Wehlener Sonnenuhr Spätlese Riesling 2019

When Riesling is good it immediately shows, the sweetness is tangible but so is the acidic contrast which refreshes the palate there and again. Cheers. — 6 months ago

Domaine Alain Burguet

Chambertin-Clos de Bèze Grand Cru Pinot Noir 2008

A rich cardinal in colour. Red fruits - mainly cherry with sappiness and Sous Bois. Quite fruit driven on the medium plus bodied palate - sweetish - delicious. Finishing with fine savoury tannins. Inherent power which will see the last one consumed in a few years. I don’t drink Grand Crus on a regular basis but it’s nice to see the step up in quality when one does. Wonderful balance with wonderful persistence and longevity. — 4 years ago

Jean François Mérieau

L'Alliance des Générations Touraine Cabernet Franc Malbec

Vintage 2015 | 60 % Cabernet Franc 40 % Cot from vignes that are 30 to 50 years old. 18 months barrel aging, 8 months in bottle. 35 hl/ha. I decanted the wine 2 hours in advance. Medium transparency, cardinal red rim. Red currant and blackberries, full bodied with character, fine acidity. Drinks supple with a bitter touch. This is really good. Certainly for its modest origin. But you can’t say that - it seems - these days because dedicated winegrowers can be found everywhere. | Paired with ostrich stew. — 2 years ago

Sooo jealous! The fruit here comes from the private home farm of the Veritas winemaker. A distinct terroir east of Crozet. Cheers!
