Clos Troteligotte

K-barré 2023

Clos Troteligotte, k-barré, chenin, Chardonnay, malbec, merlot and tannat 2023.
This is classified as Vin de France and according to Pauline from the winery this is registered as a rosé. It's rather a light red with some tannins and a nice long fruity finish. Pauline saif the chenin saw some skin contact and the mouthfeel is rather orange wine than red or rosé to be honest. Real good glouglou stuff !

Les Celliers de la Pauline Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc 2018

Very pale gold, honeysuckle on the nose, a tiny bit mineral. Well balanced with just a hint of acidity. Very nice! — 10 months ago

Domaine de Marquiliani

Le Rosé de Pauline Rosé Blend 2020

Rose’ only by DNA. It’s really a creamed white, flecks of rose gold. One of those wines that looks more watery than she is. Some textural viscosity, equal parts cream and acid.

Aromas of apple and fennel and white cherry and herbs. Flavors of orchard fruits - pear and apple nicely rounded out.

The Corsican wines I’ve explored lately remind me that really good stuff doesn’t need to shout. They can be complete, and that’s enough.

Clos Troteligotte

Waż-K Sparkling White Blend

No notes. Purchased from the winery after a thorough tasting of their entire lineup. Kudos to Pauline who welcomed us really nicely and explained all the cuvées. Nice pastry, yeasty notes, some citrus and green apple on the nose. Fine bubbles. Good stuff! — 4 months ago

Pauline Collin Bérêche

Montagne de Reims - Ludes 1er Cru Vieilles Vignes Champagne Pinot Noir 2016

Inaugural release from Pauline, Raphaël Bérèche’s wife. Made of old-vine Pinot Noir from her own family’s estate. 48 months on lees and with a dosage of 3.5 g/l. Scarce as hen’s teeth with a mere 1996 bottles produced. Delicious, though I did find it a tad simple (and primary). Heaps of green apples and citrus fruits. Tasted almost like Zapple for those in the know. Air did coax out the more mineralic elements, along with hints of nuttiness and toast. Good energy. A lovely first release and definitely one to follow. — a year ago

Chiroubles Gamay 2021

Same wine in the same vintage a couple of months after. Prior notes still apply very well.
A Non-intervention style Beaujolais with a bit of barnyard funk on the nose at first but superb ripe cherry notes right after. The palate is very well made, with a suberb cherry juice note, a great acid drive, some grippy tannins in the rear and a long and fruity finish with a tiny salty touch in the end. Right up my alley

Get up in the wine pool Beaujolais Nouveau Gamay

I love good Beaujolais! This is absolutely spectacular! I also love wine from many regions in France, especially Saint Emillion, de Bourg and especially Bordeaux and others. But this is unbelievable! — 2 years ago

Domain De La Pauline

Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc 2019

Really complex aromas of lemon, lime, slate and chives. The citrus carries over to the pallet with saline and basil notes. Lush and fresh. Lovely balance. — 3 years ago
