L'Ermitage Brut Anderson Valley Chardonnay Pinot Noir 2017

Golden color, fine bubbles. On the nose pear, bread and butter. First sip tastes and smells like freshly baked bread, followed high acid, pear and peach. A little bit off dry. Delicious. — 18 days ago

I almost went to this dinner but they couldn’t tell me the menu. Important as I have some food allergies. I also asked about what they were pouring and they could not answer that either. For nearly $600 a person, I needed to know. Looks like a great dinner though.

x good year to be obsessed about...standout wines of the night were the 91 Volcanic Hill and the 2001 Gravelly Meadows. Really wanted to like the 1990 Lake(I have not tried Lake before), but it seemed a little light with a sharp finish. The 91 Volcanic Hill was singing with expressive notes of dark cherry, cedar, graphite, peppery and a nice long finish.

x too bad, it would have been nice to meet you. They had a nice group of people at the event with plenty of pours of wine. Hope they had a late night party cause I'm sure the 20 of us did not finish a 1.5L,3L,5L,3L of wine. Cheers!

Premiere Cuvee Menetou-Salon Pinot Noir

Expression concentrée et minérale du Pinot Noir en Loire. Belle acidité fondue portée par des notes primaires framboises/cerises. Corps et finale sur des notes florales, herbacées et terreuses. Tanins persistants tout en finesse. Belles notes musquées et épicée. Superbe dans cette gamme de prix.

Menetou-Salon Sauvignon Blanc

In a blind tasting this could easily be confused with a NZ Sauv Blanc....there are a number of tasting similarities...except NZ continues to struggle to produce this level of sophistication. (Just down the road from Sancerre, this Menetou-Salon is a lovely, lovely wine.) — 5 years ago

Victor Red Blend 2015

Juicy, silky, subtle plush tannins with nice ripe dark fruits like plum and blueberry and tobacco spice notes. Very easy to drink! What a great value! — 7 years ago
