Bernkasteler Badstube Spätlese Riesling 2021

Abbreviated notes from the morning after an amazing gathering of family and friends the day after my daughter’s wedding (which was MORE amazing than the wines!).

Such brightness, lightness, and intensity all together. Electric.

Mosel Riesling 2019

Pale straw color. Aromas of citrus, orange blossoms and slate. Wow! What crisp, dry Riesling from Mosel! Citrus, bright- killer! — 4 years ago

Château Musar

Bekaa Valley Red Blend 2013

Decanted for around an hour, the recently released 2013 Grand Vin from Chateau Musar is an enormous wine at present in its youth. Gradually, it opened into a gorgeous, exotic and utterly unique product of this unlikely corner of the wine world. There’s plenty of Bordeaux-like character in the form of dark fruit and cigar box, but there are notes too of cranberry, liquorice, clove, mandarin and five spice. The mouthfeel, as a whole, has a quasi Brunello quality to it, with its bright cherry fruit and mouthwatering acidity. But woe is anyone to compare this wine to any other, for it is incomparable. One of Serge Hochar’s last vintages before his passing in 2014, and one that will doubtless have a long life. — 5 years ago

Grand Cordon Brut Champagne

9.0

Lively red apple, ripe pear, grapefruit and citrus zest, and subtle red berry notes, with a hint of toasted brioche. The fine mousses are quite vigorous in the bottle, leading to a refreshing, clean finish. Easy to enjoy. — 7 months ago
