2019 vintage. 100% Chenin Blanc. Helluva bridge wine between Champagne and white Burg. Medium body. Excellent acidity. Some roundness. Some primary fruit and supplemental derivatives. Complicated shizz and for fairly advanced palates. Prom king/queen in its’ own way and for those that have the experience/wherewithal to realize it as such. 2.26.26. — 4 months ago

What is it about excellent Loire Chenin that just really really does it for me? Waxy, honeyed, gorgeous wine. — 3 years ago

Vintage 2021 | Note to self: móre Rousanne. After tasting I put half a bottle in the fridge for 48 hours. Drank it with a baked dab, cichory and baked potatoes. Makes me happy. The wine is Rousanne 40 Grenache 30 and Clairette 30. Much violets in smell and a perfectly balanced taste. — a year ago

Drinking beautifully at 12 years. No chemicals used in the now 70 year old Melon vineyards. Lemon and lime peel, chamomile and a certain unctuousness. Round and very bright palate with a creamy feel from long lees aging with bâtonnage. Nearing its peak. Applaud this Muscadet Sèvre et Maine AOC wine from Edouard Massart. (super pairing with Ottolenghi roasted celery root steaks!) — 5 years ago

Maybe not as amazing as when it was just bottled (which was the last time I had it), but still so fresh, pure, and gulpable. Gamay is so transparent. It really channels the minerality of the terroir it’s grown in. Goes well with my Popeyes spicy chicken (crazy night). — 9 years ago

Second take after a year and the oak has started to integrate. It's still youthful and with a bit of tannic structure but it feels more balanced now. The nose is nice and rather typical with cherry, hay and earthy touches. There is also a black tea note, a bit of vanilla and oak too. The palate is showing a great acid drive, some nice cherry, almost cherry coke notes all along, some nice, sweet mouthfeel, before a bit of drying tannic wall in the rear which feels more oak-induced than anything. The finish is long, elegant, cherry forward, with that drying layer that goes on for a while and a tiny bitter, and almost savoury note. — a year ago

Les chemins de Sève, terre d'aygues, principauté d'orange, 2015, Luc Massart. Grenache, syrah and alicante.

Blood orange, garrigue, olive, strawberry, blackberry and a bit of heat. The plate is very well done with a strong acid backbone, some matter, some bright red fruit, a soft touch on the side but drying tannins in mid palate. Long rather dry finish with a bright fruit. This is a cool wine! — 7 years ago
