10/15/2013 - KenK wrote: 92 pointsStill very dark red opaque. Dark rich ripe black cherry aromas with graphite and grilled pain quality. Dense with pure black cherry, blueberry compote quality. Plenty of structure to balance the massive fruit. Blind I would have guessed a 2009!!! Great raw materials, but still feels like a baby. Long long life ahead and likely gets better. |

2018 Zarate Albariño Rías Baixas Baladomore |
10/26/2019 - KenK Likes this wine: 91 pointsA very nicely crafted, highly drinkable wine that offers up a lot of enjoyment. Reasonably serious, clean and fresh, this displays crushed sea shell, dense fruit, and well integrated brightness. Not overtly serious or complex, yet has depth and lip smacking qualities. Enough stuffing to to last perhaps 3 years or so. Perhaps my best QPR wine of the year at $20. |

4/21/2020 - KenK Likes this wine: 90 pointsAwesome value. Bright clean and so refreshing with lovely lemon zest. Great with scallops, lemon butter risotto & asparagus.. Wish I had more of this. It’s springtime in a bottle. Good yum factor & a real crowd pleaser. To bad I’m in a COVID quarantine. |

2017 Domaine Denis Bachelet Bourgogne-Aligotémore |
12/4/2020 - KenK wrote: 88 pointsClean fresh sea air aromas. Palate is acid driven with a nice lemon curd cut to the fruit. Very well made and quite integrated and balanced for a relatively simpler grape. Planted in 1986 and 1/2 acre. Only white wine made by Bachelet. Quite nice and refreshing. |

2020 Sigalas Assyrtiko Epta OiaSantorini more |
7/8/2022 - KenK Likes this wine: 91 pointsOne of the better Assyrtiko wines tasted on this trip to Santorini out of about a dozen tasted thus far. From Oia, which is on the northern tip of the island, unlike many which the South central area. This wine is fleshy with nice richness balanced by a good acid brightness. It comes across well balanced and fruity. Peaches and pear dominate the flavor profile, yet a penetrating saline like minerality and fresh clean character keep this lively and interesting. A wine I don’t see improving, but drinking very well now. After trying examples of this varietal with 3-4 more years of age that show a slightly oxidized note, recommend drinking over the next year or so. I paid just under 50 euros. |

11/17/2021 - KenK Likes this wine: 91 pointsRezek Society Honors Hugo (Casino Club): This was a delicate and refined Madeira showing pleasant classy elements of dried fig, roasted nuts, and perhaps a touch of orange peel. Although lighter in weight and intensity then I typically prefer, this was a delight. Rezek Society honoring Hugo. |

1908 D'Oliveiras Madeira Boalmore |
11/19/2016 - KenK Likes this wine: 95 pointsTo celebrate the Cubs World Series win, this first since 1908. This stuff was as great as I could have hoped. Looks and pours like motor oil. Walnuts, molasses, orange rind, and cinnamon spice. Rich and oily with lip smacking acidity. A little goes a long way. Impressive. |
