Jurancon
2001 Charles Hours “Cuvee Marie” Sec $15 –This full-bodied wine had some crème’ brulee character that was good without being sweet. Persimmons and cotton candy make this wine seem really complex. This is more like the glass on the top and the fire of crème brulee. There’s some sulfur present too. Last tasted 9/17/07 Drink now-2015

Wine and Waves

I'm lucky to be a 31-year-old surf punk that gets to sample rare wines like the 1922 Pol Roger, the 1959 Petrus and the 2001 D.R.C. Richebourg--that doesn't mean those wines are always good, or worth the price. Since I've worked as a sommelier (in Monterey, CA) for high-end restaurants like Casanova, the Sardine Factory, and Marinus, I've honed my palate and I can choose a good bottle that won't break the bank. When I have enough time and money, I like to travel with my girl Lindsay Jackson to places with great wine and waves. I'm a certified sommelier (Court of Master Sommeliers) and am available to drink wine. Call: 831-521-8606 or e-mail: pwetterau@gmail.com
