Popular Post NapaNolan Posted March 8, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 8, 2022 Nice find for $21 at Costco. Infinitely more immediately drinkable and enjoyable than the 2017 Produttori I also bought there recently, though I'm sure the Produttori will be the better wine in 20 years. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve heard good things and love Barrell products in general. However, I wasn’t a huge fan of the Armida bottling (I think the Amaro finish threw me off).

Bill Hayes Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 A negroni my way with a sprinkle of instant espresso muddled with Angostura bitters and orange bitters and a slice of orange. Nice match with the Carlota Maduro thanks to the underlying coffee note. Cheers. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Shrimpchips Posted April 10, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 10, 2022 Realized I haven’t bought a sherry cask finished scotch in some time. Rectified that with a Glen Dronach Revival 15. Should have paired with a VR or RA. Quite liking Revival. Any recommendations for a next bottle? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(edit - fixed JohnS) the next two pics cover the wines. and while we are at it, this was thursday's lunch. the two stars were the two pol roger sir winstons, 2000 and 2012. bloody technology! no ideas how those last three pics got in - they were from the tripe lunch the previous week. sadly, no more lunches on the horizon for a few weeks. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am certainly more knowledgeable about red wine than Champagne. Everyone enjoyed it and found it a step up from a lot of others ones we’ve had. The truth is I was looking for something more known like Dom but the selection of Champagne’s here right now is very limited. My daughter is a music teacher so I though the Stradivarius was appropriate for the occasion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have avoided as well. Seems to gimmicky to take seriously. Plus, I have seen some heavy discounting of their wines that lead me to fortify my opinion.

Bill Hayes Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 Trying to broaden my wine experiences into Europe, which I know little about. Late Autumn chill suggests Northern Rhone might be ideal. Always thought this would be my go-to region. Here's my first introduction. A cheapie but nice all rounder. Enjoyed a Southern Rhone 50% Grenache, 40% Syrah, 10% Moudervourerdhowdoyouspellit yesterday which I thoroughly enjoyed too. Ha ha! Cheers. This one I thought a little thin but I just had a cigar and a stout. Very rounded for a 2019. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was very nice but of course it would never live up to the cost and I got a great deal on it. I always wanted to try a well aged First Growth Bordeaux. Now I have, lol.

Very rounded for a 2019. interesting to see that here. they seemed reasonably prevalent a long while back but the stuff they were doing then was pretty average at best and they seemed to disappear from our shelves. have not seen much from them for a while - a couple of bottles that have been good - but i understand that they are now doing much better things these days so good for them to be back. did you get it from Nicks? i gather he has it at a tick under $50 (cheap for us, sadly). bill, if you still have the bottle, can you tell me the importer?
