Vignerons Des Grandes Vignes A Prissé
Vins Eric et Bérengère Thill
Cuvée Romane Savagnin
2022 vintage. A blend of 90% Savagnin (aka Traminer) and 10% Chardonnay from the " Grandes Vignes" vineyard ( Eric Thill also produces a 100% Chardonnay from this plot). Indigenous yeasts. Aged 10 months in stainless steel. Very low in alcohol (12,5%, whereas the 2018 was 15%!). Nose needs some air, decanting recommended. Clean, fresh, with subtle spices enhancing the fruit. Very good length too. Paired with black Camargue rice, fennel, and duck. This wine works really well with fennel ( not the easiest vegetable to combine with wine). Another great effort from this excellent estate. — a year ago
Domaine du Comte Liger-Belair
Clos des Grandes Vignes Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2014
Always such a thrill to drink CLB. It’s consistently distinctive with stunning aromatics, piercing fruit purity and an elegant, balanced and vibrant palate. 2014 took a little more coercing than 2013, but it comes around to show what a special plot it is. NSG with Vosne flair. Always a treat. — 3 years ago

Domaine Bid'gl Vignerons
Les Vieilles Vignes Muscadet Sevre et Maine 2015
Vintage 2013 | incredible how Muscadet gains in complexity and finesse after aging. This bottle is made of 60 years old vines and was ‘sur lie’ for 36 months on 50 procent acacia and 50 procent oak barrels. Such a surprise. Tasted in 2018, now 4 years later: creamy minerality in a velvet taste. Paired with beetroot salad as first dish and codd fillet with cauliflower. It makes my evening. Gonna buy more. — 2 years ago

Rich dark brooding nose of black cherry and spice. Follow through on the pallet w a hint of sassafras. Great length. Could use another couple of years. Too bad current vintages have reached unaffordable levels — a month ago
