I was thrilled that my last bottle of Clos Pepe was excellent. I opened and tasted, it seemed pretty good so I did not decant but put in an aerator. At dinner it had a great nose of cedar, black cherries, cola and spice. The taste was dark plums and other dark fruits. The finish was long and very smooth. I was going to save a bit to see how it would have been the next day but drank it all but did notice the finish being not as smooth at the end. Happy I did not decant thinking now I may have missed the best part.
A lot of history will Clos Pepe and a odd connection with Paterson, NJ that started it all. I’ve never been disappointed with their PN’s and some of their oddities including Grappa. — 9 days ago

Amazing, vibrant, perfectly tart dusty raspberry and crushed cranberry splashed over granite chunks and crunchy autumn leaves. Had with braised short ribs and fig chocolate for desert. Top 3 wines of the year for me, paired with a glorious autumn day. — 2 years ago

LoireTasting #1 - chenin serie
Typically the lively and charming Chenin that we like to taste in the Loire: White fruits, pear, green apple, rifle stone, smoked. Dry and tonic. Final on the rather long acidity. Purity of wines with little interventionist. Nice precision. Ideal companion of goat cheeses from the region, among others..

Typiquement le Chenin vif et charmant qu’on aime goûter en Loire: Fruits blancs, poire, pomme vert, Pierre à fusil, fumé. Sec et tonique. Finale sur l’acidité assez longue. Pureté des vins peu interventionnistes. Belle précision. Compagnon idéal des fromages de chèvres de la région, entre autres.. longueur remarquable sur la fraîcheur minérale. — 2 years ago
