Just a note the new K vintners are in. I have the creator, el jefe and the big deal. great press and not overly pricy for what you get.
yesterday tried some things.revisited some things
Chateau Marjosse White Bordeaux 06 Very mineral and tart..great with shellfish. a blend of sauv blanc and semilion. from the entre-deux-mers which translates to between two seas but its really two rivers..those wacky french.
Robert Pecota Kara's Vineyard Cab 03 from Napa the wine was good but showing what the vintage is about. upfront fruit. not terribly exciting but you get your moneys worth. he names his wines after his kids. kara is a daughter there is also andrea's his dessert wine. there was a stevens merlot but he must have disinherited him or something. Anyway it will be around 30 on the shelf.
From JK winesk who specialize in Italian I tried a new white. Ciarea which means welcome in Italian. made from Cortese grape which is what Gavi is made from. An interesting thing happened when tasting this wine, when sipping the wine it was smooth and slightly mineral. when spitting the wine out it was reminding me of a prosecco, a little bitter and acidic. so when you drink this one besure not to spit. very light enjoyable on a patio .
