Domaine Terlato & Chapoutier
Lieu Dit Malakoff Pyrenees Shiraz 2016
Sorry. Just noticed the top line on the label. Chapoutier has been doing other joint ventures with Australian winemakers.
@Bob McDonald, I don’t know if they’re still doing this wine, but I believe Terlato is the name of an importer (?), maybe of Chapoutier wines, in Chicago (IL)??
@Doug Powers i can’t say Doug.

Domaine Huet
Le Haut-Lieu Demi-Sec Vouvray Chenin Blanc 1985
The difference 40 years makes is maybe just a thin wooly blanket.
Pull it back and this thing's full of life - bright, vibrant, gas in the tank.
It’s brighter yellow than tired gold. Theres more fruit than decay. Sour apricots and yellow canned peaches, white popcorn and greasy bacon, and that foggy musk.
Acid rips through and does not give. Barely sweet with the demi-sec tag thats written right there but I'm not buying it.
Tonight this is 40 years old, just gettin' goin, just like me. — 2 months ago

Domaine Arnaud Lambert
Brézé Clos de Midi Lieu-Dit Saumur Chenin Blanc 2022
Nose: some funk. Blows off. White flowers.
Palate: sweet fruit. Mineral. Good. Well made. Not too wooly.
