Château Yvonne

Saumur Champigny Cabernet Franc

Vegetal. High tannins, high salinity, light bodied, great chilled and easy drinking. Not too pizza-ey. Great! — a month ago

Haden Fig

Cancilla Vineyard Willamette Valley Pinot Noir 2020

Very barn-ey, pasture, rhubarb and ocean salt nose. Sharp and tart cherry flavor. A bit spritzy. This wine has a lot going on. Raspberry now-and-later and starburst. Not getting the stoney-ness often found in Pinot noir, but that is not a bad thing. Probably should have let it aerate a bit more before tasting. — 2 years ago

Alovini

Armànd Aglianico del Vulture

Paxton

Quandong Farm Vineyard Shiraz 2021

Seems abt right for the modest price paid. Dark fruits, earthy but not yet barnyard-ey. — 10 months ago

Domaine de la Potardiere

Muscadet Sevre-et-Maine Sur Lie Melon de Bourgogne

color: pale straw
aroma: stone fruit, salty undertone, green apple
flavor: meyer lemon, tarragon, smoked salt,

aroma: medium
acidity: medium plus
body: medium

incredibly expressive wine coming out of muscadet. the nose is so soft compared to the mineral driven, acidic palette. i was expecting more of a biscuit-ey lies-iness, however, there is an immensely unique and pleasant smokey finish to this wine. it’s dying to be paired with some seafood!!

Corte alla Flora

Riserva Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Sangiovese Blend

Rome, Italy-last night here and found my new fav! Dark, it coats your throat as you drink it. It’s full bodied. Long finish. Oak-ey. Smokey. Lovely!! — a year ago

Domaine de Bellivière (Eric Nicolas)

Rouge-Gorge Coteaux Du Loir Pineau d'Aunis

Love love as always! Is this my favorite vintage for this wine? Maybe not. Does it taste a little less Pineau d’aunis-ey than usual? Probably. But I’m splitting hairs here. Awesome wine that I bet will age well — 2 years ago

Ultreia De Valtuille Bierzo Mencía 2008

Although this wine has gained in complexity and depth over the years, I still can’t get passed its Pinot-ey character...
So, to me, this is a well-made wine, which is food for thought... not for the heart.
