The italian in laws visited to spend time with their grand daughter. gave me lots of time to cook all day , every day , and serve nice wines:
Pouilly fume calvet 2014: *** My newfound interest atm is Pouilly Fume. This one is pretty intense, nicely textured, quite acidic, which is normally not a good thing. A bit grassy, but this that dog pee grassy thing I often get in SAuv. Blanc. But when I had it with tomato sauce something clicked. Chards do not work with that. this one was great. Need to check out more. Pouilly fume, another not important brand 2014: ** This is a step under the calvet. I bought it for cooking, and tasted a bit. it is less intence, and lacks that nice texture. bourgogne pere et fils 2013 *** Revisiting the most popular wine from the Burgundy tasting. It is still powerful for a burgundy, like oversdeas, but more sour. Les Quarts CdR 2012 **** Quite surprising. smoky and sour like northrhone, except it doesnt even have syrah in it. Not licoricy like grenache often is. Cornas Courbis Les Esquits 2004 ***** Now I've had all 3 installments of their cornas 2004. this is hte midtier. it seems more mature than sabarote and the lesser champelrose. Castelgiacondo brunello 2003 ***** People started talking about its dead 5 years ago. its still not dead, even stored some years in my living room. Rozes LBV 2009 **** very surprising. I have this controversial opinion that all port tastes pretty much alike, within their designation. sometimes one tastes like it has the wrong name on it (like offley colheita tasting like a lbv), but still ![]() Don Guido P.X. 20y *** I got this together with the 5+5 rum that aged in the P.X casks. Crazy thing. moscavado sirup . cleaning the glass, the water had a normal sherry color. |
