Black Saint Peter

Lodi Old Vine Zinfandel 2023

I liked the uncharacteristic subtle sweetness from plum and dark fruits. Add a touch of leather and vanilla, soft tannins, and this one was smooth. Good stuff! — 4 months ago

Domaine Grosbot-Barbara

S.A.S Prince Charles-Henri de Lobkowicz St. Pourçain Chardonnay Blend 2023

Still one of the great alt whites in the world.

N: swirling white and yellow flowers. Almost an echo of tropical fruit.

P: delicious. Clean. Balanced. Juicy. Liquid yellow flowers. Some crunch. Mountain steam. Amazing elegance.

9.5-9.6. Sick value at this price.

9.6

A significant blast of oak but under that is minerals, green apple, lime zest, but honestly it’s dominated by wood now but I love this wine anyway and it integrates with time and air. Juicy, silky, sweet wood and fruit and so well made. Glides across the palate and has very good acidity but not like 21 or 22. It’s framing acidity but not in your face. Super mineral freshness, sapidity, density and chewiness. Really long finish but these wines transform with air. 9.5 already. Oak has vanished and now so much elegance, more expressive acids and stunning complexity. 9.6 now.
