Château de la Grave
Villa Ida Bordeaux Merlot Rosé 2022
This is the Rosé Villa Ida 2022 from the Côtes de Bourg estate Château de la Grave. 100% Merlot, fermented and aged in dolia jars. I am not a big rosé fan, but this is a deliciously fresh wine with impeccable purity. — 3 years ago

Buntsandstein Ida Pinot Noir 2015
Very close to perfection. See previous notes but this also has Iodine (As a chemist i am well familiar with that note). Unspitable. In the top 1%. See my previous notes. Pinot does not get better than this a perfect expression of the site north of Freiburg on the slopes of the black forest. — 3 months ago

Château La Fleur Cailleau
Canon-Fronsac Red Bordeaux Blend 2019
2019 vintage. Château La Fleur Cailleau, Canon-Fronsac. Bought in 1982 by Paul Barré (also Château La Garde, Fronsac) and managed these days by his son Gabriel and his wife Edith. Biodynamically farmed since 1990. Very impressive indeed, with an exemplary purity of fruit, ripe tannin and energetic acidity. Highly recommended. Abv. 14,5%. — 3 years ago

Muschelkalk Pinot Noir 2015
Dear Friends warning this wine needs 48 hours to open up! I kept it for that time under Argon!
Still think the 2015 Muschelkalk mights have peaked. I opened 3 bottles. The first was oxidized and the other 2 were good to world class. The cork on all three was quite soft.
The wine has this ethereal character but the twisty black forest herbs are somewhat gone. It is still great to drink - but to shine one needs stupido patience.
Calk, very faint cherry. (Collecting E&M since 2009. And have been at the winery every other year.).
If you have it you must really experiment and play around but also - drink it up! Not a wine for normal or sane people.
#Will check 2015 Bundsandstein and IDA next. — a year ago

Les Baronnes Sancerre Pinot Noir 2018
Pinot Noir? From Sancerre?!? Mais, c’est vrai. In the glass: very pretty reds, light at tops, pink-red near sides of the bowl, darkening to a velvety rich dark rouge-noir center bottom of the glass… “La Vie en Rose” nearly leaps out pf the glass. On the nose: fresh paper and new spring acacia leaves. A pack of Marlborough’s still wrapped in plastic wants to announce itself at the end of a deep sniff. Ahhh, there it is—the spring cherries of a light pinot dance forth over the lips… en point…and plier mid-palate to let roll in lush cherry juice—just a little tart-sweet and delightfully bright… Edith Piaf coloratura leads to French Oak-inflected vanilla on a pillow-soft finish…oh!
A lingering finish at that—extra points, thank you! — 2 years ago
"Odedi"
Pretty color of peach with a salmon hue.
Soft nose of light raspberries, fresh cherries, light citrus, green apples, spices and minerals.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with cherries, strawberries, citrus, peaches, spices, sea salt and cayenne pepper.
Long finish with limes and tart pomegranates.
This is a delicious Rosé from Walla Walla Valley. Rich and creamy. Very spicy and entertaining. Complex and engaging.
Fully dry, but showing this fruitines on the palate, which is very attractive.
This Single Vineyard Rosé is starting to drink beautifully now, and will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years.
Showing good balance with a great mouthfeel. Feels like a spicy Bandol Rosé. So interesting.
Wine Enthusiasts 93 points.
Good when properly chilled, but shows the complexity when not too cold.
A great sipping wine.
100% Grenache grapes were aged for 10 months in concrete and stainless steel vats. A small production of only 1,788 bottles. Biodynamic.
13.4% alcohol by volume.
