Château Le Puy

Barthélemy Expression Originale de Terroir Côtes de Francs Red Bordeaux Blend 2021

My first cult rosé. Hefty from all perspectives: eye, nose and palate. Flourishing, strawberry, cherry, some cinnamon and pepper as well. On the palate it drinks more like a light red than a rosé with lots of ripe strawberries and maraschino cherries but good acidic balance and even some tannins with a licorice finish. Even needed a good hr to open up. Pleasant mind bender for sure. Cheers. — 8 days ago

Expression de Granite Muscadet de Sèvre-et-Maine Melon de Bourgogne 2018

Nice minerality, subdued lemon, a hint of oyster like salinity and more body than you’d expect from a Muscadet. — 7 months ago

Expression d'Orthogneiss Muscadet de Sèvre-et-Maine Melon de Bourgogne 2020

Vintage 2020 | a Melon de Bourgogne to make you happy. Granny Smith apple and minerals in smell, very good concentration - I even thought for one moment to taste a sweet touch. But the biowine is bone dry 😉. Very well balanced. Great effort. Paired with mussels and a dish with mackerel. | at restaurant Gist in Tilburg — 9 months ago

@Peter van den Besselaar definitely a change in the label from the 2009/2010 vintages I bought. I like the new label.

Stella di Campalto Podere San Giuseppe

Riserva Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2012

Along with the majestic 2010 one of my favorite Stella vintages. So giving right off the bat, never any heat even in this warm vintage, just so fresh and clean wafting stunning perfumed aromatics with an elegant, detailed and voluminous palate. Always an amazing expression of Sangiovese. — 4 months ago

La Chapelle Hermitage Syrah 2014

Spectacular expression of northern Syrah. Inky but approachable. Smaller tannins. Lots of youth but excellent to share now. — 8 months ago
