2020 Forge Cellars Dry Riesling Caywood Vineyard

Pale straw with a nose centered on lemony citrus and waxy yellow-current fruit. Tart, midweight, finish is perhaps a bit short. A good effort but surprisingly soft and unfocused for Forge in a strong vintage. Enjoyed the pairing with an udon / tofu / eggplant dish and a salad with an Asian dressing.

2020 Laurent Ponsot Gevrey-Chambertin Cuvée de l'Aulne

A delicious Pinot noir and quite a bargain, too: although I paid $90 for one bottle, you can buy six at $66 per bottle now. I might! Deeply colored with a nose showing black cherry, violets, crème brûlée. Elusive hint of cola very late on the nose. On the palate, velvety structured with firm tannins, medium acidity, very long finish. Fantastic aging potential here. 91 now, could reach 93-94 at full maturity.

2011 Château Rayas Côtes du Rhône Château de Fonsalette Reserve

I really like this wine, although it isn’t yet at what will be its peak. Light cranberry color, nose showing red licorice, musk, tobacco, spice. Taut in the mouth with a kind of nervous energy, very long, mineral finish.
