Simply fabulous. Brioche, with pear and green apple. Would be ideal with roasted chicken. — 6 years ago
Exceptional, prefer over the 2012 and 2011 in that order. Very long finish. Chardonnay at its best. The barrel program is perfect. Nice neutral oak influence. — 6 years ago
Nugget, prunes, and bitter chocolate. Simply a delight. Easy to drink. — 6 years ago
Unbelievable acids that shine through. Though this Sauvignon Blanc from Sancerre is barrel aged on fine lees that contributes to the softness of on the palate. You have the luxury of everything the fruit has to offer in the most balanced Sancerre I’ve had to date. Definitely worthy of the retail price of $88. — 5 years ago
Solid table wine that will pair well with pork belly or any meat stew. Earthy, robust, with a medium finish. — 6 years ago
Extreme floral notes, white flowers and yellow rose. Soft palate with mouth watering acids, and star fruit. An amazingly long finish. Wowzers! — 6 years ago
Fantastic oxidation, a great example of how great producers can grow in a poor wine region, care for how the grapes and wine is produced, and make a fantastic wine. Imagine and aged Taurasi with a hint of heather and spice. — 6 years ago
Pic Saint Lupe continues to demonstrate some of the best table wines. Far more approachable than Bandols. Dark rich fruits and earthy aromas with hints of garrigue and leather. — 6 years ago
This Nebbiolo has a soft Chinese lacquered cherry wood aroma with tart cherry and red plum on the palate. Very long finish. At the end of its drinking window. Needs slow decanting. — 6 years ago

Cindy brought this in and I must say that it has developed beautifully since I last tasted it. Red and black plum. Hints of currants with a gorgeous tannins and a finish to match. A very close second to Acaibo. — 5 years ago
