Wow! Vin lumineux, très ouvert au nez, laser en bouche, avec une certaine amplitude, mais surtout une harmonie et une classe difficilement "accotable". Mélange d'arômes marins, de safran, de champignons séchés, de poire, de thé... Clairement sur son X! Grand vin. — 4 years ago
Terrific blend of Petite Verdot (32%), Cab Sauv (28%), Merlot (22%) and Cab Franc (18%), VA grown grapes. Medium body, fruit (berries) and tannins with a Swisher Sweet finish. Aerate! Great solo and pairs easily. Buy me more. — 5 years ago
Superbe Rioja! Une bon équilibre de fruits rouges, cassis, épices, très léger goût de tabac. Moins de 2g de sucres. Excellent avec viandes rouges ou poulets avec épices bien relevée, comme un mélange Marocain par exemple. SAQ $26 — a year ago
Très bon. Le sucre est présent (5.1g) mais pas trop exagéré. Un mélange de fruits rouges mûre, acidité moyenne, un goût assez enveloppé. $19 SAQ. Bon avec spaghetti entre autre. — 4 years ago
The 2016 Geremia is a total knock-out. An exotic mélange of sweet dark cherry, plum, chocolate, licorice, spice and menthol races out of the glass. The 2016 is deep, dense and full of character. It is also easy to drink with minimal cellaring. Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon work so well here in the way they express richness and structure, all with a real sense of Tuscan raw power.

Not typically a fan of bubbles, but I loved this wine…..bright, fresh, mild acidity, wish I had oysters to pair — 3 years ago
From the Maestro “One of the real highlights of the vintage, the 2017 Les Carmes Haut-Brion possesses off the charts aromatic intensity and tremendous depth. An exotic mélange of sweet tobacco, menthol, rose petal, licorice, dried herbs and sweet dark fruit builds in a wine endowed with extraordinary beauty. Energetic and vibrant to the core, Les Carmes Haut-Brion was magnificent on the three occasions I have tasted it so far. Don't miss it.” — 3 years ago

The 2020 Ruchottes-Chambertin Grand Cru is clean and precise on the nose: an enticing mélange of red and black fruit, briar and a touch of aniseed. The palate is sapid on the entry, with wonderful vivacious red cherries and strawberry fruit laced with white pepper and allspice. Real depth and mineralité flood through on the (again) aniseed-tinged finish, completing an impressive wine. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting. (Neal Martin, Vinous, October 2024)
