Pine, yes indeed. But I love pine, our neighbour put in a giant pine in the backyard, and I love it!
I'm looking forward to my next bottle. Sits well with lamb sausage and grilled veggies, just as the Greeks intended. — a year ago

Viognier with a Vibe. This wine is basically a peachy daydream in a glass. It kicks off with a burst of freshness and acidity that’s unusually lively for a Viognier, like it had a double espresso before showing up. Think white fleshy peach doing yoga in a field of jasmine and chamomile, aromatic, but not the kind that slaps you in the face with a bouquet. Just enough to make you feel fancy.
Then comes the minerality: it starts with a whisper on the nose and ends with a full-on salty surprise mic drop on your palate. Like licking a rock at Hanlon's Point (but in a good way, really). Citrus? Oh yes. Lemon juice, lemon zest, maybe even lemon doing cartwheels. And a cameo from nectarine just to keep things juicy.
It’s got drive, it’s got energy, and it’s got texture. Like a wine that knows how to dance and write a killer short story. That light bitterness at the back? It’s the plot twist that keeps you turning the page… or, in this case, cracking another bottle. — a year ago
Exceptional Pineau d'Aunis. White pepper, tannins, dryness while being bright and effervescent on the tongue. Just the right amount of Sharpie Marker to make it a perfect drop. — a year ago

Delicious Maréchal Foch! Dark but not too jammy, blackberry, black cherry and earthy characters, spice, smoke, and a lingering vanilla undertone. Leathery, a little like licking a saddle. Get it while you can; this wine is not foching about! — a year ago
