Came upon this gem. Very bright with excellent backbone for a 2012. Santa Ynez Valley big red blend. Tons of forward rhubarb and dark roasted cherry compote notes with a balanced tannic structured woody berry midpallet and finishing big and silky smooth. Going to pick up some more. Wonderful wine 🍷. #santaynezava #redblend #vincentvineyards #cuvee #2012harvest # #cabernetsauvignon #merlot #cabernatefranc #petiteverdot #finewine #layitdown
From a magnum that I have stored for a few years, superbly fresh but well mellowed without sharp edges. White florals, whiff of butter and white yellow fruited. Delicious drinking and I think right at peak now. #burghound #winetasting #frenchwine #finewine #finewines #grandcru #winegeek #wineadvocate #winelover #wines #wine #winesg #winestagram #sgwine #sgwines #winepairing #vintagewine #vintage #premiercru #grandcru #chardonnay

Glorious Chardonnay from Piedmont. Lime in color but lemon in taste. Very fresh fruit, a great stony minerality, with the slightest vanilla cream note. Medium-bodied. Great wine from a region not as known for Chardonnay. This Chardonnay is from a region most known for their Nebbiolo grapes.

This #tuesdayfoodie inspiration has us hungry and ready for dinner! We paired this delicious grilled ribeye steak with our 2016 Palachchak Zinfandel. Although an unusual pairing, the Zinfandel works well with the spicy rub we used on the meat and helps to counterbalance the "heat". #foodie #foodies #tipsytuesday #sonomawine #sonoma #finewine #zinfandel #zinzin #zinlife #winepairing #steak #foodandwine #nativeamericanwines #wine #wineexplorer #redwineplease #tuesdays #bbqtime #sommlife #steaklover #winelovers #winelover #wineandfood #vino #barbecue #perfectsteak
Armand Rousseau “Lavaux St. Jacques” 1er Cru Gevrey-Chambertin 2019… Showing beautifully pnp. Gorgeous perfumed aromatics, killer concentration, elegant texture and great energy. Rousseau is always next level. This bottling is far better in 2019 than 2018. Both richness and vibrancy.

🍇🏰 Відкрийте для себе Шато Монтелена — ікону американського виноробства, відома своєю ролью у "Паризькому дегустаційному суді 1976 року", що кардинально змінило сприйняття каліфорнійських вин у світі. Історія та Особливості Шато Монтелена було засновано в 1882 році, і воно розташоване в північній частині Напа Веллі біля містечка Калістога. Виноробня отримала свою назву від невеликого пагорба в регіоні, відомого як Маунт Сент Елена. У 1972 році виноробню придбала сім'я Барреттів, яка відновила та модернізувала виробництво, піднявши якість вин до світового рівня. Паризький Дегустаційний Суд 1976 Шато Монтелена стало всесвітньо відомим завдяки своєму Шардоне, яке перемогло у знаменитому "Паризькому дегустаційному суді 1976 року". Цей конкурс несподівано вивів каліфорнійське вино на перший план, демонструючи, що американські вина можуть конкурувати на рівних з відомими французькими винами. Виноградні Сорти Шато Монтелена виробляє кілька видів вин, включаючи Шардоне, Зінфандель і Каберне Совіньйон. Їхнє Каберне Совіньйон відоме своєю структурою, глибиною та потенціалом до витримки, часто порівнюючи його з винами класу Гранд Крю з Бордо. Винарська Філософія Філософія Шато Монтелена полягає у створенні вин, які відображають унікальний терруар Напа Веллі. Вони прагнуть до мінімального втручання у виноробство, що дозволяє винограду виявляти свої природні характеристики. Визнання та Нагороди Вина Шато Монтелена регулярно отримують високі оцінки від винних критиків і продовжують бути високо оцінені на міжнародній арені завдяки їх високій якості та історичному значенню. Поєднання з Їжею Вина Шато Монтелена ідеально підходять до широкого спектру страв, від морепродуктів та птиці до червоного м'яса і витриманих сирів, зокрема їх Шардоне чудово доповнює легкі страви, а Каберне Совіньйон — ідеальний для більш насичених м'ясних страв. Шато Монтелена продовжує бути символом високої якості в американському виноробстві та важливою частиною винної історії. #ChateauMontelena #NapaValley #WineHistory #Chardonnay #CabernetSauvignon #WineLovers #FineWine #SerenitySips
The top cuvés from the Sadie Family. Profound wines born out of passion. Columella 2020: The most stunning nose and immediately recognizable. This is columella, perfumed and floral, violets crushed red and Forrest berries, some ethereal supernova particles gives it a ballerina like tension with the perfect elasticity like the spring of a perfectly tuned violin. some peppery syrah notes a bit of blueberries, black cherries and sour cherries, blackberries, some spice from the whole bunch. Beautiful acidity. Fantastic tannins and beautiful structure! Already perfection, drink now and the next 30+years - 99p Pallsdius 2020: Fat and oily yet razor sharp and eccentric with mouthwatering acidiy and charming tannins. Honeydew, lemon yuzu, underripe pear and lanolin wooly chenin character, tonnes of minerality and salty. Everything is still in tension maybe even too much. Need air and time, I’ll open my bottle in 5-10 years. Made to age. 95p #thesadiefamily #riedel #finewine #terroir #swartland #vintage2020 #ebensadie #wineunprofessional
Incredible week for #EP campaign in #Bordeaux 🍷 for @bonhams1793 and @bonhamswhiskyandwine 50 shades of vintage 2023 with the impressive women and men behind. Fresh, elegant, refined. Multi-faceted vintage where the majority of winemaking techniques came into play. Focus in the vineyards during the growing season and precision in the cellar were needed. The harvest date was crucial and most of the estates have extended their harvesting over many weeks, for some of them the longest range in their history. Wonderful to taste with such palates and brains: @labelsandgrapes (Pauline Vicard), @jamieritchiewine and Marie Keep from @bonhamswhiskyandwine An infinite thanks 🙏 to the stellar @ludisoubi from @mestrezat for the perfect organisation. #finewine #bordeaux

Szampany to jedne z najbardziej uniwersalnych win w połączeniach z jedzeniem🍾 Jednak pewnie nie przychodzą Wam one do głowy jako pierwsze, gdy zastanawiacie się nad winem do grilla. Dziś postaramy się to zmienić! Grupa szampanów jest tak bogata i różnorodna, że z łatwością znajdziemy w niej kilka pewniaków do połączenia z tym, co najbardziej lubicie położyć na grilla. Co najważniejsze, nie musicie szukać dalej niż w naszej ofercie! Blanc de Noirs – mięso🥩Intensywność i soczystość wina podołają grillowanej wołowinie. Kreatywni mogą eksperymentować ze sposobem jej przyrządzenia, podania, a nawet z rodzajem węgla, na którym grillujecie! Rosé – ryby, grillowane owoce morza🍤Grillowany łosoś lub mięsiste krewetki to doskonała para dla różowego szampana. Poszukajcie wersji mineralnych, które wniosą słone nutki, pięknie komponujące się z pochodzącymi z morza potrawami. Blanc de Blancs – warzywa🌽Cytrusowy, mineralny szampan będzie świetną parą dla chrupkich, delikatnie zgrillowanych warzyw. Cebula zapiekana z masłem nabierze dzięki niemu mnóstwo energii, a świeże, chrupkie szparagi wejdą na zupełnie inny poziom, gdy popijecie je schłodzonym szampanem w tym stylu. Brut Sans Année świetnie sprawdzi się w roli uniwersalnego wina. Ma świeżość, intensywność i moc uniesienia nawet średnio ciężkich potraw. Jego wysoka kwasowość to klucz do udanych połączeń z rybami i owocami morza (w takim połączeniu szampan zastępuje sok z cytryny i dodaje pairingowi energii), a głębia aromatów nie podda się łatwo grillowanemu kurczakowi. W takim wypadku możecie też postawić na jedną ze znanych marek, ponieważ spotkanie przy grillu może nie być najlepszą okazją do zgłębiania tajników regionu i małych producentów 😉 Pro tip – duża grupa gości prosi się o butelkę magnum👌Pamiętajcie o schłodzeniu wina – szampan nie powinien być bardzo mocno schłodzony, ale bardzo łatwo zagrzeje się w ciepły wieczór. Przygotujcie wiaderko z lodem, aby cieszyć się Waszym winem w najlepszej temperaturze! Pamiętajcie, aby spożywać alkohol bezpiecznie, odpowiedzialnie i w miejscach do tego przeznaczonych! #champagne #wine #finewine #sparkling #bbq #foodandwine

In the realm of selecting a champagne of prestige, it behooves one to pay heed to the various nuances that shape the essence of the elixir: Meteorology, its aging potential, its appearance, aroma, and palate, imparting a unique imprint upon the grape. Those criteria render each champagne singular due to the influence they exert on its character and gustatory profile. So, uncover the distinctive attributes of our Rare Champagne Millésime 2013 ! #RareChampagne #Champagne #Champagnelovers #Champagne #RareExperience #Finewine #Bubbles #Champagnelover #ChampagneMoments
I had a LOT of fun presenting on @loirewines.official with the amazing @erinkjolley MW yesterday. Fun sparkling wines, textural Chenin & Muscadet, vibrant Sauvignon and OF COURSE, those beautifully fragrant Francs. As a fan of freshness and drinkability, presenting this was an easy yes. Grateful to the @amaraatparaiso team led by @quepasamanda for managing this very busy room, and to the team @hopscotch_sopexa_agency for making sure we had some delicious wines and a lovely room of Miami trade. And of course thank to all who came along and participated. Dream team! . #loirewine #cabernetfranc #cheninblanc #finewine #winelover
Celebrating the wine of tomorrow 🌳 On Sunday 21st April, the Larrivet Haut-Brion team was joined by a handful of leading trade and press members for a rustic lunch at the property. Organised in collaboration with Wine Lister, it was the perfect occasion for the estate to unveil its ambitious “Vineyard of the Future” project and start the en primeur tasting week on a high note. At the heart of the Vineyard of the Future project is a 12-hectare plot that will be replanted over the next two years. The objective is threefold: ensure the quality of its wine in the context of climate change, bolster the local ecosystem, and preserve the terroir for generations to come. To achieve this, the property has sacrificed 10% of its production in favour of hedgerows, flower strips, and trees, with the grapes from this new plot to be incorporated in the Grand Vin from 2040. The project also sees the unique inclusion of the Paulownia tree, which will be planted in between vine rows. This “tree of the future” is one of the fastest growing trees in the world and can absorb 10 times more CO2 than most. Lunch guests were able to see the recently planted shoots – no more than a few inches tall – which are expected to reach three metres by August (as Technical Director, François Godichon, is explaining in the fifth photo). Organised by Wine Lister’s communication division, the intimate lunch reflected the estate’s values of teamwork and conviviality, with pickled vegetables from Managing Director, Bruno Lemoine’s garden, an impressive seafood pâté en croûte made by his son, Victor, while François was grilling local meats from the back of his tractor. As per tradition, Bruno invited guests to pick their own knife from his custom collection, and suggested that one day, the grips might be crafted from the estate’s Paulownia wood! #larrivethautbrion #bordeaux #pessac #strategicmarketingandcommunication #eventorganisation #finewine #winelovers
