One of the best experiences we've ever had in Bordeaux was at Chateau Smith Haut Lafitte (an amazing getaway for couples)! 👇

Hello world! It’s been a while. The honorable Comte Georges de Vogüé moved me enough to come back to twitter for a quick post. Young vines from the Musigny vineyard are capable of magic. Nothing further.

Chateau Lagrange Pomerol in fine shape at 70 years old. What a wonderful experience. Cheers! 🍷

Yea, yea, yea, I get it: this is an entry level cuvée and you’re (mostly) paying for the Sauzet label. But. This bad boy was still doing alright after 5 days. Five. Days. Nice!

What is the worst human invention after natural wines?

Get your affairs in order, it’s Monday night.

Tasty, if simple, German pinot noir. Love cool finds like this.

Got to taste Vega Sicilia’s current releases this week. Of the two pictured pictured below, the fella on the right blew me away. Hadn’t had a great Valbuena in quite a while and although way too young, this is definitely one of the great vintages of late. Cheers! 🍷

Spotted in the wild, this old grandpa is holdin up just fine! Love me a Rioja with some age to it. Cheers!

Grolleau is known for being a “meh” grape: not much personality, sort of simple, bland. Anne Claude Leflaive, however, has managed to produce quite the wine in 2020. Crowd pleaser with all around positive reviews at a recent lunch for 6. Will try some more. Cheers!

1/3 of a bottle of wine over the course of two hours is the perfect amount. Don’t @ me.
