Friday Betsy made beef filet in a broth with soba, ginger, spinach, topped with a 5m10sec egg. Wine was the 2017 Bart Marsannay Rose. Fresh, red and black cherry, orange zest. Bright and mineral finish. B+
Saturday was turkey tikka masala, eggplant (bhaingan bharta) & rice; wine was the 2015 Richter “Wehlener Sonnenuhr” Riesling Kabinett. Light and fairly dry, very subdued (shut down?), not much happening. I liked a lot before. B-
Stew’s had dry scallops on sale, but were out when I arrived. So Sunday dinner was lobster tails, lentil/cauliflower/paneer salad, and a green salad. The 2016 Domaine du Roc des Boutires Pouilly-Fuisse was a nice fuller expression of Maconnais, chalky with just a hint of oak, ripe pear with a good acidic backbone. B+
Grade disclaimer: I'm a very easy grader, basically A is an excellent wine, B a good wine, C drinkable. Anything below C means I wouldn't drink at a party where it was only choice.Furthermore, I offer no promises of objectivity, accuracy, and certainly not of consistency.
