Château La Gaffelière

Dame de Gaffelière Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Red Bordeaux Blend 2019

Textbook #rightbankbordeaux - a riper youthful style, black/blue fruit on nose, some cigar box, earthy notes. Quite approachable palate, of course nicely balanced acidity, firm tannins. This would be fantastic in a decade but lovely wine to drink on our 15th wedding anniversary this night. Great bottle price second wine from an eminent #stemiliongrandcru estate offered at one of our favorite Houston restaurants. — 2 years ago

Domaine Guillemarine

Picpoul-de-Pinet Picpoul Blanc 2023

An abundantly crispy, well-textured citrus scented, and lemony zingy driven, palpable floral notes with hints of ripe Quincy pear. Bone dry, eminent acidity on the palate. Great summer wine that pairs exceptionally with seafood, veggies dishes with creamy sauce, or even raw fish like sashimi and sushi. Never disappoints! — 2 months ago

Crystallum

Clay Shales Hemel en Aarde Ridge Chardonnay 2019

My first time trying a wine from the Finlayson brothers of Crystallum, one of the Cape’s pre-eminent producers of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from, principally, the Hemel-en-Arde. The Clay Shales is a world-class Chardonnay from one of the best sites in the region at an altitude of 300m and within sight of the ocean.

Louis Bouillot

Blanc de Noirs Crémant de Bourgogne Brut Eminent Pinot Noir

Very Champagne like! Pinot Noir Blend from Burgundy! Light golden color, fine bubbles with a light creamy mousse and aromas of fresh fruit with floral scents. On the palate red berry and cherry flavors with nice underlying sweetness. Dryer than most Cremants I tasted. Lingering finish with lively acidity, good balance ending with fruit and slight yeast tang. Excellent value as a Champagne alternative. — 10 months ago

Not Dijon 777. Ribbon Ridge Ridgecrest Vineyard.
Bought at Eminent Domaine 10/23 $65. Subtle aromas. Smooth start to finish, especially once it had time to breathe.
