Chenin Blanc 2020
LoireTasting #2 - chenin serie
Dry and mineral, the silica soil brings a less vivid character than other versions of the Chenin, but brings a consistent material and a certain roundness, on smoky notes, gun stone, honey, gingerbread, and vegetable. Franc final. Interesting approach to nature. Certainly very good on white meat.
Sec et minéral, le sol de silice apporte un caractère moins vif que d’autres version du Chenin, mais apporte une matière consistante et une certaine rondeur, sur des notes fumées, pierre à fusil, miel, pain d’épice, et végétal. Finale franche. Abord nature intéressant. Certainement très bon sur une viande blanche. — 2 years ago
Domaine Breyton
Crozes-Hermitage Syrah 2019
Nice organic Croze, a little closed at first, but develops well during tasting. Floral notes and fruity first, mint-minhole herb touch in a second step, something between the mineral and the notes liquorice in the distance. Final a little frank but very correct overall. 3.7
Croze bio sympa, un peu fermé de prime abord, mais se développe bien en cours de dégustation. Notes florales et fruités d’abord, touche herbacée mentholé es dans un second temps, quelque chose entre le minéral et les notes reglissées dans le loin. Finale un peu franche mais très correct dans l’ensemble. 3,7 — 3 years ago

Comte Tolosan Malbec 2020
Comte Tolosan Malbec from Lidl. Such great, sharp, fruity flavour that's not sweet. Almost perfect, just lacking that luxury. — 2 years ago

Francois de Nicolay
Coteaux de Champlitte Chardonnay 2018
Surprising négoce wine by François de Nicolay of Chandon de Briailles, one of our favorite producers in Savigny-les-Beaune/Corton. This is 100% Chardonnay sourced from organic/biodynamic vineyards in the Coteaux de Champlitte, a little known appellation north of Jura, in the in the Franche-Comté department. Expressive nose. Vibrant, lovely nose of crisp green apple. Fresh, medium-bodied, mineral, great texture, good acidity — a year ago
