Convivial Wines
Domaine Belluard
Ayse Brut Methode traditionnelle Savoie Gringet
Convivial. Effervescent nose massage. Racy like a stockcar when opened then trailing off to cruising speed. Not serious, yet an intriguing party guest. Gets deeper after an hour. All slate white grape style. For acid heads. — 4 years ago
Giacomo Borgogno & Figli
Dolcetto d'Alba 2017
Delicious, juicy black fruit and a structured med- frame / bramble with a supporting acidity and crushed rock minerality / classic & humbly sophisticated, while also being pastoral & convivial / almost a cru beauj thing going on — 6 years ago

Château Grand-Portail
La Croix Blanche Bordeaux Red Bordeaux Blend 2016
In a French restaurant Convivial tried this Bordeaux and I really liked it. Strongish but smooth finish. Good fruit. Dark color. Highlight but the meal was excellent. — 6 years ago

Domaine Mathieu
Saje Châteauneuf-du-Pape Grenache Blend 2017
Had for G's 30th birthday celebration (a few days early) with Convivial takeout. Needed a little time to breathe; peppery at first but got fruitier with time. Delicious. ~$40 at Dvines. — 4 years ago
Château d'Yquem
Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 2008
So we drank this on a root day and it was really good but not outrageous especially for the price. Drinking at 10 years was also probably not the smartest decision 😬. But it was one of those rare convivial evenings where a dessert wine was the perfect finish! — 6 years ago
romo
Light bodied with saline but RS overpowers the terroir, unfortunately. — 6 months ago
