La Combe Verte Chardonnay 2022

First time with WS in a while. Almost a pogeba. Really liking it so far. Lemon curd, acidity and tension. Excited to try the same in a few years. — a month ago

Le Désir Sonoma County Cabernet Franc Blend 2013

I’ve had both La Muse and La Joie so I was happy to get to try Le Désir. I think I like this cab franc dominated blend the best. The nose is floral with green fresh notes. On the palate it’s rich, full bodied with a luxurious velvety texture. Dark fruit, bell pepper, spices, licorice with powdery tannins that starts to melt into the wine completely. Starting to hit its peak. — a year ago

Dessus La Carrière Chablis Chardonnay 2018

Picq Chablis Dessus de la carrière 2018

À l’ouverture le nez est vraiment aromatique, melange de beurre et de bois, odeurs végétales.

En bouche, le vin est bien boisé, pas trop, juste assez équilibré, c’est gras avec une belle acidité.

Jour 2, le bois s’est estompe, fait place à la pomme verte, le citron, la poire. L’acidité est bien présente manque un peu amplitude, de rondeur mais je crois que cela va arriver avec quelques années en cave.

Les Grillés Côte de Brouilly Gamay

Reminder to myself to drink more Beaujolais. Beaujolais me when I want a fun wine that still hits that delicious mark.

Beaujolais, France, is located just south of Burgundy, and Beaujolais should never be confused with Beaujolais Nouveau. This wine is generally light, lively, and delicious.

2020 Bonnett Cotton, Cote de Brouilly 100% Gamay. Located right next to the Bonnet-Cotton winery in Odénas, Cotton’s parcel of Côte de Brouilly is on a unique terroir of ‘corne verte,’ a particular soil blend of pink granite and diorite which Pierre claims is found nowhere else in the Beaujolais. ~winemaker notes.

Rule #4 - Sometimes fun and simple can be beautiful and delicious.

Chartreuse Verte V.E.P.

Biting heat. Angry green spice. All the herbs are melded into a single molten flavor. Crazy, beautiful stuff. — 3 years ago
