Suisun Valley Charbono 2022

Dark fruit but only 12.1% abv. Lots of wild blueberry and mulberry character. Fine tannins and an enjoyable juiciness. My first Charbono and it ain’t a no-no. — 2 months ago

Les Forêts Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 2019

For me a bit too much sweetness, almost cloying. Miss the grip of a great Chablis, strange for a 2019. — 3 years ago

Grand Cellier 1er Cru Brut Champagne Blend

Chablis-like restraint in a very good way. Nose is tense, citrus and lots of limestone, an almost reductive floral nose and a touch of silky softness to balance. Acidity is high but not crazy, strange considering the house style is supposedly to inhibit all malo. Great stuff, I want to drink lots of it — 2 years ago
