Inspired to drink a wine from the Jura after today’s Tour de France stage. Really good example of a non-oxidative style of savagnin that still retains some depth and a touch of nutty character. Lemon curd, lemon verbena and touch of alpine herbs — a month ago

Instantly transported to our honeymoon in Greece. A little lighter and more minerality than a lot of malagousia I’ve had. Slight floral peachy aromatics, but then more linear on the palate than you’d think. Bring on the grilled seafood! — 2 months ago

Hello old friend. Always so good! And at a time when wine prices feel like they’ve exploded, has remained reasonably priced — a month ago

Kind of an amazing blend that truly seems to represent Etna with both the nerello mascalese and the frappato/nero d’avola. Had a little more weight and power than I expected, while still retaining freshness — 2 months ago

Good vintage of an all-time classic. Tasting a little extra lean and minerally tonight — 2 months ago

At four horseman. Delicious and paired well with the food. Nutty, curry spices, dried apricot, good influence of the flor. Love! More sherry like than a lot of other dry unfortified palominos I’ve had — 2 months ago
