He was truely one of a kind and he is missed and will be missed until we meet him again. Sometines we forget, but you brought back memories that I had locked away, and I remember almost every one of those events as if they were yesterday. Thanks for being who you are and for the words.

By the way I have a business & want gift wine club membership to my clients. One of my friends suggested Celebration Wine Club in California .He said it is one of the best wine clubs. They deliver gift in quite good manner. They wrap, pack, and ship outstanding wines beautifully without extra cost, and they enclose a card with personal message. I think it is the best idea, what do you guys say about them?

Thanks for reading and posting a comment. Too bad you won’t get to see it. There are issues with some places listing sparkling wine as Champagne. We don’t have issues with methode champenoise on the label but when I do see it, I know it was done with care!

Thanks for taking the time to read and post. Could not agree with you more about Miguel. Such a great question. The next time I see him, I will be sure to ask.

Miguel is such an awesome wine maker. Reading this post I forgot to ask him how he was able to make such a delicious bubbly at only 15 bucks, its just ridiculous. Cheers!

Thanks for reading and for taking the time to write. This truly was a special wine that Anthony made. To make this bone dry when he could have gone desert is a little hard to understand. In the long run, I think he made the right decision. I plan on picking up a few more of these and see how it evolves over time.

I think the Botyrtus part of the wine is one that people find it hard to understand, but when they do, I think they appreciate it even more!

Thanks for reading and thanks for taking time to post. This was one of my favorite Riesling’s from 2010. I have a few left and I would like to see how it ages and with it being under screwcap, it should be very interesting.

Cheers!

I have recently enjoyed this wine and it is HUGE. I thought this was a skin fermented wine, at least you know, extended skin contact, but wow. A botrytis grape made bone dry. Thanks for posting this.
