Brut Réserve Champagne Blend
Off-putting style in what way? That is normally a consensus favorite at most champagne tastings.
Yes! Consensus “off putting”! From their website on this wine: “The 50 % reserve wines give an elegant nose : freshly baked brioche, roasted notes and ripe, sun-kissed fruits…” Perhaps the combination of the 50% Reserve wines used in this particular disgorgement does not suit my taste. I did not take back label pic on this either, so can’t offer you exact batch info. But, I was not alone in my experience, complete strangers shared this same sentiment during the tasting. Not an expert here, just not my style or at least this disgorgement. Cheers 🍾

Les Varennes du Grand Clos Chinon Cabernet Franc 2005
Holding up the best of a trio of sketchy old Loire reds. With air this reveals black currant, mesquite, tobacco, tomato leaf and slightest hint of raspberry. Still excellent but needs food — a month ago
