Friends, don’t invest in wine. And don’t let your friends invest in wine either. But no matter what, definitely don’t give your hard earned money to a so-called wine fund. Read my latest rant on Vinography or find the link in my bio.

Blessed to have generous friends who also have exquisite taste in wine. The crusty bottle is a 1955 Hospices de Beaune “Cuvée Nicolas Rolin” Beaune Premier Cru, the Gravner is the ‘98 Breg - quite possibly the best orange wine in the world, IMO, and then there’s Selosse, which my wife upon her first taste turns to look at me and says, “why didn’t you tell me Champagne could taste like this?” #nowigottabuysomeselosse #dinnerpartywines #orangewine #oldburgundy #winefriends #pinchme #charmedlife

Some of the wines I brought to share with friends for Friendsgiving tonight.

I can’t tell you how many of these bottles I’ve opened, but the answer is more than a lot. I sound a bit like a broken record, but I’ll say it again, we’ll-aged Spätlese is the single greatest bang-for-buck in the wine world. Anyhow, these HB Riesling bottles range from crystalline and perfect to slightly musty. This one was sort of in the middle, with bright Asian pear, mandarin orang,and honeysuckle fading to a parchment and wet pavement tinged with a hint of musty closet. Sweetness has become mostly aromatic, with the wine reading almost dry at this point. 1997 Haubs-Barzen “Zeltinger Himmelreich” Riesling Spätlese, Mosel, Germany.
