Les Clos Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay 2013

Pale to mid Yellow. Ripe citrus on nose and palate ( Lemon). Oak is nearly invisible. A beautiful Chablis from a great vineyard as in Les Clos. One can see why it is a Grand Cru. On the light to medium weight palate, with air, Lemon and Honey and a touch of Oyster Shell. Intensity without weight. A perfect match with fresh Pacific Oysters. — 2 months ago

Beaujolais Blanc Chardonnay 2022

Very light and pale. Granny Smith and a little spice on the nose. Medium acidity. Not super fruity. No oak apparently. Never had a white Beaujolais before. Good value for about $20. — 2 months ago

Grille Midi Fleurie Gamay 2019

Floral and dark plum/berry aromas and flavors, solid structure, very good balancing acidity, long, lingering finish, needs more cellaring, Jean-Paul does it again!! — 4 months ago
