TN: Bubble, Quincy, Cigales, CA red
Some old friends were in town from Asheville NC, we went to a dinner welcoming them in Riverdale. With cheeses, tapenade, and dates
NV Le Mesnil Brut Champagne from Rare Wine Company Classy, elegant medium bodied BdB, good value. B+/B NV Mionetto Prosecco Sweeter, apples and mint, a little short B-/C+ With chicken tagine, rice, and Betsys spicy Moroccan salad (with cauliflower, nuts, etc) 2001 Finca Museum €śMuseum Real Reserva€ť (Cigales) Red fruited, a little kirsch note, plenty of vanilla, quite popular, a little glossier than I would have liked. B- 2015 Menage a Trois red Sweet, jammy, wet is it best attribute. C+/C 2015 Villalin Quincy Pretty grapefruit scented SB, with just a hint of grass and catpee. Quite floral, good acids, a touch of earth, nice finish. Buy more. B++ Grade disclaimer: I'm a very easy grader, basically A is an excellent wine, B a good wine, C drinkable. Anything below C means I wouldn't drink at a party where it was only choice.Furthermore, I offer no promises of objectivity, accuracy, and certainly not of consistency. |
