A 25-year-old CdP that is drinking beautifully tonight, should last a little bit longer, but pretty darn fantastic tonight, red fruits, earthy notes with with garrigue aromatics, long, lingering finish, terrific!! — a month ago

Domaine du Pegau

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhône Blend 2000

Pegau CdP is always so great, rich Grenache w/dense, ripe redfruits, this 2000 CdP is more fruit forward than the more structured 2001 Vieux Donjon, both wines are outstanding, these 2 wines really well illustrate the 2000 vs. 2001 CdP vintage differences!! — a month ago

Le Vieux Donjon Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2001

This CdP seems a bit more angry and wild from being opened, a touch more structure than the softer 2000 Bosquet des Papes (2001 was a more tannic vintage), solid balance, also mature, 13.5% ABV, longish finish. — 6 months ago

Castille Brut Rosé Blend

NV. Bracing acidity initially, then some wheat/dark breadiness on the sides of the mouth that softened the ride. Interesting and intense. The new btg Brut Rosé Champagne. The Brut Rosé Champagne ride only equal to the ridiculous Sancerre (blanc) ride the last few years. 5.15.24. — 2 years ago
