Vin de Terroir Granite Crown Syrah Blend 2000

Opening granite crown is always a treat. So much warmth and spice left in it, a marvel as this was the first vintage that Gideon bottled I believe — 15 days ago

Grands Vins de Bourgogne Puligny-Montrachet Chardonnay 2024

This Puligny-Montrachet stayed true to its heritage. Mineral and chalk my on the nose. Well rounded on the palate with a crisp start and light acidic follow through that pairs perfectly with Thanksgiving appetizers. Vive la France — 22 days ago

Les Vins de Vienne (Cuilleron Gaillard Villard)

Crozes-Hermitage Syrah 2019

Last of three bottles of this delicious Crozes. Nose is all over the place, with an initial funky (poopy) note that blows off quickly to reveal minerals, orchid florals, roasted asparagus, roast beef, dark fruit, and granitic minerality. Intense but beautifully balanced in the mouth. Soft textured and very savory/ minerally. Such a ridiculous value. Sorry to drain the last one but happy while draining it! — 10 days ago

@Tom Casagrande, this label is a collaboration between the three Cote Rotie winemakers, no?

Vintage 2019 | Walking on a barnyard, vanilla, stinky (positive!). Plums. Character. Good acidity, pleasant bitters. Balanced. Spices, cherries. As always tasted blind. In my notes: screames for a cheese. — 4 days ago
