Pyramid Valley Vineyards
Field of Fire Chardonnay 2015
This is wonderful. Full and round. Mouth filling with great body and length. I note it is now quite expensive which is no surprise. Last of the 2015 in my cellar. — 4 years ago
Domaine du Château de Melin
Saint Romain Pinot Noir 2014
Actually bought this directly from the Chateau when we stayed at their excellent B and B. This is about as good as a Maranges gets! Just had with roast pork. Excellent . Juicy — 4 years ago
Dominio de Punctum
Amor Amor Oak Aged Tempranillo Petit Verdot
Non vintage. Never would have got the Tempranillo. Very average indeed. Paid £13 in Norwich market. Worth much less. Not impressed at all. — 5 years ago
Château Thivin
Les Griottes de Brulhié Côte de Brouilly Gamay
Bought six bottles. This was the fifth. Each one a disappointment. Sour. Backward fruit. Too acidic. Normally I like Beaujolais but sorry to say not on this occasion. Mistake. — 3 years ago
Domaine Patrick Javillier
Cuvée Oligocène Bourgogne Blanc Chardonnay
Always have this in cellar. Never fails to impress. Like another reviewer I believe this is easily 1er Cru quality. Lovely balance of fruit and minerality. Low in oak ie not buttery for a Meursault. — 4 years ago
Domaine Chavy-Chouet
Les Folatières Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Chardonnay 2011
Fantastic wine. Second bottle. First was oxidised sadly. Took it back to the merchant Imperial Wine Company in Bungay uk who replaced it for free! Had it with scallops with chilli dressing followed by hake with garlic butter. Heaven! Deep yellow. Honeyed complex with hint of mineralogy. Long and rounded. Very very good. Will buy some more.? — 4 years ago
Domaine Michel Lafarge
Raisins Dorés Bourgogne Aligoté
Can’t beat it for a little treat at home with chicken or fish. A must have in the cellar. Excellent value. One day we will be paying a lot for this! — 3 years ago
Domaine Michel Lafarge
Raisins Dorés Bourgogne Aligoté 2017
Don’t let it be known but Aligote is the great understated wine of Burgundy. Let’s keep it amongst ourselves so the price stays reasonable! Tempted to give it a 9. Cracking stuff. Better than the Comte Armand. — 4 years ago
Didier et Pascal Picq
Chablis Dessus Carriere
Not a typical Chablis to my mind. Yes a hint of green in the colour but lower in mineralogy and that element of flint. Nevertheless a lovely wine with peachy fruit and decent body and length. Think more southern Burgundy. I would definitely buy again at this price point. — 4 years ago
Maurice Meyer
light and pleasant. No depth but reasonable fruit. Like the other commentator I have just drunk it with roast pork. Not bad for everyday. — 3 years ago
