Domaine Virginie Thunevin

Grand Vin de Bordeaux Red Bordeaux Blend

2018 vintage. 100% Merlot from this estate in Lalande de Fronsac, named after Valandraud owner Jean-Luc Thunevin's daughter. Another sexy Bordeaux value. Good concentration, ripe fruit, ripe tannin and good acidity. A little alcohol heat in the finish prevents it from a higher score, but very good value at less than 10 euros. — 4 years ago

I like to thank @Severn Goodwin for his kindness & generosity for sending this beautiful bottle of Champagne.

We shared this with friends and paired this with apple walnut vinaigrette salad last night. Complimented the salad nicely. It was a nice yin and yang balanced tug of war of food & wine.

The body is beautiful in the mouth with nice acidity. Bruised apple & pear, some apple cider, pineapple juice, lime zest & candy, white peach, easy, soft chalkiness, soft, fine, grey volcanic minerals, sea spray, brioche with spring flowers and yellow lilies. Finishes softly, elegant, nicely balanced and persists nicely.

Lydie et Thierry Chancelle

Saumur-Champigny Cabernet Franc 2021

2021 vintage. Hoppin and boppin for the price. Medium-bodied. Some earth and candy in the nose. Both in the flavor profile with chunky, mostly-ripe dark plum tagging along to bully and taunt your palate. 1.24.24. — a year ago

Bold and taunt. Big rips of acidity that gets meaty and olive in finish. Good balance and length. — 5 years ago
