Opened 10 days ago. Just a bit too oxidized but after a few days in Cali bothers it settled down and be a serviceable food wine, good acidity, not much complexity, oxidation blew off. — 8 months ago
always love petit. a little bit funky wet hay nose. — 2 months ago
Excellent big gigondas - went well with balsamic chicken — 4 months ago
Oak treatment deceives on the nose. Palate displays beautiful weight and texture without gratuitous barrel influence. Butteaux is known for exuding richness, especially in warmer vintages and Piuze delivers without sacrificing acidic tension, fruit purity, and
minerality. Beautiful wine. Decant if drinking now. — 5 months ago
