Currently Ali and I are drinking and learning about the St. Laurent grape. Our favorite sommelier at The District first recommended a Roessler St. Laurent and it was truly amazing. He called the “masculine” Pinot Noir but to me it tastes like a Pino without the acidity and having the complexity of a Cab. Who knows the ones we have tried have been yummy.
Of course, there will be dogs out there same as with any variety, but its actually hard to find out which ones to buy. For exampl, you can’t even search for St. Laurent on the Wine Spector’s advanced search. What Ive been doing i going to K & L Wine merchant’s site and doing a search for St. Laurent and then cross referencing the wines with my Wine Ratings app or using mobile app (accessed through Safari Bookmark) I received with my Wine Spectator subscription. Way too labor intensive but until thre is more data out there re the variety ….
