Chavignol Sancerre Pinot Noir Rosé 2017

Bouteille orpheline exposée dans la vitrine du restaurant le Pied de cochon à Montréal, transformé temporairement, pandémie oblige, en pizzeria/caviste. Une fois les formalités d'adoption complétées, ce rosé n'a pas eu à patienter longtemps avant de rencontrer la vrille. On est loin ici du rosé de canicule. Sérieux, séveux, avec un profil aromatique assez unique et difficilement descriptible. On y trouve un petit fruit rouge, mais en mode mineur. La courte finale nous empêche d'exagérer la notation, mais ne gâche en rien l'expérience. Beau hasard! — 4 years ago

Chapeau Melon Merlot

This is an organic wine made through an all natural process. The winer is part of a new movement in France. The wine had a beautiful deep plummy flavor and sift finish. It was fizzy for a good part if the dinner. There were fruity tones but a nice dry finish. No harsh tannins but tasted heavier than a merlot. Very nice surprise. — 10 years ago

Vallée D'Aoste Cornalin 2016

Like many Valle d’Aoste single grape wines, the color is part of the enjoyment. Purple-red in the glass, with aromas of pepper and vanilla. Low acidity, but with very high tannins, and red berry flavors. Wonderful! — 5 years ago

Learning and enlightenment aside, this wine is made by producers (family) in Valle d'Aosta that I have visited and can sincerely say are some of the kindest, meekest, most genuine, hospitable people we've ever met. They have an agriturismo/b&b/tavern and were just wonderful.

Sounds wonderful, I'd love to meet them someday. So many people I meet that are passionate about wine have a love for life that draws me in. It seems where you find great wine you also find great people.

Vallée D'Aoste Vuillermin 2016

This is Fumin Junior, with much more acidity. Besides that, there are heavy dark fruit flavors. This is much more explosive with heavy pasta and very spicy meat sauce. Wonderful! — 5 years ago
