Le Prieuré d'Arras Saint-Joseph Syrah 2015

100% Syrah from vines that’s are 10-65 years old and managed manually for the most part. Fermented in concrete and aged for two years in barrels of various sizes but mostly larger (225L-600L). Popped and poured. This bottle took about ten minutes to open but when it did, ohhhhh baby! On the nose it was a mix of blue fruits, dark cherry, and a high end yoga studio...you know, the ones with incense of sandalwood, gardenia and bergamot...basically everything but the patchouli. On the palate, things got even more interesting with firm blue fruits, tart dark cherries, lightly spiced meats and minerals. The finish lasts for five minutes. In fact, there is crazy effect after a couple of minutes that reminds me of Acmella oleracea (Sichuan buttons or buzz buttons). Absolutely wild! Never had a wine do that. No doubt, this is a Saint-Joseph of the highest level. Definitely a producer to keep an eye out for. — 4 years ago

@Peter van den Besselaar Ha! Thanks...it’s an association thing so I figure I might as well share exactly what it reminds me of. @Josh Morgenthau the Sechuan button thing is crazy but I wasn’t the only one who remarked at it.

The Velvet Devil Washington State Merlot 2016

I fell in love with this wine at the same time I fell in love with a guy 800 miles away but he was really lovely and had good taste so this wine is actually pretty great. Velvety like middle school yoga pants, like smooth jazz in a cool retro lounge in downtown Indianapolis, like milk with spaghetti. For a $12 bottle it's fresh like a new j crew sweater and cozy like one too. — 6 years ago

Superiore Vecchioflorio Marsala 2017

Bent my mind which honestly, could use some yoga at least. Nuttiness is my fave tasting note but there’s Christmas and a cedar hope chest in there sluiced with some lemon zest. But my most honest review will always be my synesthesia between wine and clothes so here goes: Suede pant suit in burgundy and beige the top and bottom half of each. Bam. — 2 years ago

Domaine Bernard Baudry

La Croix Boissée Chinon Cabernet Franc 2018

Delectable Wine
9.6

The ripeness of the 2018 vintage gives an almost Syrah/Viognier character to the Chinon La Croix Boissée, which offers sweet black fruit and a creamy apricot note. Sumptuous yet never ever opulent, it's almost as if the wine's just done a yoga class. Plentiful tannins give the inside of your cheeks a chalky rub, while there's surprising freshness considering the ripeness, leading to a lengthy finish. This is a baby that will turn out to be a great adult. (Rebecca Gibb MW, Vinous, October 2021)
