Louis Bouillot

Blanc de Noirs Crémant de Bourgogne Brut Eminent Pinot Noir

Very Champagne like! Pinot Noir Blend from Burgundy! Light golden color, fine bubbles with a light creamy mousse and aromas of fresh fruit with floral scents. On the palate red berry and cherry flavors with nice underlying sweetness. Dryer than most Cremants I tasted. Lingering finish with lively acidity, good balance ending with fruit and slight yeast tang. Excellent value as a Champagne alternative. — 4 months ago

Prager

Wachstum Bodenstein Smaragd Riesling 2013

Note to self, drink more Austrian wine in 2023. A nose that kept luring me in with a hook made of citrus and honey, haunting. In the mouth, acid and minerals declared eminent domain until it released flavors of pears, salt, watermelon and orange.

Winton, I have no clue why Delectable is not allowing me to specifically send a comment to you.  I have no idea how that color came about.  Hopefully we could share a bottle this year.

Château La Gaffelière

Dame de Gaffelière Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Red Bordeaux Blend 2019

Textbook #rightbankbordeaux - a riper youthful style, black/blue fruit on nose, some cigar box, earthy notes. Quite approachable palate, of course nicely balanced acidity, firm tannins. This would be fantastic in a decade but lovely wine to drink on our 15th wedding anniversary this night. Great bottle price second wine from an eminent #stemiliongrandcru estate offered at one of our favorite Houston restaurants. — a year ago
