impressed w/ @nostalgiawines #okanagan #merlot! Merlot treated w/respect; the weight of a warm vintage in St Emilion; cigar box/plum tart aromas giving sway to crisp black currant acid,full chalky tannin. imminently drinkable now (quick decant) 91+ points,Excellent Value #bcwine

A classic; @mfvwines 2019 is resplendent.A kaleidoscope of cherry blossoms/cocoa nib/fine cigar tobacco/red meat. Full/young acid bursting w/life, med+chewy tannin already integrating seamlessly. A palate that matches & evolves the bouquet. #premiercru BC; 94 points #buythisnow

Grabbed a coffee and went to where the rivers meet. #GoodFriday #cariboo

The 2018 @rustwine #okanaganvalley #syrah is another triumph! Likened to sultry #chateauneufdupape; cherry-raspberry tart/wild roses/warm earth/worn leather, brisk/full acid, full/chewy/chalky tannin. Destined for amazing cellaring; 93 points, $35++, #buynow #bcwine

[kristof gillese @astudentofwine]

The @harperstrail #chardonnay is a competitive example of #chablis style; stainless steel maturation results in an austere yet elegant lemon zest/peonie/jasmine/green apple kaleidoscope. Chalky mineral tones; medium length finish. 90+ points, $20+ CAD, Excellent Value! #bcwine

I need your help Twitter and Reddit... let’s blow this up like $GME #BellLetsTalk

[kristof gillese @astudentofwine]

My vote for one of the best #cabfranc in BC! @Deserthillswine tense red currant acid drives a full/young palate of wild herbs/scrub brush/Russian tea. Gravelly/full tannin predict long cellaring potential. FAB w/tonight’s slow-cooked brisket, sun-dried tomato & Parmesan gnocchi

[kristof gillese @astudentofwine]

#gratitude @thedrinkslistca for reintroducing me to @McWattersWine #chardonnay ! gracious/supple; like classic Beaune... full bodied w/judicious oak, baked pear/nougat/quince/dandelion notes. Immense length to the palate; should cellar for years! 93+ points, Excellent Value

[kristof gillese @astudentofwine]

#bcwine : 2018 @mfvwines “Old Block/McLean Creek” is a triumph. Stunning display of #premiercru Pommard-like intensity; bursting w/cassis jelly/wild herbs/forest floor/Chanterelles & Shiitake. Accessible full/young acid. Full/young/chewy tannin. 93+ points, cellars 20 years
