Soliste Les Gayeres Pierry 1er Cru Champagne Pinot Noir 2015

Not much produced as you can see of this PN based champagne. Diagorged in January 2020.
What a fantastic wine this is. Straw yellow, subtle mousse, apple, brioche nose.
Nice bitters making this very full bodied.

La Sauvage Syrah 2008

Definitely closed at first but opened beautifully with dinner (salmon). Started off very angular with hard edges but opened to a rich, dark and balanced wine. — 10 years ago

L'Ésperance Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir 2007

Soliste is one of my favorite winemakers, and although this wine was pleasant, it did not represent the best of their offering. Nonetheless, this is a winemaker I will return to time and again. — 10 years ago

Soliste Pierry 1er Cru Les Gouttes d'Or Pinot Meunier 2015

Quite light golden yellow colour . Quite deep yellow fruits , touches of pastry , roasted nuts . Very complex needs a bit of time to open. On the palate pretty big , yellow fruits again , with that pastry element . Long and elegant acidity, with mineral , saline finish . Now and for the next 5- 7 years . — 4 years ago

There's an old adage, "Don't bring a knife to a gunfight." Well, I brought a Pinot to a BBQ. On the darker side, particularly for Sonoma Coast, as well as young, so not totally out of place. I would like to think that I certainly would have guessed Pinot blind, but none of group did. Partly due to the profile I'm sure, but I think expectations played a role and this was the last bottle after some very dark Sagrantino, Sangiovese and Syrahs. A Pinot was not expected in that row.

A got a lot sugar off this and didn't show as PN blind. Sweet red fruit and a chalky mouthfeel.
