducing the experience to a parlor game (who can get the mist obscure flavors?) that misses the point of the whole. A search algorithm based on that? Nah.
A search algorithm for Wine Flavor Descriptors is a hellish idea. Here's why. ::deep breath::

Taking the time and travel machine to Umbria tonight. Expecting a little magic.

If you’re looking for an inexpensive but entirely scrumptious wine, try Lebanon. Cinsault, Grenache, Tempranillo. Big dinner hit tonight.

Goin’ back to Panzano tonight!

UPDATE: both wines great, but the CCR is absolutely fantastic. So opulent, rich, layered. Amazing. Like a super vintage port but sans sweetness.

If you find yourself in North Creek, NY (Gore Mt), give Bar Vino a try. Great wines BTG and delicious food. Discovered the callet grape (4kilos, Mallorca) and a Chinon I loved (finally!!): Baron de la truffe “les truffières”
Adirondack beauty. Afternoon. Evening. North Creek, NY. Gonna be a great week.
