I am a chef in a restaurant. Sometimes I just add a few bottles in the wine order for myself, you know no tax! However, the sale never get it right. Yesterday, I tried to get a bottle of Dopff&Irion Riesling. He gave me Leon-bayer riesling.

I love Pax wines in general, but I have to say I was highly disappointed in the ‘05 Venus Rousanne. It was an over-oaked beast with petrol and perfume that overpowered the fruit to the point of annoyance. Also, way too much malo…there was no acid to speak of.

Every time I have ever ordered a zinfandel in Massachusetts, they bring me a white zinfandel.

My wife and I got married in the lovely Bay State, and even the catering manager at the inn where we held the reception had to be told that zinfandel was a red grape, and that, no, we didn’t want anything “blush” served at our wedding.
