Face Nord Grand Cru Extra Brut Champagne Blend

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of an hour. The wine pours a deep straw, bordering yellow color with medium+ viscosity and a persistent mousse. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of raspberries, lemon, brioche, and minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose though the fruit seem rounder on the palate than on the nose. The finish is medium+. A fairly agreeable Champagne. Disgorged in October 2022. — 2 months ago

Cuvée Spéciale L'Etoile Savagnin 2021

Aromas remind me of Champagne, so every time I tasted it, I was expecting bubbles. Aromas of tart apples, Poire William, bread, brine, and minerals with hints of citrus that come out more when wine is chilled. Nice complexity. — 2 months ago

L'Etoile Blanc White Blend 2015

One of my favorite Jura producers. This is classic Jura White. Oxidized Jura at its best. Bruised apple, briny, sherry like, lots of acidity, med tannins. Not to everyone’s taste but definitely mine. This is classic Jura at it’s best. — 3 months ago

Face Nord Grand Cru Rosé Champagne

When I can almost see the weekend.

NV Pehu Simonet Face Nord Rosé Grand Cru is a 75% Pinot Noir and 25% Chardonnay blend. Striking pale salmon color. This is Verezenay and Verzy Grand Cru fruit. This is delicious. Stunning acidity, laser focused finished. Beautiful dry champagne. Paired perfectly with Indian.

Because champagne is always a good idea.

Tandem Syrah du Maroc 2020

Always one of the best quality/price/pleasure ratios in Morocco. The solar syrah, but with balance.. superb vinification, modern trend, purity, floral, silky touch. The syrah expresses itself wonderfully. To be tested at least once for lovers of the Rhône Nord.

Toujours l’un des meilleurs rapports qualité/prix/plaisir du Maroc. La syrah solaire, mais à l’équilibre.. vinification superbe, tendance moderne, pureté, floral, toucher soyeux. La syrah s’y exprime à merveille. A tester au moins une fois pour les amateurs du Rhône Nord.
