Your host is/was Michael Kane of Neil Rosenthal Merchants.
Ooops... As I was standing with one of our loyal followers of our Facebook and our Blog, it suddenly occured to me that I had forgotten to post it today. Michael Kane is still here for a little while and is a wealth of knowledge and passionate about his portfolio. If you are in the area, the lineup is great and the man pouring the wines also terrific.
Bisson Glera N.V. $19.99
This lightly sparkling wine is particularly distinctive as the winemaker insists on producing our cuvee in a bone-dry style. The Prosecco is bottled early to maintain its freshness and is released in the early months of the year following the harvest.
Monsecco Vespolina 2010 $19.99
Tons and tons of spicy black pepper, earth, sandalwood, sottobosco and both deep black and bright red cherry aromas, the wine has lovely weight and richness. There is indeed a pronounced streak of acidity, but it is in lovely balance with the generous fruit and well structured tannins.
Cheveau Macon Fuisse 2010 $21.99
The village of Fuisse is known to yield some of the greatest white wines in the Maconnais. Planted in soils of limestone and clay, these 40 year old vines yield a white burgundy with a rich, generous texture and clean minerality.
Geoffroy Gevrey Chambertin 2009 $39.99
A classic Gevrey sourced from multiple small parcels (covering more than four hectares) throughout the village which enables the wine to capture the true nature of this grand appellation; the youngest vines for this cuvée are 25 years of age with the oldest being 80 years old (calculated as of 2011). Rich, yet graceful, this Gevrey shows the wild berry fruit and charming rusticity that are the hallmarks of true Gevrey Chambertin.
Harrys Wine and Liquor Market offers: good value, a wide selection, and personal, attentive service.
