Graves Red Bordeaux Blend 2014

Stefan Dolhain

9.0

This estate was bought in 1988 buy Jean-Michel Cazes (Lynch Bages and more recently Haut-Batailley) and sold in 2017 to the Balland family (Baret). 50% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Cabernet Franc. Aged in used Lynch Bages barrels. This 2014 is in a very good place now, but should age well for a few more years. Fresh and elegant, with typical Graves spiciness. Not the most complex but a very solid and seductive effort for the vintage. — 4 years ago

9.0

Sun striking the elixir, a rainbow of gold and straw in the glass.

Melon, limestone, and grapefruit rind in the nose.

Subtle, slight carbonation and an ease in drinkability.

Lemon zest, yellow zucchini, grapefruit, and the essence of Mandarin oranges balance for a pleasurable drinking experience. Great with 1000 day aged gouda and cuts the heat of mango habanero cheddar nicely. — 4 years ago

Les Beaux Jours Coteaux du Giennois Pinot Noir - Gamay Blend 2022

Bob McDonald

9.0

The 4th wine in the degustation with Byron and Paulina. A 50/50 blend of Pinot Noir and Gamay from the Loire Valley of all places. A great wine to serve blind to MW and MS students. I recall strawberry and red berry notes in general with quite fluid tannins. So easy to drink. I can’t recall the matching dish but it was a perfect match - duck was involved. — 9 months ago

@Peter van den Besselaar Yes Peter, the matching degustation wines at this restaurant were very new and unusual. The partner of the chef was a French woman from Bordeaux who was our sommelier. The chef was an Australian who spent 7 years working in France in Michelin rated restaurants where he met the Somm. A great partnership

How 🥰 lovely

Byron Hewett

I thought that this was excellent. 50/50 Gamay and Pinot Noir. Unusually for my experience with Passetoutgrains from Burgundy, this blend seemed to be Pinot Noir dominant. A beautiful match with the duck.

Savoie Mondeuse 2017

Anthony Lombardi

9.1

This is a unique take on Mondeuse. Lighter bodied with tart acidity & chalky tannins. Red fruited with some cool blueberry notes across the mid palate. A very exciting new producer in the Savoie. Very good. — 4 years ago
