Vieilles Vignes Vacqueyras Grenache Blend 2016
Intense savoury cherry. See previous Delectable note. Vacqueyras - 2nd only to Gigondas for Côtes du Rhône villages. This wine was 70% Grenache (over 60 years old), 15% Syrah (40 years old) and 15% Mourvèdre (40 years old). Tends to be slightly more rustic than Gigondas although this was very satisfying and good QPR. Alcohol a bit high at 14.5%. — 2 months ago

Domaine Laurent & Karen Boussey
Vieilles Vignes Meursault Chardonnay 2021
So killer. Needed something bombastic yet focused tonight. This did the trick. Gorgeous nose of butter, minerals, sweet wood, and wafting wet earth. Classic. Palate is rich with great amplitude and killer acids and just outrageous length. The length pushes this to 9.5. The terrific purity here allied with the length is pretty thrilling. It just grips your back palate and does not leave. — 2 months ago

Vieilles Vignes Gigondas Red Rhone Blend 2021

Cherry syrup. Seemed rather new world to me. Others liked this more than me. — 3 months ago
Domaine Lignier-Michelot
Vieilles Vignes Morey-Saint-Denis Pinot Noir 2022
Way too young but it will develop into something quite remarkable! Bit darker than your average red Burgundy, wild strawberries, cherry, black raspberries, black tea, liquorice and spices. Highly concentrated and delicious. — a month ago

St-Nicolas-de-Bourgueil Vieilles Vignes Cabernet Franc 2020
Was so surprised at this one! Got it for a friend who loves Cab but is going to the Loire Valley and I wanted to show her a good expression of the reds from that region. Was delicious - easy to drink on its own or with food. Already bought a second bottle! $22. — 3 months ago

There are two kinds of st Joseph. This is one of the good ones. Long finish. Complex. Quite serious. — 14 days ago
