Lieu Dit Malakoff Pyrenees Shiraz 2019

Herbal, dry, good acidity — tremendous value on discount ($7 a bottle!!). 89+….let’s say 90 to be neighborly. I should buy another case or two. — 5 days ago

Le Haut-Lieu Demi-Sec Vouvray Chenin Blanc 1985

The difference 40 years makes is maybe just a thin wooly blanket.

Pull it back and this thing's full of life - bright, vibrant, gas in the tank.

It’s brighter yellow than tired gold. Theres more fruit than decay. Sour apricots and yellow canned peaches, white popcorn and greasy bacon, and that foggy musk.

Acid rips through and does not give. Barely sweet with the demi-sec tag thats written right there but I'm not buying it.

Tonight this is 40 years old, just gettin' goin, just like me.

Domaine Arnaud Lambert

Brézé Clos de Midi Lieu-Dit Saumur Chenin Blanc 2022

Nose: some funk. Blows off. White flowers.

Palate: sweet fruit. Mineral. Good. Well made. Not too wooly.

Lieu-Dit Saint-Joseph Syrah 2020

Wow hello! Crushed stones, campfire and small red berries all mixed with spicy goodness. Grippy tannins and lively acidity round this off. Rip roaring, full blooded Syrah...love it!!!
