Domaine Chanson (Chanson Père et Fils)
Clos du Roi Beaune 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2020
A French burgundy that tastes like a California Pinot (sorry). Cherry, but tannic. — 6 months ago
Domaine Chanson (Chanson Père et Fils)
Marsannay Pinot Noir 2019
Got this in a collector club wine package. Hints of jam, spice and leather. I had this at dinner with a strip steak prepared with thyme, rosemary, garlic and compound butter. The pairing was perfect and the wine didn’t see the next day’s sunrise. — 3 years ago

Cornas Syrah 2021
Popped and poured; something I don’t recommend. This was super lean on Day 1 and hard to even identify as Syrah. However, by Day 3 it’s a different story. The 2021 pours a deep ruby with near opaque core; medium viscosity with significant staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is youthful with notes of red, black and blue fruits, bacon fat, lavender pastilles, and gentle warm spices. On the palate, medium tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is also medium. This is definitely on the leaner side and having had enough of the 2021’s from both the Northern and Southern Rhone, the vintage certainly reminds me a touch of 2014. This needs some time and I suspect patience will be rewarded down the road, just like the 2014’s have proven. Regardless, this is a lighter and more classic vintage. Best after 2028 and through 2040. — 6 months ago

Viré-Clessé Chardonnay 2022
Made with Chardonnay and Chardonnay Muscaté grapes. Medium lemon color with aromas of stone fruits, citrus, honey and floral scents. On the palate flavors of peach, pear and lemon, well balanced, crisp, lively acidity, medium length ending with chalky mineral character. Very nice! Good value! — 7 months ago

La Chanson Chardonnay 2006
Found this in the cellar, where it had been languishing for far too long. No matter, despite the color, it was really wonderful. — 6 months ago
