TN: BarmesBuecher Hengst Riesling 2001 and some others by them
Barmes-Buecher advertises itself as growing their wines bio-dynamically. I'd appreciate any illumination on what this may mean. In any case, their wines have appeared at a discount compared to...

WHITE WINE - VIN BLANC - VINO BLANCO - VINO BIANCO Paarl Heights 2003 Chenin Blanc, Afrique du sud - 12.95$ Very inviting honey and beeswax aromas, dressed with a golden color and greenish reflections due to its youth. Good minerality and grapefruit emanations. The acidity and spongy taste form a duo of a very pretty balance. A superb freshness for less than 13$. Doté d'une couleur dorée avec des reflets verdâtres dû à sa jeunesse, le nez est très invitant avec des notes de cire d'abeille et de miel. Une bonne minéralité et des effluves de pamplemousse. En bouche, l'acidité et le moelleux forment un duo d'un très bel équilibre. Une superbe fraîcheur, bouche grbutte et ronde pour moins de 13$. Dotado con un color dorado con reflejos verdosos debido a su juventud, la nariz es muy invitante con notas de cera de abeja y miel. Una buena mineralidad y efluvios de pomelo. En boca, la acidez y lo esponjoso forman un duo de un muy bonito equilibrio. Una magnífica frescura por menos de 13$. Aromi molto invitanti della cera d'api e del miele, vesbreasti con un colore dorato e riflessioni verdastre dovuto a la sua gioventù. Buona mineralita e emanazioni del pompelmo. L'acidità e il gusto spugnoso formano un duo di bel equilibrio. Una freschezza "superb" per meno di 13$.

RED WINE - VIN ROUGE - VINO ROJO - VINO ROSSO Brusco dei Barbi 2002 Toscane, Italie - 15.40$ The red ruby of this clear and limpid wine makes it one of the most inviting. A nose of black cherry, plum, spice and beautiful balsamic notes confirms us the red mediterranean origins. Flexible and ready to drink but will hold the road for 2 or 3 years. Good persistence, a very honest product. One of a beautiful quality-price in my opinion this year. Le rouge rubis de ce produit clair et limpide fait de celui-ci un vin des plus invitant. Un nez de cerise noire, de prune, d'épice et de belles notes balsamiques nous confirme un rouge originaire du bbuttin méditerannéen. L'attaque en bouche est souple, il est prêt à boire mais tiendra la route 2 ou 3 ans encore. Bonne persistance, produit des plus honnête. Un des beaux rapport qualité-prix à mon avis cette année. El rojo rubí de este producto claro y límpido hace de éste un vino de lo más que invitante. Una nariz de cereza negra, ciruela, especia y bonitas notas balsámicas nos confirma a un rojo originario de la cuenca méditerannéen. El ataque en boca es flexible, está listo para beber pero tendrá la ruta 2 ó 3 años màs. Buena persistencia, producto de lo más honesto. Uno de la bonita relación calidad-precio en mi opinión este año. Il rosso rubino di questo vino puro e limpido lo rende uno dei più invitante. Aroma del ciliegio dolce, prugna, speze e di note balsamici li conferma il rosso di origine mediterraneo. Flessibile e pronto per bere ma terrà la strada per 2 o 3 anni. Buona persistenza, un prodotto molto onesto. Uno di bella qualità-prezzo nel mio parere quest'anno.
