Eugène Pinot Meunier - Pinot Noir Champagne Blend

Quite different bubbles from this Special Club offering. And given the panel tests to make it into Special Club each year, like others , this does not disappoint. Crisp, citrus fruit driven. Delightful find. — 5 months ago

Réserve Caveau Moulin-à-vent Vieilles Vignes 2009

Pretty concentrated ruby dress. Evolved nose evoking Burgundy. In the mouth a beautiful smoothness, concentration, between evolved notes and fruit still very lively. A pretty bottle full of refinement. It can be drunk on its own.
Can still age 5/10 years, maybe more.

Jolie robe rubis concentrée. Nez évolué évoquant la Bourgogne. En bouche une belle onctuosité, de la concentration, entre notes évoluées et fruit encore bien vif. Une jolie quille pleine de raffinement. Ça se boit tout seul. Peut vieillir encore 5/10 ans voir plus.

Jongieux Vin de Savoie Brut Rosé

Yay Gamay! This is a French sparkling rose Gamay. From our Gamay wine dinner at Northside Social. Very enjoyable and adds some joy to this otherwise dreary day (rainy and cold). — 2 years ago

Domaine des Billards (Héritiers Loron)

Clos des Billards Saint-Amour Gamay 2019

American geography ignoramus that I am, little did I know that the Northernmost tip of the Rhone- Cote Rotie- is the kissing cousin of Beaujolais. St. Amour is more midpoint, but has that great granite terroir which makes this long standing Cru Bojo (& under 20$) a perennial fave. It’s that mineral tautness I love. — 3 years ago

Happy food-friendly Pinot. Billed as from the Auvergne (although VdF), but very composed and not at all rustic. — 2 years ago
