4439 GERARD SCHUELLER ALSACE GEWURZTRAMINER BILDSTOECKLE 2016 750ml 4828 FERMIER CABERNET DORSA CABERNET MITOS NIIGATA 2016 720ml 6169 MONTEVERTINE IGT ROSSO TOSCANA LE PERGOLE TORTE 2012 750ml
Bildstoeckle is one of the flagship of Gerard Schueller as well as Pfersigberg GC and Eichberg GC. Usually Bildstoeckle Gewürztraminer has lychee and apple flavours with crispy acidity, but this 2016 is a bit different. Thick, much concentrated, powerful and rich. Another face of Bildstoeckle. No doubt 2016 will enjoy long life.
 		Cabernet-Dorsa is a German grape varieties, hybrids between Cabernet Sauvignon and Dornfelder. Cabernet-Mitos is also from Germain, hybrids between Cabernet Sauvignon and Lemberger. Honda sources these grapes from contracted farmer in Yoichi, Hokkaido. Fermented together and aged in French oak barrels. Well polished fine texture(as same as other Honda's wines), beautiful transparency of fruits, brisk accent by spices. The 2012 Le Pergole Torte is brilliant. In fact, this is one of the best showings of the 2012 that I can recall. The flavors are bright, focused and pulsing with energy. Because of its mid-weight structure and not overly complex personality. AG94,RP93
