Conegliano Valdobbiadene harvest

Wine in the Time of Coronavirus, Part 23: The Other Prosecco (Tasting Conegliano Valdobbiadene)

Posted on January 28, 2021February 1, 2021 by 1WineDude

In my experience, most people don’t know Jack about Prosecco, despite the fact that we drink metric tons of it (pre-Covid 2019 saw some of the best sales numbers ever for the stuff).

Posted on January 25, 2021January 13, 2021 by 1WineDude

2015 Cortes de Cima Touriga Nacional (Alentejo): Like getting intense stares from some very serious black licorice and violets. $NA A- 2017 Herdade do Rocim Touriga Nacional (Alentejo): Basically, treating everything – the grip, chewy black-&-blue fruits, & tobacco – but the price tag as large & in charge. $15 B+ 2017 Bortolomiol Rive di…

Bruno Paillard Premiere Cuvee NV

Wine in the Time of Coronavirus, Part 22: Who’s Down With BPC? (Bruno Paillard Champagne Tasting)

Posted on January 21, 2021February 1, 2021 by 1WineDude

I think that we can forgive Alice Paillard, of Bruno Paillard Champagne, for being opinionated. As the daughter of the eponymously named BPC’s founder, she’s basically had a lifetime of working with someone who himself is, well, opinionated about Champagne. According to Alice (with whom I tasted through a few BPC samples as part of…

Wine Reviews: Weekly Mini Round-Up For January 18, 2021

Posted on January 18, 2021January 4, 2021 by 1WineDude

NV Charles Heidsieck Blanc de Blancs (Champagne): Like yellow apples and freshly baked goods; only, they’re being served in heaven. $95 A 2017 Fattoria di Calappiano Collegonzi Sangiovese (Toscana): Earthy, spicy, feisty, and almost too big… emphasis on the “almost.” $NA A- 2015 Dow’s Late Bottled Vintage Port (Portugal): The poor man’s VP? Maybe, but…
