50/50 Pinot Noir / Chardonnay blend disgorged Oct 2022. This a champagne where the grapes of the blend each had the opportunity to strut their stuff. Scents of almonds , croissant, baked apple and lemons put a smile on my face. On the palate berries show up to fight the citrus. Young , with the acid levels I like. If I had to bet, this is a champagne that will benefit from age and gain in complexity. — a month ago
Still showing a lot of tannic and acidic structure, but enough fruit to keep it in check once it had a few hours of air, youthful still, and brawny. — 2 months ago
This is another terrific Napa red from the problematic 2020 vintage.
Purple in color with a short purple rim.
Full-bodied with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with nice complexity.
This Napa Merlot is still young, and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly, but already enjoyable, even by itself.
Wine Enthusiasts 96 points.
Nicely balanced and delicious. Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years.
A blend of 68% Merlot, 27% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot. Aged for 20 months in (55% New) French Oak barrels.

Concentrated fruit, soft, and a bit of spice -
Some of the best value CdR out there, sourcing fruit from around Southern Rhône!! Jean Louis Chave expertise at an entry-level price.
This was a young wine but 2022 was a good year: Extreme drought vintage resulted in lower yields and concentrated, freshly acidic wines. — 3 days ago
