Marcassin Vineyard Chardonnay 2011

I’m calling this wine of the lunch imho. Fantastic. Probably over rating since I thought it would be dead. — 6 months ago

Surprise!. Not the biggest fan of their wines (white or red) but they have unexpected aging power.

Monkey Bay

Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2022

Just ripe peach, some grassy notes. A little green bell pepper. Very drinkable. Another excellent NZ Sauvignon blanc. — a month ago

Olga Raffault

Les Picasses Chinon Cabernet Franc 1979

Thought this would be dead but the cork held up! About 30 minutes of pleasure than quickly faded and ox’ed in the glass. Oh well. Dried sour cherry, tobacco, graphite, potting soil, green peppercorn, porcini mushrooms, cigar ash, worn leather. Light, vibrant acid. — 2 years ago

Monkey Jacket North Coast Red Blend 2022

Middle of the road body. Nose is tart raspberry and roasted plum. Palette is macerated strawberry with a hint of basil. Crowd pleaser. Could cocktail or pair with food very easily. — 5 months ago
