(have been trying to get T-birg and Eternal Sept to work, but this might be my last post here) Soba bowls with grilled chicken and Shanghai tips with shiitakes and maitakes 2011 Willi Schaefer Graacher Domprobst Kabinett (#3) Nervy for a 2011, racy acids with bright peach and lime fruit. Excellent length, this can age a long time but pretty delicious now.A- 1990 Domaine de Vallouit Les Sables Syrah (Collines Rhodaniennes ) Never heard of producer, this was maybe better than very low expectations. Some black cherry and a little hint of prune, touch of barnyard,roasted meat. Holds up for a bit then gets ashtray-ey. C+ 2012 Domaine Carneros (Taittinger) LD This was actually quite nice, chalky, bready, with lemony fruit. Nice bead, good finish. B+ Duck breast, green beans, sweet potato, spinach 1999 Morot”Marconnets” Beaune 1er Midbodied, black cherry and raspberry, very earthy, modest length.B/B+ Skate in a pepper/caper brown butter, artichoke cuscinetti ( ravioli), salad 2017 Cervaro della Sala (Antinori) Plenty of oak, but good acids, crisp orchard fruits with lemon and a gingery spice note. B+ Some friends over for a Lunar New Year feast. I made longevity noodles and a whole steamed bass, Betsy made bok choy, and Nancy made shrimp dumplings. We also picked up spring rolls, fried pot stickers, duck, and assorted dumplings from a local Chinese grocery (they have dim sum ish stuff on weekends) NV Gosset Grand Rose Apple, cherry, orange peel, and rye bread. Complex and full. B++ 2014 Pepiere Briords Muscadet One of my favorite vintages of one of my favorite bottlings. Rich, bracing acids, oystershell and citrus. Long, saline, and complex. A- 2011 Leitz Rudesheimer Berg Roseneck Spatlese Exotic, with lush mango and papaya, honey accents, tropical flowers, sweet but with good acids. A bit much for me but well done. B 1986 Beychevelle Chosen for dragon boat label (year of the Dragon). Quite refined tannins for a 1986, cassis and black plum with leathery cigarbox notes and a little minty spice.Sorry my only bottle. A-/B+ Grade disclaimer: I'm a very easy grader, basically A is an excellent wine, B a good wine, C drinkable. Anything below C means I wouldn't drink at a party where it was only choice. Furthermore, I offer no promises of objectivity, accuracy, and certainly not of consistency.
