Chenançon is a new variety for me, this was grown down in the Gard. High toned and earthy, this had a wispy feel in the mouth, somewhat muddled but vibrant as well. Red fruited with soil, some poop and herbal notes. This picked up focus with food, becoming better delineated with a macerated cherry core. On the natural side of things. Quite enjoyable, an interesting wine and all in all a pleasant discovery. — 10 months ago
Viognier, Grenache Blanc, Roussanne, Marsanne.
Floral, pear, citrus, peach, golden grass. 13.5% ABV
Based on this wine, Duché D’Uzes is the Santa Barbara region of California. All notes considered, the peach notes of Grenache Blanc are amazing,and hard to find the equivalent of outside of Santa Barbara (and Paso Robles).
Most definitely has my vote in the $15 range — 2 years ago

Nice Calvados that I picked up in Normandy. Enjoyed it after dinner with family at the beach house — 3 years ago
McCarthy & Schiering, $12
Got tobacco notes on the cork and smoky dense jammy fruit in the glass. More of that jammy fruit on the palate, getting plum and blackberry, followed by a vanilla and spice, and finished with a peppery tannic and slightly bitter smoke. A touch hot but understandable at 14.5%, and pretty light on acid but still balanced. A bit heavier bodied than I usually prefer but really enjoyed it, one of my favorite Syrah dominant wines I've had, good value too! — 9 months ago
Under rated Chardonnay with surprising crisp fruit forward notes and mineral finish. Easy to drink alone or with a bloomy soft cheese. — a year ago
