Apricots she says… sweet and acidic — 9 months ago
Great mouth feel and a spicy undertone. Paired well with grilled whole Branzino on Easter and even held up w lamb rib chops. Don’t often drink Pinot noir but will seek this one out again in the near future. — 7 days ago
Actually Mourvedre 100%
I was recommended to try this over the Grenache that is also very good i was told but this wine had a smoother tannin and potentially i could served it chilled too.
..well, i didn't drink it chilled, but i see what my friend meant..i am learning to appreciate chilled reds up here, i realise that you cannot have big reds when it is particularly warm weather and i must admit it makes sense.
The wine is delicious btw
On the nose it has a floral violet scent that i deeply loved. It has a good crunchy fruit that varied from sour cherry to fuji apple to pomegranate. A lovely mineral character too.
Palate is crunchy, vibrant and smooth.
It is hard to detect the tannin which in a mourvedre is rare.
I guess it has been tamed pretty well.
However this is not a thin wine, it has its structure and a long finish.
Only 2650 bottles produced.
I had Edouard Maurisset with me on the road representing the Delaunay wines from Burgundy and he is business partner with Michael and Claire who are more local to McLaren Vale.
It is a great project.
We visited one of my customer and literally bumped in their wines.
That's how i met this wine.
Great discover. — 3 months ago
Bu avec Nat chez Ottavio — 19 days ago
A regional 100% Chard sourced mainly from Côte d’Or (the Côte de Beaune and the Hautes-Côtes de Nuits), and Mâconnais deemed as Edouard’s house signature and sensible price point. Truly “à la mode” Chard that combines freshness of citrus, lemon and orange, with elegance and subtle aromas of mandarine peel. Barely any of cream, but soft on the mid-range palate with a finish of hazelnut and an amazing dry and clean completion of baked pear layers. — a month ago
Scott@Mister A’s-San Diego
2021 vintage. Decanted and tasted after 5 minutes. Lighter color. Light-medium body. Intriguing nose. Plenty of spice on the back end and under the mid-palate tongue. Plenty of hints (camphor, raspberry, milk chocolate, clove, damp earth) but no solid commitments right off the bat. Felt like it would "gain a little weight" bodywise and it supposedly did after 25-30 minutes. 04.25.25. — 2 days ago
