A deep golden straw color leaps from the glass with heady aromas of apricots, white peaches, dried pineapple, lilacs, vanilla, clove and a touch of flint. Densely packed, round and seamless on the palate the wine is stuffed with an array of stone and tropical fruits crossed with a racy acidity and an über long finish! — 5 years ago
The inimitable Grosbot-Barbara Chardonnay Tressallier St. Pourcain blend. A favorite of mine. Nothing like it. Nose is really terrific. Like elite 1er Cru st. Aubin. Airy, mineral and so aromatically refined. Classy minerals. Really classy. This is such an elite wine. Subtle spice. Hint of framing oak. So good. Balanced and super pure. Juicy, structured, clean and electric. Rich and energetic with a knockout finish. Amazingly precise and deep. Such a brilliant wine. It’s like white burgundy crossed with Anjou Blanc. So good — 6 years ago

Nice Cabernet. Dark color. Black cherry on the nose. Nice fingers. Rich tannins. Earthy. Very nice wine. — a year ago
Citrus and stone, zippy. — 3 years ago
30 min decant(little cloudy sediment). A formidable medium garnet color with some bricking. On the nose: perfumed notes of raspberry, vanilla, forest floor, and cedar. Taste: A creamy, juicy, balanced wine with red plum, smoke, touch of blueberry, minerals, earth, spicy vanilla oak, and a medium finish. Sticking pins in my Packers doll and crossing my fingers, let's see what happens. — 4 years ago




Absolutely stunning. This release/vintage has a lot of life left in it. I cannot wait to drink my other cellared bottle in ten years. Fresh yellow and white orchard fruits, young creamy Brie cheese, multiple layers of texture and minerality. I will literally FIGHT to continue buying upcoming vintages of Romain Guiberteau’s releases, with avid search for his small release Cabernet francs from Saumur; even Grolleaus, with fingers crossed that they will stay so affordable. Wait and see, his release prices are going to quickly climb in the coming years. — 6 years ago

Borgueils are creeping up in alcohol, as I remember this as a lighter affair in previous vintages. Still, a precocious 14$ wine, with classic cab franc dimensions but now with a thicker, richer mouthfeel. Given how Beaujo has crossed the 20$ demarcation border for some time, my go to summer mid week choice. — 6 years ago
Nicely unfiltered and raw. A touch sweet but refreshing and mouth watering at the same time. Freshly bruised fruit. As nigoris go, this is the sound an Italian chef makes when kissing their fingers. — 7 years ago

This is so good. Interestingly enough, the server came over after opening and said it was flawed - did I want to try it and see? Uh yeah. It was fine/great. Does it have a powerful nose. Yeah. But flawed. No. No way. — 10 days ago
