Sublime. Really fun plum note. Special vacation treat. — 4 years ago
A very unique wine. Needs time to open. Notes immediately of fresh raspberries then opens up more with notes of salt on tomato. — 5 years ago
Lately I’ve been opening lots of brightly colored fruity Pet Nats of the lightly fermented, softly carbonated category. Like wine’s version of Tepache. I prefer the Pet Nats with some filtration and yeast influence. Give me some crisp and textured bubbles. This Loire inspired Grolleau is more me - a pale rosey gold, muffled notes of candied watermelon, bitter grapefruit pith, and sweet strawberry. More like this please. — 6 years ago


Lively, red fruit, strawberry, little funk on end but not enough to diminish the pleasure. — 7 years ago
So elegant, so aromatic. Cherries, florals, funk. Light, expansive, resonant. — 5 months ago

Needed 2 hours to open up. Raspberry, cranberry fruit. Tart. Kind of deep pitched for a Burgundy. Not much in the way of tannins. Others on Cellartracker called this delicate. This bottle wasn’t at least compared to the 2013 Jean Tardy Gevrey Chambertin Champerrier I posted on just prior to this one. — 5 years ago
One of my favorites — 6 years ago

My buddy Ian brand coming correct. Sf chronicle wine maker of the year a few years back. Making a good name for our place Monterey. Listen to the bedrock podcast with Ian! It’s a good listen and the wine is super thoughtful. I can say im super thankful he and heather are keeping this going! Thank you heather brand for pouring and being the great host! Always gracious and kind. Ian and heather are bringing Monterey back up where it should be with the likes of Mark Chesebro (arroyo seco), tira nanza, russel Joyce and a few others. Big ups @Lee Lightfoot for letting me join you and Julie today. No doubt Carmel valley is on the rise again. Worth a visit! Contact me for appointments before summer — 5 years ago
