Les Vins De Tradition

Jean-Pierre Robinot
Fêtembulles L'Opéra Des Vins Chenin Blanc 2018
Best aged bottle of this I’ve had yet. Really in a great spot. Last few bottles of Robinot in general have been disappointing, but I thoroughly enjoyed this. — 6 months ago

Chapelle Patapon Pineau d’Aunis 2020
Cedar coat closet — 3 months ago
Domaine Brusset
Tradition Le Grand Montmirail Gigondas Red Rhone Blend 2019
Roasted bell pepper, chunky, meaty grenache. Inky and chalky at the same time. Heavy flowers. Hot dusty tiles in summer time. There’s a lot to write home about, but not everything is in its right place. Good right now and maybe great in the near future. Time will tell. — 5 months ago
Domaine de Roally
Tradition Viré-Clessé Chardonnay 2021
2024 spring / summer. Yellow gold color. Round, fleshy, lots of sweet citrus and some stone fruit, a touch of residual sugar and no oak - this is my first time with Thevenet-Quintaine but understand this is the typical style. An interesting change of pace — 7 months ago
Les Vins de Vienne (Cuilleron Gaillard Villard)
Les Cranilles Côtes du Rhône Red Rhone Blend 2021
The description: Packed with red and black Fruits (blackcurrant, raspberry, sour cherry), bright and lively in the mouth with a nice minerality coming through the long, fresh finish.
The opinion: Description accurate. Would I buy again “Yes”. Lighter side of what I typically buy but still very pleasant. — 3 months ago
Domaine Rolet
Tradition Arbois Poulsard-Trousseau Blend 2022
A blend of 40% Poulsard, 30% Pinot Noir and 30% Trousseau, the 2022 Rouge Arbois Tradition displays bright red fruits alongside spicy elements. Subtle herbaceous accents add complexity, attributable to the use of approximately 20% stems from the Pinot Noir and Trousseau during fermentation. Concentrated and savory, the 2022 is neatly framed by ripe tannins and can be enjoyed over the next four years. (Nicolas Greinacher, Vinous, August 2024)

Brian Hearty
2006. Purchased a couple bottles at a Rosenthal wine dinner in 2014. Drank the first one in 2018 and really enjoyed it. Popped and poured this bottle to go with Pakistani Lamb Kebabs. Paired well, but was really only offering the savory side of its flavor profile. Two hours after dinner, the wine opened up and more tart red fruits filled in. Doesn’t really have the aged characteristics of an 18 year old wine. — a month ago
