Opened about 8 hours prior to service and Audouze’d. The 1989 pours a deep garnet color with a transparent core and a slightly watery rim; medium viscosity and light staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is vinous with notes of ripe and desiccated black and red fruits: brambles, poblano pepper, smoked and candied pork belly, leather, mint, damp decomposing earth, gentle spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+ and still pretty grippy. What’s wild is how relatively “modern” this wine comes across; especially considering the more humble Côtes de Bourg appellation. Drink now. — 15 hours ago

Is hard to imagine how anything could be much better from nose to lingering finish. But, I'll keep searching for the perfect dram. — 3 years ago

This Pinot Noir (a.k.a. Spätburgunder), hailing from Baden, Germany, is fresh, fragrant, complex, and elegant.

Nose - wet clay pot, rose petals, leather, crayons . Main flavors - apricots, nectarines and plum and unripe cherry. Mid taste is sweeter and then finishes dry but not too dry. Very very nice! — a month ago

Forgot this wine, no indication of vintage except on the cork! A flashy earthy dark fruited presentation straight out of some wilderness, firm almost woodsy palate and good finish. Not at all what I would have thought of as Gamay. Looked like it didn’t present well several years ago. Age difference? — 2 months ago

This Grenache rosé throws delightful aromas of fresh strawberry, white flowers, and hint of freshly cut grass. Follows with a lively acidity and flavors of strawberry, raspberry, and a bit of smooth creme fraiche on a surprisingly long finish. Stellar pairing with balsamic glazed pork chops and roasted sweet potato! [10/3/23] ($19) — 9 months ago
