Frétoy Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc 2018

Solid Sancerre, faintly grassy, nice lemony fruit, good acidity, medium-long finish, very good, though I will again admit I’ve always preferred this producer’s Pouilly-Fume!! — a month ago

Their P-F’s are indeed good! Love Loire Sauvignon.

We are identifying this wine.

Bee on the nose. Lisa. Heavy body and salty at the end. Nice — 3 years ago

Pouilly Fume Genetin 2017

This is an intensely flinty, minerally SB. No grassy, cat pee elements. But not a heckuva lotta fruit either. Mouthfilling and intense, bone dry. Good acids. — 6 years ago

Corton Bressandes Pinot Noir 1966

This was a super fun contribution from my birth year bro @romo. Bright garnet in the glass, a slight funk bouquet of sweaty bramble and ample cherry fruit and licorice. This is totally all there but we consumed it so quickly it’s tough to tell if it would have faded as the night progressed. — 7 years ago

2018 Fall dinner for the Confrerie St Etienne.

Had no idea this type of dessert wine existed. Comes from the Rasteau region of southern France. 100% Grenache. There is definitely a typical spice note to the finish which I always get with Grenache. Grilled strawberries and cherries jubilee. Very unique dessert wine.

Arelles Pouilly Fumé Sauvignon 2022

Another stellar rendition of this cuvée. Nose has a green herbal/weedy note, but leavened by some flinty minerality and some deep gooseberry fruit. Crisp, minerally, and intense in the mouth. Very dry and stony. Surprisingly long finish. Nice acids to boot. Classic Pouilly-Fume. — 5 months ago

@Tom Casagrande, my brother was the NorCal importer for them for many years (so I have Pouilly-Fume and Sancerre in multiple vintages), but he closed down his importing business.

Arrêt Buffatte Pouilly-Fumé Sauvignon Blanc 2018

Same producer and same vintage (2018) of the Sancerre we tried earlier tonight, this Pouilly-Fume is simply a much superior wine to the Sancerre, much more youthful, tart, complex Sauvignon Blanc fruit, long, lingering finish!! — 7 months ago

Fleur de Craie Extra-Brut Champagne Chardonnay

What beautiful wine. The secondary fruit notes are coming through, some dried fruit, more body. This is still an insanely austere wine. Sea shells, lemons, apples, chamomile, flowers, more apples, orange blossom. It’s just so much better with the fruit tasting older. So glad I experienced this over a few years to see how champagne evolves. 2015 harvest, disgorged jun 2019, no dosage. — 8 months ago

Like my last rating apparently, this is a denser, weightier Jacquere than I am used to. I like it - just seems more into Altesse territory. Lovely fruit, melon, lemongrass, mineral finish. — 7 years ago
