Skin fermented Pinot Gris. Nice heft and some herbaceous notes to complement the berries and tropical fruit. But for $50+ retail? Nah — 23 days ago
This was a by-the-glass favorite at the Loire property where we stayed. Biodynamic Pinot d’Aunis. Lots of wild red berries complicated by earthy, peppery and floral tones — a month ago
Fresh, flinty, green apple, lime/grapefruit, flowers and dried grass. Refreshing, great complement to a rich chicken and morels in vin jaune sauce — a month ago
Consistent with last bottle from a few years ago. In a great spot. Softer, rounder and more fruit forward than the Sonoma coast bottling tried side by side — 15 days ago
Gorgeous chenin, totally clean, stony and pure — 25 days ago
Bright, soft, unadorned, vibrant and lifted red fruits, perfect unfussy bistro complement to an entire goddamn duck — a month ago
More delicate and lifted than the Anderson Valley bottling tasted alongside, despite clocking in at slightly higher alcohol — 15 days ago
Loved this. Blackberries, blackcurrants, peppery and fresh — 25 days ago
Wine is not effing around. Big wine from a warm vintage but not jammy. Massive smoked bacon, game, thyme, polished, well integrated oak, red and black fruits, cassis, violets. Enjoyed over several days — a month ago
