    My Today

    A drink with Aldo Sohm / The internationally acclaimed sommelier on the truth about pairing, his new wine bar, and why now is the time to stock up on Northern Rhône

    Aldo Sohm, wine director at New York’s Le Bernardin, won the ‘Best Sommelier In The World’ competition in 2008, but his lofty reputation is based more on his years working the floor of the restaurant, gently guiding diners through thousands of bottles to pair with chef Eric Ripe...

    RAW OYSTERS WITH PIERRE PÉTERS CHAMPAGNE

    This year, to me, has been about finding classic and stand-out expressions from a wide spectrum of producers. Now that the holiday season is in full swing, I’ve come around to the pairing I’ll be looking for at every event and gathering: I love oysters and champagne. A glass of crisp (as always) and slightly austere (the particular characteristic I’ve been looking for) Blanc de Blanc Champagne is wha...

"The flagship of the 6 hectare Domaine René Engel is a wonderful Clos Vougeot from near the top of the Clos, along with a very fine Grands Echezeaux. These were supported by a third grand cru, Echezeaux, premier cru Vosne Romanée Les Brulées and a delicious village Vosne Romanée."

"Noël Verset, whose perseverance laboring in the steep, granite vineyards of Cornas, in the Rhône Valley of France, helped the Cornas appellation survive to be discovered by a new generation of wine lovers.

During Mr. Verset’s 75-year career as a vigneron, Cornas evolved from a little-known backwater to one of the world’s most renowned regions for red wines made from the syrah grape. By the turn of the millennium, his wines, made in tiny quantities, were being celebrated as among the purest expressions of what Cornas had to offer."

I love Champagne from Chartogne Taillet. I like old Dom Perignon — it’s a large house but very consistent, ‘73, ‘75, ’69. I also like Roederer a lot. Definitely Burgundy, white and red. 82 Leflaive Montrachet; ‘78 is fine too.

Seventy-one La Tache without a doubt, is one of the greatest red Burgundies ever made. Egon Muller ‘71 Riesling kabinett. A trockenbeerenauslese would be cool too.
