Great CdP.
Intense purple color with a little Garnet.
Pleasure of aroma. Black and red fruits, a little plum, a little seasoning, a little candy .. lovely.
Medium to full body, powerful, round, floral, fruity, medium tannins, so is the acidity, long and delightful finish.
A delicious wine, paired with chocolate and heartfelt wishes for the new year.
I loved it

What a lovely Syrah comes from the north of the Rhône Valley, from my favorite St. Joseph.
🍇The domain extends over the longest river stretch in the north of the Rhône. The nature of the soil is very reminiscent of the neighboring Hermitage: granite, with the addition of sand and gravel, the east-facing slope receives less sunlight than the Hermitage, which results in slightly fewer berries, but it knows how to create competition for the Hermitage, Cote Rotie or Cornas.
🍇It usually doesn't need much time in the bottle compared to Cote-Rotei or Hermitage, and the prices are more affordable, which is why it's a particular favorite of mine.
🍇 It has power, infinite tannins run through it, ripe and delicate, perfect seasoning and lots of harmony. It has character, it has depth, full body, 14% alcohol, it has aromas and flavors of smoke, refined barrel, herbs and lots and lots of red and black fruit, maybe raspberry, maybe black cherry, maybe plum.
🍇The finish is soft, long and caressing.
🍇 Elegant, young, full of life, opened before its time, but I really loved it.
Cheers ! 🌿🥂

Nice wine for every day.
🌿 Deep purple color, intense aroma, reminds me of cherry chocolate in brandy. Oak is very noticeable and so are spices, especially cinnamon.
Medium body, 13.5%, M- tannins, and high acidity that upsets the balance on the palate. Not a long finish.
Nice wine for the price, but I used to like it more ...

French Malbec from Cahors, so young but already pleasant to drink.
It takes time, until it is released, and then lovely aromas of fine black fruit, and of oak.
Medium body, 13.5%, slight acidity, medium tannins and not long finish.
An uncomplicated wine, but delicious, great for the price.
I am increasingly learning to love the wines that come from Cahors.

Great wine from Argentina.
The kind of wines that already in the pouring stage you know are going to be perfect. The heavy and beautiful bottle, the wonderful color, dark red, almost black with the sensual foam ..
A little "heavy", massive , a bit oaky aroma, a hint of twenty years of aging in oak barrels, a lot of cherries, a lot of black fruit, later spices I love so much.
Full body, 14%, M acidity, M+ tannins, and long finish.
A very tasty and harmonious wine, like its name.

A lovely Riesling from the Columbia Valley, U.S.
Pleasant aroma, developing, slightly sweet, lots of honey, a little butter, orange fruit, maybe apricot, maybe light raisins.
Light to medium body, low alcohol, good acidity mixes with the honeyed sweetness, and impressive finish.
Can wait with it longer, time has done it good, but I think this is its right time.
Lovely, tasty, my wife loved it, who needs more:))
