Felt liner from a jewelry box laid out and covered in dried tea. More acidic than sweet, a compliment to lemon bar pie. — 3 days ago

Les Grézeaux Chinon Cabernet Franc 2017

Vintage 2017 | Well balanced. Serious. Spicyness. Textbook Cab Franc and still so much different from the Bourgueil we drank yesterday. Minerals. Paired with Cantonese beef and mango. — a month ago

Les Monts Damnés Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc 2022

9.1

I know that this should be aged some time but had my brother in law visiting and he is a SB fan. Pulled this out of the cellar for him. Typical SB profile, balanced and a nice round creamy moutfeel. But other than that: I didn't taste the difference between this and a 15€ supermarket sauvignon blanc. Supposedly this is the top of Sancerre.... Maybe complexity will develop in a couple of years time but for now underwhelmed 🫣 — 13 days ago

Did you really drink this at a car wash?@Doug Powers

@Peter Sultan, of course not, but Delectable (like UnTappd, the beer app I also use) has very limited “venue” apps, so, like my buddy @Severn Goodwin, who once checked in a wine at a Canadian toll booth, we all look for funny venues!! On UnTappd, I was able to create a custom venue that I use, but have never figured out how to do so on Delectable?!?!

Oh shoot, I was really starting to enjoy the image of Delectable-ites toasting with their Chinon while watching as their car gets scrubbed. All kidding aside, there was a shift on Delectable several years back I noticed when it became impossible to locate myself ( though w restaurants it works well); apparently my closest drinking venue is the synagogue across the street!@Doug Powers

Le Haut-Lieu Demi-Sec Vouvray Chenin Blanc 2018

Perhaps a little 1D but plenty of fruit concentration and acid, check in in another 5. — 7 days ago
