Le Petiot Touraine Sauvignon Blanc 2023

Delightful. Bought 3 bottles for a Christmas party. Every guest LOVED it. A bit fruit forward initially but dry. Goes well on its own or with various apps - meats, cheese, fruit, etc. would absolutely buy again. Thank you Crush Wines - manhattan for another outstanding recommendation. Also. The value is off the charts. . — 6 months ago

Sine Qua Non

Jusqu'à l'Os Grenache 2013

2013 Sine Qua Non "Jusqu' à l'os" Sta. Rita Hills Grenache.
Back yet again to Manfred’s obsession with French names, this one is most apropos as I just finished watching the French Grand Prix at circuit Paul Ricard (remember the name Charles Leclerc F1 fans). And the wine’s name is spot on because this brooding bruiser of a Grenache is definitely “Bad To The Bone” alright. 79% Grenache from the 11 Confessions Vineyard along with 18% Syrah and 3% Petite Sirah, produced using 89% whole cluster and aged for around 38 months in 51% used oak, 6% new French oak and 43% concrete tanks. In the stem, deep Porsche Aubergine (one of my favorite vintage Porsche colors). Yet another in a long line of SQN “sit, swirl and contemplate” wines, this one has a highly perfumed nose of fresh raspberries, anise, spice box and freshly ground pepper. Full-throttled palate of plums, berries and that pepper, with earthy notes and toasted spices lurking in the background. Ultra-smooth tannins. Long, lingering kiss of a finish. Beautifully structured, this one takes the term “greatly concentrated” to a whole new level. Mr. Krankl definitely has a way with the finicky Grenache varietal. And yet again, his prowess as a master blender extraordinaire is on full display. Conventional wisdom says cellar, but it’s pretty darn good right now. Take a chance. Live a little!

Perfect with #iberico pork. #priorat #garnachalover #garnachapower #garnacha @Ricard Rofes well done. Massive bottle. I love the bottle at the same time as I feel it's not very ecological. Some nice floral notes on the nose and a lovely grainy texture with ripe tannins on the palate. Definitely a wine that can age for decades. — 9 years ago

A fine elegant wine, not the fleshly Meursault, but good minerality.

Chenonceaux Tasciaca Touraine Sauvignon Blanc

(Sung to the tune of ‘Oh What a Night’) Oh what a nose. Late July, 2018. Floral nose and mango, touch of almond, maybe. And that pallet. Almond, nugget, tart unripe mango, fennel pollen, gardenia, guava. Yes, I’ll take more. — 8 years ago

Pierre á Feu Sauvignon 2019

“Pierre à Feu is sourced from Vincent's thirty year-old Sauvignon Blanc vines that are planted on the silex (flint and clay) soils that extend east from the Cher River. When I asked why he named the wine Pierre à Feu (French for "flint", or literally, "firestone"), Vincent smiled, "The name 'Silex' was already taken," [by Didier Dagueneau's estate, who produces a similar cuvée of Sauvignon grown on flint and clay; however, the cost of one bottle of Domaine Didier Dagueneau "Silex" is about the same as a six-pack of Domaine Ricard Pierre à Feu.]

In the glass, this shimmering pale yellow-gold Sauvignon Blanc reveals enticing aromas of white grapefruit, bergamot, lemon verbena, and gun smoke, along with apricot, green mango, sage and orange oil, as the nose evolves over time. On the palate, the wine is silky, polished, precise and persistent, with a fine core of yellow-green citrus and exotic fruit flavors that echo the nose, all seasoned with its namesake flinty minerality throughout a seemingly endless finish.” — Moore Brothers

Reserva Rioja Tempranillo 2008

Produced by Ysios Winery which belongs to Pernod Ricard Bodegas located in Laguradia. Ruby with dark edges from 100% Tempranillo grapes, 30 year-old vines, and aged in French and Hungarian oak. Aromas of black fruit and spice. On the palate blackberry and cherry flavors surrounded by integrated fine tannins. Almost creamy on the finish ending with some cacao and oak notes. — 10 years ago
