This is sharp, focused, citrus, bursting with freshness, and a lengthy acidic but subtle hoppy finish. Lucky find! Last time I had this was ten years ago? It’s like bumping into and old friend… — 2 years ago

Outstanding! Crisp nose, fruity, touch of yeast. Great head, like a fresh home brew in the best possible way — 4 years ago

Drinking Burgundy in a Paris brasserie. Awesome, even if the wine isn’t that great 😊 — 7 months ago

Not for me, I found the 9% ABV to make it a bit flabby — 2 years ago

If Corbières is the heart of Languedoc then surely Carignan (81%) is its soul. This is a terrific brasserie wine that brings abundant joy throughout the meal. Silly to score, but hey..... — 3 years ago

Color of clear ruby mixed with orange color, light. Nose of dried strawberry, aldehyde, spice, prune, complexes and fragrant, also some dates, a bit wet mushroom, and refine acidity note. Taste of refined acidity and subtle sweetness, fermented cabbage, ripe cranberry, dried strawberry, some Unami, hint of zest, almost no tannins, a bit peppery, and a bit flowering note. Taste is refined too. Aftertaste is medium long with savory notes from the taste plus oak. Nice one. — 4 years ago

Happy belated Zwanze Day! Celebrating with this 2017 bottling of Cantillon’s Classic Gueuze. Over the years, I have drifted to be a little more fond of 3 Fonteinen but I’m really splitting hairs. This is world class.

Popped and poured; crushed in 30min after doing the first yard work of 2024 and getting the hops trained to the trellis. The gueuze pours a brilliant golden color with a persistent head. On the nose, mostly tasty stone fruits: apricots, peach, kumquat, horse blanket, stony minerals. On the palate, the gueuze is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and refreshing. Drink now. — 7 months ago

Bottled 10/2021. An old favorite not had in years. I remember this being fresher with more citrus, playful. This edition is maltier, not quite as lively. Still delicious and a good match with homemade shawarma. To paraphrase Fernand Point— is it Saison DuPont that has changed, or have I? — 3 years ago
