A very good choice when you are in the mood for a perfectly balanced mouthful of that herbal sweet bitterness of a characterful blanc. It has the grip, it has the lenght, but I had no seafood. What a shame! — 3 years ago
30 min woke up. It has lots of deep aroma. Black plum, blue and black, cherry and berry. Deep. One of the best among Liu dumon. 2018 @1710, xuaduo - Lazo, 220318-220323 — 3 years ago

2021/5/15 with pan-roasted skirt steak, sautéed broccoli and kale, etc. This is the first among these selections with an unmistakable, rich bottle bouquet. It has a dark, gamy character which is reminiscent of a Northern Rhône red - perhaps a Côte Rotie. Perhaps the character of 1999 is in play here. There’s still a strongly aromatic layer of fruit which reveals itself with air - strawberry coulis and crushed raspberries. — 4 years ago
Super dark and rich. Enjoyed it with steak but definitely better for deep winter / rich meats. Also: 15% ABV! — 8 months ago
2022/5/31-6/1 with ayu karaage, hachiku several ways, niku-dofu, etc. This is my favorite of the lower-priced Léa reds - there’s really nice acidity and flesh, and enough age to be fully open with hints of complexity but still with vibrant fruit. Really good on day 2 as well. — 3 years ago

Greta autumnal white wine for all the fall dishes! Mushroom, earthy notes, and spice. Very full bodied. — 6 months ago
