Cuvée Anonyme Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2016

2016 vintage. Decanted (little sed) and tasted after 30 mins and 2 hours. Medium body. Côte-Rôtie nose. Smoky, plummy, spicy with decent length of finish. Slightly lacking in terms of overall depth of impression but still very nice. 6.12.26. — 5 days ago

It’s that time again- the NY wine spectator event.
Always a great event except this year that did not have several of the first growths and they upped the price!! Bad combo!!

Le Secret des Sabon Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2012

What I dream about when I dream about wine. Perfect. Leather and tannins and earth and depth. Drinking at its peak now. The nose is sensational and hits as soon as the bottle is opened. The fruit is complex and dark with some bitterness. Worth its $90 price tag. — 13 days ago

Vieilles Vignes Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc 2020

My last bottle of the 2020, one of the riper versions I’ve had of this consistently excellent cuvée. Such deeply ripe gooseberry fruit that it crosses over into tropical. But there’s loads of freshness in the form of limestoney mineral scents. Ripe and deep on entry, but then the sneaky acids and the minerality clamps down, making the finish mouthwatering. Terrific accompaniment to our simple broiled haddock weeknight dinner. — 3 months ago

Tropics is the new Sancerre. Hard to find lean or green versions with global warming.
