The 2013 Seneca Lake pinot - very, very lovely! Courtesy of the professor. I need a few bottles. Terrific wine!

Is it true that they filter exclusively with dog hair?

Some of these natural winemakers, man, they're really out there.

Oh, I get it. "Horse." The AVA standard, right.

Actually it's cow hair.

Always happy to shill someone else's wine. If anyone took notes, we should say something about the Italian fizzy Luca brought. I thought it was really good--and different.

I couldn't get past the sherried aspect of it.

 

[Jonathan Loesberg]

Yeah, Cole felt the same way. I considered it a feature.

Natural wine = goat hair.

Exactly

Is he in the states for an extended period or just visiting? I'd love to re-connect.

Just a flash visit with a local distributor (from which we were able to extract him for an evening); back in Italy now.
