Ken's Friends Recent Notes
The GSM's (grenache, syrah, mourvedre) that we featured at the Around Australia in 80 Sips event series this month were some of my favorites- particularly by Torbreck. Spice, dimension, without too much jam or pow.

Flavors of crisp green or golden apple and notes of lemon juice characterized this wine. A perfect pairing for almost all dishes at ourholiday lunch!

Sometimes the most memorable wines don't even break the bank. Such was the case this past Friday and this past year; Donnhoff riesling once again stole the show in a line-up of beautiful wines of all types, from many regions, at the French Laundry for my brother's 40th birthday celebration. Meyer lemon overtones were perfectly balanced by racy acidity and floral aromatics. DELICIOUS.

Beautiful earth, dark cherry, and nutty notes. Lovely Barolo. Has MANY more years in it!
