Gigondas Red Rhone Blend

The 2019 vintage is 95 percent Grenache. Not over the top fruit but a nice complement to our chili dinner. September 2026. — 8 days ago

Arcane XIX Le Soleil Grenache Blend

Vintage 2015 | morello cherries in smell, for me always a hint to Syrah. Juicy, good balance. The swallow factor while tasting… Very good. — 8 months ago

Arcane XV Le Diable Mourvedre

Enjoyed at parallax. Fruit forward, smells like a French wine but drinks like a Cali blend. — 6 years ago

The Paul Pernot wines have always underwhelmed me. Pity.

Les Vins de Vienne (Cuilleron Gaillard Villard)

La Chambée Condrieu Viognier 2022

This is a balanced, elegant Condrieu. It’s got rich, juice-oozing ripe fruit (only slightly tropical) on the nose, but not in an over-the-top way. There’s also a lightly smoky minerality. Soft and richly flavored in the mouth, but, again, somehow in a balanced way. Acids a little in the low side but heck, it’s Viognier. In a word, elegant. — 2 months ago

Cuvée Anonyme Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend

Mature and drinking well with complex aromas and flavors of strawberry, black cherry, blueberries, lavender, thyme, graphite, leather, grilled meat and turned earth. Mineral edge on a long finish - plenty of life left in this well-made wine. Mostly Grenache (60%) with 25% Mourvèdre and some other local varieties (but no Syrah it seems). — 4 months ago
