Purity purity purity. Farming and winemaking so deep in the soul of the earth you can feel and sense it at every turn. Every drop of this wine is blood sweat and tears. Not many can achieve such AND it’s delicious and not at all big or overripe. Well done. — 6 years ago

Baby, it’s cold outside. Falling near 70! The stouts are out! This sleek black beauty has it all! Thick, even lacing in two tone cafe shades, a cumulus attitude. Clean almond and cacao pod with a lemon pith aura. Bee pollen, waterfall rocks and northern oyster shell, including a light brine. Medium mouthfeel and soft minerality prevailas sips reduce the lace to alphabet soup fonts and ultimately horror forests. Unexpectedly clean, with coffee-cola notes and caramelized onion minus the burn. Crispy vanilla that turns creamy with agitation. Steely, smoky, pepper crackers, and bitter violets. #boulevardbrewing #darktruth #kcbeer #stout #dankdark — 9 years ago
Outstanding! Never would have expected this as the pairing for the deconstructed French onion soup dish in the third course at Le Cinq — 9 years ago

Easy-drinking and enjoyable! Great inexpensive option for Sunday dinner on a crisp fall day. Not too rich or heavy, but stood up well against a hearty vegetable soup. — 9 years ago

What a showing. Honeyed apricots. Tangelo. Wow what fruit. Fruit soup. Slate. Stunning. So ebullient and expressive. Herbs and minerals. Just so in the zone. Palate is juicy and elegant. So pure. Citrus and peaches. Amazing freshness and finesse. Stunning length. Awful day and MM to the rescue. — 4 years ago
Classic chambolle. Elegance is the word! Complex and clean nose with red currant, cherry, roses and primordial earthiness. On the palate, seductive elegance with a silky texture and feather like mouthfeel and outstanding linearity. It slowly peels away the complexity with layers of red fruits, roses and the classic limestone undertones. Borniques is biodynamically farmed with winemaking synched with lunar cycles on a small parcel of 1.4 ha situated right above the famous ‘Les Amoureuses’ with vines planted almost on the rock. It explains the very linear structure. The tannins, acidity and alcohol were in brilliant harmony with a finish where the dance continues for well over 2 mins. I loved this and it reminded me why Chambolle-Musigny is one of my absolute favorite villages in Burgundy. — 6 years ago
First course, Cauliflower Puree, Torn Bread, Olive Oil Perfect! @PlateandBottle This is such a Burgundian steal. Thick & creamy to match the soup. Lots of time on lees. Lemon, honeysuckle, green apple, lime, grapefruit pith, butterscotch, butter but not buttery and smooth as velvety silk. This is their best since their 2010. I can’t say enough good things about what this producer achieves from this terroir. — 8 years ago


This is the type of wine u can pair with Hispanic flavors like a tortilla soup or hearty meats pork and steak... maybe soon we can try with fish and vegan foods... this wine excites me for all the right reason ... it is such flavor compliment in a bottle it makes everything u eat with it yummy AF — 9 years ago
Last drink before the work week starts.
A cocktail of whisky, umeshu, chamomile, and honey could probably come close to this. Interesting Chenin. Stank a little out of the bottle (kinda yeasty cheesy aroma) but as it warmed up, everything kinda lifted - aroma, texture, body. Didn't have the weight or concentration of the Chidaine from two days ago. Different beast really, like a rich meat broth vs creamy mushroom soup. — 9 years ago

Expectacular Bourdeux dry, delicate to the palate, long legs and dark red ruby color! Matches great with Onion soup and Berneisse Entrecut — a year ago
