Clos des Chênes Volnay 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2000

Quite light medium ruby, with wide garnet rim . Quite a lot of spicy darker fruits , with blackberry , dark cherry , very fruit driven still , floral hints . On the palate there good density and bright acidity , quite rounded ripe but gritty tannin , with a quite sweet spiced darker fruit profile , with a touch of anise , earth and dark cherry on the medium length finish . This is drinking well and still showing quite a lot of fruit , quite rounded and ample in style . From now and over the next 5 or so years . — 2 months ago

La Fauquette Arbois Chardonnay

No clue if this is the cuvee I have because the menu has pas de info. But it's a strong expression of violence and heart. — 19 days ago

Beaune-Grèves 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2015

PJW #6 - Totally classic burgundy, redolent fruit (cherries) yet soft tannins, minimal acidity, on the lighter side, long beautiful finish, excellent. Lean more toward pork/poultry with this one — a month ago

Michel Rolland

Clos de los Siete Valle de Uco Malbec Blend 2020

A fairly ambitious Malbec blend with Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Petit Verdot, and Cabernet Franc. Dry on the palette with flavors of plum, blackberry, licorice, bitter tobacco, earth, coffee, with raisins and cherry Ludens on the finish. With each sip I can pick out every grape, if I try real hard. Quite tannic, and my 2nd glass will be in an hour or more, after it catches its breath.
A very enjoyable bargain!

Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc 2023

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of 90 minutes. The 2023 pours a straw color with medium viscosity. On the nose, the wine is developing with powerful notes of tart and ripe, citrus and tropical, fruit: grapefruit, passionfruit, white and yellow flowers, alfalfa, jalapeño pepper, and flinty minerals . On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+. Drink now. — 2 months ago

Domaine Louis Michel

Montmain Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay

Lemon peel, mineral air, lemon oil, the sea.

Oyster shell, subtle lemon oil, minerality.

Very elegant style. Martini-like mouthfeel and texture.

Really lovely expression of Chardonnay especially in stark contrast to California style chards from Sandhi and Matthiasson. Wow, Chablis. I love Chablis.
