Pierre Sparr Schoenenbourg Riesling 2011, Ac Alsace Grand Cru
Alsace, France$22.95
Straw gold colour throughout. Still has a very tight nose - this wine could hold out for the medium term and still improve. Great pineapple and pear flavour, and enough acidity to be refreshing with a bit of bite. Delicious.

Probably picked up a bad bottle - first sniff smelled purely like sweaty feet. Was unfortunate but I had other bottles on hand to open.

Les Trois Couronnes 2014, Crozes Hermitage
Rhône, France$8.25
Great expression of the northern Rhone. Classic peppery, smoky nose with a bit of meat. I recently visited a few Domaines in Cote-Rotie, Condrieu, and Hermitage, and I was extremely pleased with this bottle. Wasn't expecting such a similar tasting experience at this price. Highly recommended!

Dr. Hermann From The Slate Riesling 2013, Qualitätswein
Mosel, Germany$17.95
Loved this bottle, sipped on it over the course of a week.
Pear, apple, and slight petrol nose, sweet finish with actually a bit of effervescence.

Feudi Salentini Papaveri Primitivo Di Manduria 2013, Dop
Puglia, Italy$16.25
Tons of jammy flavour with a tiny bit of meat. Very northern Rhone??? Tasted very similar to a bottle of 2006 Hermitage I recently tried, with slightly less body and length.
