    2008 Scholium Project Naucratis

    My business partner, who gave me the two bottles, had the same experience as you. So enthusiastic was he, that he bought two cases of the wine. Based on his enthusiasm, i was looking forward to drinking the wines. But they were both just a mess. A year after buying the wine, he revisited...

    2008 Scholium Project Naucratis

    I agree with you on the ESJ and Scholium visits. I can't understand why Coturri garners some attention. The two bottles I have had were hot, disjointed, unbalanced and just plain undrinkable. What I am I missing?

    I just don't get Aligot

    Have liked the Mikulski. ( also my first Aligote) Would agree with Joel's notes. Only other one that I have had was a disappointment. De Moor most recent san soufre offering. ( has a phonetic spelling of Aligote on the label). Found it to be an acid bomb. Almost undrinkable...

    I need San Francisco help

    From what I understand, all of the nouveau ice cream joints (bi-rite, HS, Three-Twins) use the same base recipe. if that is the case, then it really comes down to what kinds of flavors you like. I wanted to to be wowed by HS's creative combinations, but just wasn't. Maybe I just like it...
