Sharp and vibrant old vines Muscadet from one of the top producers, and this vintage seems like it will be one of the better ones in recent years. think we have another two years of hard times ahead, maybe more. | | | | | | | BROOKLYN GUY LOVES WINE DECEMBER 3, 2008 By the Glass - 2005 Muscadet Edition 2005 was the vintage of the century in Bordeaux, the vintage of the millennium in Burgundy, the finest post-World War II vintage in the Rhône, and the greatest vintage in recent memory in the Loire. know you love Muscadet - what's your take on the 2005 vintage? Very rich and full for a Muscadet, but retains its varietal character. | BROOKLYN GUY LOVES WINE JANUARY 8, 2007 Rose Water There are well chosen wines from the Loire Valley, Burgundy, the Rhone, Bordeaux, Italy, Spain, New Zealand, Australia, and of course America. feel lucky to have this place close by, but I would travel if I had to - it definitely qualifies as a destination restaurant. Or the food is too bland, too salty, or improperly cooked. Sue me. | BROOKLYN GUY LOVES WINE MARCH 27, 2007 Notes From the Dressner Real Wine Attack Tasting Definitely a $15 beauty. 2005 Domaine de la Pepiere Muscadet Clos des Briords Vieille Vignes , $14 - old vine wine from the musc-master Marc Ollivier. All of his Muscadets were just lovely, but this is my favorite. hauled my butt into Manhattan (!) Packed already, and only 1:10 PM. Impossible in this venue. Just yummy. | BROOKLYN GUY LOVES WINE FEBRUARY 7, 2008 My Foray into Blind ID'ing Wine decided about 6 months ago that I wanted to out-do these people, the folks who taste blind and confidently declare "this is definitely an Opus One, and the slightly lower concentration makes me think it's an 02. Wine 2 - Burgundy shaped bottle, deep impression on the bottom, small rectangle shaped label.It No Doubt about it - Opus One." | | | | | | | | |
