Franck et Olivier Mousset

Clos Saint Michel Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2021

Ripe red fruit, dark cherry, medium bodied with a fairly bright acidity. Plenty of leather, some oak, and hints of a funky earthiness. Would go well with a ripe blue cheese. Lively pairing with a ribeye and sweet potatoes. Would do well aging for a few more years to mellow the acidity. — 9 months ago

Saint-Joseph Le Passage Syrah 2018

Saturated and fairly rich, but not out of balance. Needs a hearty braise or something wintery. — 2 years ago

Domaine Tour Saint-Michel

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2003

Quite pale in color after 21 years. Very port wine like. Was too busy for detailed notes. Winner of the evening. — 10 months ago

Clos Saint Michel

Châteauneuf-du-Pape White Rhône Blend 2022

Bright gold. Abundant nose of baked apricot. Echoed in the full palate which adds orange rind, dark peach, and a slight hint of stony mineral. Medium acidity; just enough to keep it food friendly. Otherwise it's nicely rich in the mouth and slides smoothly into the lengthy, palate-continuing finish. Rich seafood and poultry dishes are the call to order here, especially with cream sauces. A really complex white at a decent price for the appellation. Drink now through 2025. — 2 years ago

Domaine Michel Noëllat

Nuits-Saint-Georges Pinot Noir 2019

Dark fruit for days but focused and weightless. Still a baby compared to the ‘18. The last glass 9 hours after opening was the best. — 7 months ago

La Ronde Arbois Pupillin Ploussard 2022

Wish I had the patience to cellar this but it’s brilliant already. So unique, incredible almost grainy texture and mouthfeels. Sappy and vibrant on the one hand but deep and savoury. Lovely stuff. — 10 months ago
