Brut Pétillant Vouvray Chenin Blanc 2019

Fresh meadow, the sweetness of an oyster shell, slight banana.

Oh wow. Wonderful. Light, airy, yet a good chew and delicate balance of the tartness of a peach, raspberries, and leafiness. Fresh and zingy, this nouveau wraps your tongue in a shawl of minerality and stone fruit.

Really lovely.

Chinon Cabernet Franc 2010

Deep garnet color with a hint of brick. Leather and black cherry on the nose very subdued alcohol. Earthy notes at first then dried orange peel dried montmorancy cherry leather and a bit of smoke. Have one more in the cellar which I will wait 2-5years to open. Thanks to Eric Brown for recommending this lovely cab franc — a month ago

Les Grézeaux Chinon Cabernet Franc 2021

Day 2 transformation. Pure gravel dust on the nose. Much more suave mouth feel. Mineralality. Raspberry. Dark fruits, and a little bret. Light to medium body. Cellar temp it’s really nice. — a month ago
