HAPPY NEW YEAR!

#AgedWineTuesday

Pretty color of peach with a dark golden hue.

Fresh on the nose with limes, raspberries, strawberries, lemons, green apples, herbs, yeast, minerals, spices and light earth.

Medium bodied with medium plus acidity and tiny bubbles.

Dry on the palate with peaches, apricots, apples, raspberries, cherries, spices, herbs, yeast, light brioche, minerals and white pepper.

Long finish with limes and light bitter herbs.

This 18 year old Rosé Champagne is absolutely fantastic. Drinking very fresh right now, elegant and rich.

Showing nice complexity with a nice mouthfeel. Well balanced and very entertaining.

Needed 30 minutes to open up and show its complexity, but good right out of the bottle too.

Wine Enthusiasts 95 points. Wine Advocate 96 points.

Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years.

Easy drinking and good by itself or with food. Delicious stuff.

Pale lemon in color.

Medium in body with medium plus acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing limes, lemons, green apples, light wood, earth, herbs and minerals.

Nice finish with limes and almonds.

This is a very young Sauvignon Blanc from the Loire Valley in France.

I had a few vintages of this wine and it is definitely better with age. Needs 5 years in the bottle to mature properly, but starting to drink nicely now.

This 9 year old Sauvignon Blanc drinks very fresh and young. Elegant and easy drinking.

Good right out of the bottle, and better after 45 minutes of airtime.

Good by itself or with food.

Stunning creation from Clos du Marquis is a testament to the magnificent 2005 vintage. The wine offers an impeccable harmony of rich blackcurrant and plum aromas, intertwined with elegant notes of cedar, tobacco, and subtle spices. Its structured tannins and vibrant acidity create a perfectly balanced palate, while the long, sophisticated finish leaves a memorable impression. A truly remarkable expression of the Saint-Julien terroir that continues to evolve beautifully with time. — 3 days ago

Medium plum-toned ruby in color, with aromas of strawberry, tart red cherry, banana, raspberry, and cranberry. Dry with medium-plus acidity and a medium body. Bright, balanced, and refreshing.

Decanted in the glass for 30 minutes, with bottle open during that time and later. The best wine experience so far. I tried it before on a tasting and was not impressed. Brioche, toast, citrus, apple and racing acidity were still present in my mouth after 2 minutes of taking a sip. I prefer to drink it the way I described at the beginning vs straight from the bottle that was standing in ice. — 20 days ago

My favorite Roilette bottling. Old vine; 90+. This is proof that Cru Beaujolais can age. Darker and heavier than your typical Gamay. Darker fruit, mix of red and black fruit. More structure and a little oak, medium tannins. Becoming harder and harder to source. Have a vertical from 2013 to 2020. — 5 days ago

Lots of promise, great on the nose, but the tannin clamps down hard right now. It has a bright future but isn’t there yet. — 9 days ago
