Vallée d'Aoste Gamay 2020
A rare gamay disappointment, and I’ve enjoyed this producer before. Sorry, @Romain Fitoussi — a month ago

Domaine des Tourettes Hermitage White Rhone Blend 2012
Some wood on the nose. Light weight at first but this spreads it’s wings over the course of a few days, becoming quite beautiful. Gains a really nice volume and mineral bite. — a month ago
Laherte Frères
Ultradition Extra Brut Champagne Chardonnay
Half old school and new school. Lemony, lean, clean with mouthwatering finish. I prefer a little sweeter sparkling. 60% Meunier, 30% Chardonnay, 10% Pinot Noir. Dosage 4.5g/L disgorged 6/2021. WHW — 22 days ago

Invitation Brut Champagne Blend
Lemon drop champagne. Great stuff. Ridiculous acid, so nice. Great wine to have around for any occasion. — 15 days ago

Les Bessards Hermitage Syrah 2003
A nose dominated by lait cru cheese, French to be sure, that was bizarre and enticing at the same time. All 3 of us agreed that it wasn’t brett or oxidized, just cheese. Beyond the nose was a velvety panoply of light stewed red and black fruit, some pepper and bacon notes. Really nice and fun to drink would not cellar longer. — 24 days ago

Peppery fresh and perfumed with lavender, crushed wild berries and rose, the 2020 Torrette makes a wild first impression. It’s texturally deep and almost salty in character, with gobs of tart red and black currants under an air of violet inner florals. Residual acids keep the expression lively and mouth watering through the finale as the 2020 finishes with hints of licorice and a dash of sour citrus. (Eric Guido, Vinous, June 2022)
