Dammit. Like, damn why is this wine so fun, friendly, interesting and beautiful? It’s like when you meet a famous person and they are as marvelous as the press makes them out to be. Very much into this. Deep purple (goth Ellen like), very rich (hedonist Ellen turned on), very spicy (living vicariously Ellen clings to) and balanced (Virgo Ellen makes checkmark in wine planner) and very I want more in my glass. All hail Priorat. — 6 years ago
Dancing with bears tonight. It took me more than an hour to teach this bear the Texas Two Step, but after that we were cutting a rug. The initial bright red fruit notes eventually slide into a darker, richer profile of blackberry, charcoal, currant, cassis, and a mix of dark and milk chocolate. What really takes this from good to great is the constant background of baking bread infused with rosemary. For the hedonist, this is a pure pleasurefest, with more than enough complexity and nuance to satisfy the intellectual, but like a soaring ballad, the real appeal here is to the romantic. — 6 years ago

I've been a sucker for New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc well before Cloudy Bay was bought by LVMH in 2003. The fresh cut grass, gooseberry, lime, melon, and exotic herbaceousness that pervades the finish never fails to satisfy the wineaux and the hedonist in me. — 7 years ago
Try!!! Rated to show notes. Wine and spirits reading. Frankly right, but I did it Beam of creamed plan a Kia and boysenberry fruit flavors, listening with vanilla Dash assented toast through a polish finish. Ames squarely at the hedonist crowd. — 3 years ago
Oh zippy. It is less a hedonist and more and artist. An artist keen on committing to a movement whilst retaining its agency. It has a bit of a funky nose so do the swirl decant dance. Then you’ll have fun earth and every color of pepper and tannins that speak up then stand down yet linger respectfully in the background a like a chaperon who keeps just enough distance. Prob my fave Chinon yet. — 5 years ago

Very pale rose robe, nose of flowers and cassis, very elegant and dry on the mouth but with an hedonist note, great bottle. Excellent as drink but will go really well with light meals. — a year ago
