Very approachable and easy drinking. Has a Nebbiolo aroma, and distinct tart dried cherry flavor. Medium tannins. The Barbarescos I've had are usually too astringent for me because they haven't aged, but this Langhe is similar in style and great as a younger wine. — 10 days ago

Good, but not a standout Muscadet. Characteristically lemon and saline. No seafood tonight, but went nicely with mesclun, red onion, radishes and thyme vinaigrette. Leftover tenderloin strips on top. 12% abv. — 21 days ago

Wow! This is by far the best Chablis I've had. Amazing white wine. Full at 14.5% abv, and superb with food. Had it with soy-marinated seared tuna steak, mesclun greens, tomatoes, scallions and miso-orange dressing. Great balance, acidity, complexity... everything you're looking for in a summer white. — 2 days ago

Great dry acidity with a depth of citrus flavors and subtle floral notes. Quite delicious with oven roasted cod, bell peppers, garlic and capers. Better with food than as an aperitif. — 10 days ago

I love this grape and region. I can't visit Swiss family this summer, but this wine takes me there. Limestone, restrained acidity, yet expertly balanced. Maybe the best Chasselas I've tried. Relatively light, and meant for apéro or fish. I had it with sushi, then the rest of the bottle with goat cheese and herb ravioli, blistered tomatoes, capers and pesto sauce. Both were great pairings 🙌 12% abv. — 7 days ago

9.0

Red fruits (Rosso!), a tad sweet but quite dry, earthy and tannic. Nicely aged, brownish deep red color. Deserves air, and very good once it opens up. Had it with pizza, but it would be great with any red-worthy meal. — 18 days ago

Outstanding 100% Pinot Blanc sparkler for Mama Day! Yeasty and very crisp. With herb-encrusted beef tenderloin, French potato salad and crudités in lemon dressing. — 22 days ago
