Domaine Rollin Père et Fils
Les Fichots Pernand-Vergelesses 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2010
A Burgundy with a wink to piemonte... pine tar, tobacco, leather, smoke... salty on the mouth, more tannic than expected. And that beautiful burgundy berry. Unique and beautiful. Super happy. — 9 months ago
Henri Prudhon & Fils
Cuveé Les Rouges-Gorges Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2014
So tightly wound, drinks more like a langhe Nebbiolo than a burgundy. Light, but tannic and tart. Even on the second day didn’t really open up much. It’s a lower priced burgundy but maybe it’s worth spending more, or alternatively spending less for a good langhe... — a year ago
Clos Fantine
Cuvee Courtiol Faugères Mourvedre 2016
Love the philosophy, can’t stand the product. I suppose when you go this non-interventionist you expect some flaws, but I found an intolerable level of Bret in this wine, covering anything that could have been good. I rarely pour out a bottle but we could only get through half of this one. — 6 months ago
Domaine d'Ardhuy
Les Chagnots Ladoix Pinot Noir 2015
Decent for the price but nothing amazing. Lovely and elegant, maybe a burgundy that feels 30% like a CA Pinot (In a good way if you’ll allow). If it was $15 a bottle I’d buy a case. — a year ago
Ronchi di Cialla
Friuli Colli Orientali Ribolla Nera 2016
Very light and dry. The only other schioppettino I’ve had is from the horrible Bressan; in comparison this one is almost uneventful. A little herby but none of that wonderful weird patchouli you get in the Bressan... maybe just a tiny bit if you really search for it. — a year ago

Really pleasant surprise form Armenia, by a French-trained American chef-turned-winemaker ✨ — 7 months ago
Anima Mundi
Noguer Baix M. Ancestral Macabeo 2019
Ripe pear on the nose, a hint of citrus on the finish, elegant and dry... overall a lovely wine — 9 months ago
Marcel Lapierre
Morgon Gamay 2017
Lovely balanced easy to drink yet complex gamay. Intense fruit (dark cherry jam) maybe something floral too. — a year ago
Azienda Agricola COS
Pithos Rosso Vittoria Nero d'Avola Frappato 2016
Light and acidic, bright but not too fruity. A little bit of bret. 12%. We served slightly cooled, with halibut and black truffle pasta... was a perfect pairing. I would say it is a little overpriced but a nice, simple, elegant wine. — 2 years ago

Lovely. Nutty with dried fruit vibes. — 5 months ago
