Actually an elegant white not red from Corsica. This application is really trying hard to kill this community. Shame. — 15 days ago

2022 vintage. Sampled via Coravin. Medium-medium heavy body. Vineyard from the highest point in Gevrey-Chambertin. Gorgeous throughout already with surprising, back-end spice fest. Tannins slightly muted but started to creep out after a few minutes in the glass. This likes to speed and is going places. 1.30.26. — 5 months ago

This was really funky on opening and then blew some of that off to have a brawny wine with good fruit and tannin. Some earth and herbs. Dark fruits. Really liked it. — 8 months ago

Light garnet color. Very interesting nose and palate of red fruits, rose petals, dried herbs, black tea, bergamot and sweet baking spices. Hint of eucalyptus on the long, complex and earthy finish. Smooth tannins. Lively, bright and very well balanced. Nice concentration for a light bodied wine. Excellent! — 2 years ago

I’ve gotten away from Rosés over the last few years, but this one has brought me back. Refreshing, dry, minerals, clean finish. — 11 days ago

2014 vintage. Decanted and chilled down slightly. Great cork. Smoky, reductive nose interspersed with dark plum. Medium body since this had shed the T-M winter coat. Raspberry, rhubarb and cranberry large and in charge initially but came back into the fold in due time with some forest floor and spearmint finishing touches/accents. Well knit. Absolute gamer and willing to be thrilling now and for the next 8-10 years. Showing so nicely. 4.18.26. — 2 months ago

9.1

Dark ruby in color with a reddish rim.

Nose of plums, cherries, spices, light oak, dark chocolates, earth, tobacco leaf, herbs and black pepper.

Full-bodied with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate with black currants, plums, cooked cherries, oak, licorice, spices, chocolates, tobacco, herbs and peppercorn.

This young Cabernet Sauvignon from Red Mountain is drinking very nicely now. Complex, elegant and smooth. Tangy and interesting.

Fruit forward, rich and feels like a Right Bank Bordeaux.

Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years.

A nice sipping wine, good by itself or with food.

100% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were aged for 28 months in (45% new) mostly French oak barrels with some American oak. Organic and fermented with wild yeast. Unfiltered and unfined. Vegan.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

Medium ruby hue. Aromatic bouquet of red fruits with a matching palate. Plush and elegant. Well worth cellaring. A solid example of Grenache-dominant Chateauneuf-du-Pape. 90% Grenache and 10% Syrah. — 9 months ago

For the price, I expected a lot more. So did the rest on the table. Probably too young as it did improve with air, but I’ve had youthful (and cheaper) Champagne’s that performed far better than this. Started off with heaps of pears, bruised apples, and almonds on the nose. The palate was concentrated, juicy and almost too fruity for me (apples and apricot for days!). Air brought about more cut and chalkiness, as well as some floral notes. In short, I expected more depth. I suspect I’m just not a fan of the vintage. Time will tell. — 2 years ago

Lovely rich white wine. Tropical fruit mix brings out that Summer feeling. Very refreshing. Apricot and peach to start, citrus in the middle, passion fruit and acid to finish. — 24 days ago

Pretty red color with medium intensity.

Fresh red berries on the nose with light milk chocolates.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with cherries, red currants, light earth, light wood, spices, coffee, herbs and dark chocolates.

Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.

This delicious 3 year old Grenache blend from Châteauneuf-du-Pape is starting to drink beautifully now, and will continue to age nicely in the next 15 years.

Still young, and from the great 2022 vintage. Showing good potential to become a 94+ point wine.

Rich and fruit forward. Complex with a soft mouthfeel. Soft, pure and elegant.

The high alcohol is very well integrated. Spicy and entertaining. Well structured and precise.

Good by itself as a sipping wine.

Grapes are grown on aged vines of more than 100 years old. A blend of 60% Grenache, 20% Cinsault and 20% Syrah. Aged in mostly concrete vats for 2 years. Syrah is aged in new French oak barrels.

16% alcohol by volume.

Wow, this continues to be one of my favorite Provence rosés, ripe strawberry, cold peach, watermelon rind, damp limestone, white pepper; with +3Y of age we're at peak enjoyment.
