Amboise, Touraine
Domaine Guion
Cuvée Domaine Bourgueil Cabernet Franc
It glitches out occasionally. Thought it was down for good after an 18 hour freeze-up a few days ago. But when it’s working I like it fine.

A few friends and I visited Chidaine’s tasting room in January 2009, the man makes fantastic Loire wines!!

Jasnières Chenin Blanc 2023
Pineapple, beeswax, pear and wet stone. Rich full bodied Chenin with beautiful acidity. When it’s first opened it had a nice funk of mushroom / wet forest with a clean mineral undertone. Balanced. I want a case stack for the summer. — a month ago
