Domaine Chatelain
Saint-Laurent-L'Abbaye Pouilly-Fumé Sauvignon Blanc 2015
The Mrs. really likes this one, especially when she learned the cost. (Note: Her favorite White is Bordeaux Blanc, and there are plenty of similarities here). Classic aromas of hay, lemon juice, crushed rock and cat pee. More mouth feel and layers than expected - perhaps from lees aging - bright acid and underripe circus with pithy notes. Lemon and lime. Fresh. Feels like spring time. — 5 years ago

Domaine Olivier B.
Les Amidyves Côtes du Ventoux Grenache Blend 2017
Smells like a spiced pastry
Lively! Red stars dance across the tongue for only a meaty mingling moment, before the tannins start smacking every part of the mouth, up, down, left, right, Jab, Jab, Ka-pow! Those knock out tannins longer on and on.. and on..
Wish I had bought 2 bottles, this needs at least 5 years to relax those teen tannins.
I mean, don’t close your mouth for too long on these tannins, as they act like a vacuum and super glue. You’ll never get your jaws apart.. — 4 years ago

La Bohème Act Four Syrah Blend
A great dinner party red - not too easy to drink that you drink without really registering anything except “red wine” but not one you have to dry to decide whether you like or not. — 4 years ago
Le Clos du Caillou / Domaine du Caillou
Les Quartz Côtes du Rhône Red Rhone Blend 2015
The quality for price is outstanding. In 1936 “Caillou’s owner had no desire to join the governing ranks of anything, let alone a wine appellation. This brazen act excluded the estate from the AOC and essentially carved out a chunk of Châteauneuf-du-Pape‘s border. Today it continues to be an ‘unclassified’ section in what is otherwise some of the most prized vineyard land in the area“-Ian Cauble, master sommelier — 4 years ago

One of our absolute favorites. Light and living and just effervescent with lemon curd and clean starfruit and just enough acid to keep the structure together. Incredibly delicate and a well done balancing act to get these flavors to exist with just enough yeast to reflect the lees. Absolutely delightful.  — a month ago
