Round and fruity strong. Great for the holidays. — 6 months ago

Duchesse de Magenta

Les Houillères Chardonnay 2019

Pale, pear on the nose. Elegant, refined, clean non-acidic finish, yet unremarkable. Another burgh best for sipping as an aperitif rather than paired with food — 2 years ago

Duchesse de Magenta

Les Houillères Puligny-Montrachet Chardonnay 2019

Nice enough but what I would call an upper crust J white….somewhat acidic, subdued, just the slightest bit bitter….not bold enough for me yet not elegant like a Mersault…just not that interesting. J loves it — 8 months ago

Soalheiro

Monção e Melgaço Alvarinho 2022

Fruity at the start (duchesse pear, a bit of green peach) and caramel crust at the end.
More than ordinary.

Reserva Special Oerbier 2017

I am not a serious beer drinker, usually at the ball park or a barbecue. Curiosity gets the best of me and like wine I enjoy seeing what’s out there. Holy s#%t! This was insane. A very murky reddish brown liquid and a cream colored foam filled my glass. Yes that is a wine glass. Intense Port like aromas of dry figs and chestnuts along with cherries(?). Powerful flavors of toffee, coffee , chocolate and balsamic vinegar. Spot on balance of sweet and sour. I always thought Duchesse de Bourgogne was the most vinous beer I have ever tasted until now. Perhaps most amazingly the 13% alcohol was no where to be found. I realize others on Delectable have had beer like this but for me it was an epiphany. A totally polarizing beverage . I will definitely try other vintages to see what age creates. — 3 years ago

Great brewery. Their winter/Christmas beer can age really well.
