FOOD & DRINK
Nugan Estate Manuka Grove Vineyard Durif
by Adrian Bryksa
I remember the day I first tried this wine and it was all I talked about with all my oenophile friends. I rushed out and bought as much as I could and stockpiled it in my cellar. Since then, many Merlots, Shirazes and Chardonnays have become between us.
FOOD & DRINK
Travaglini Gattinara Riserva
by Adrian Bryksa
Typically, this is a 90 + point rated wine from Wine Spectator. It is an excellent example of an outstanding medium bodied Nebbiolo from Northern Piedmont in Italy, delivering a slightly hard candy, floral bouquet with a orangish hue.
FOOD & DRINK
Esser Cellars Chardonnay

Coming out of the bottle, it exhibited a pale honey straw-ish color and the nose is delivered a bit of baked apple and honey along with some toasted oak, which almost makes it seem like apple pie.
