Saumur Cabernet Franc 2022

Red fruit and herbaceous nose. Nice light medium body with hint of green bell pepper. A nice intro to Cab Franc. — 2 months ago

Thibaud Boudignon

Anjou Chenin Blanc 2015

Racy acidity and really enjoyable. What was lacking was the amount of fruit that screams Chenin. — 11 days ago

Domaine du Closel-Château des Vaults

La Jalousie Savennières Chenin Blanc 2020

Quite stony on the nose , green apple , wet wool. On the palate fills out well with more green fruits , apple , pear and quince with a creamy , slightly waxy character to go with the flinty , saline and stony notes . Good balanced acidity and decent , honey tinged finish . Enjoyable now though will age well over the next 10 -15 years or so . — 24 days ago

Brézé Saumur Chenin Blanc 2017

A subtle, elegant, & lithe Chenin from a master. I’m going to say in a closed phase at year 7. The stuffing is there, & the balance is impeccable. — 2 months ago

Saumur-Champigny Cabernet Franc 2019

Stands out with yellow label. Smells chalky and herbal. Bitter streak, with very tart under-ripe berries. — 22 days ago

Moulin Touchais

Coteaux du Layon Chenin Blanc 1985

My favorite wine. Flavors echoed the apple cider poached pears.

Earthy (wet/ozone post thunderstorm forest floor, button mushroom), burnt caramel, baked pear and apple, sage, agave, wild acid.
