Another winner. Something with 🐄'a and natural wines. A gem. Get thee some mimolette.

So great, so elegant. There's nothing I love more than a Pinot and gamay blend

One more from last night. Star of the show perhaps. Funky stuff.

Drinking kinda one dimensional and a little reductive at first. I forgot about it til day 2 and then a storm of juicy earthy leathery red fruit and a fresh ass storm of nutty mineral explosion on palate. Plum all over my gustative apparatus.

2013 vintage at Contra in NYC. This was super--a funky and fun Pinot/Gamay blend from Cheverny. Very mineral rich and delicious.

2013 - This wine was meaty right out of the glass, gamey and gorgeous! Stunned to find it was a Pinot/Gammay blend. The nose opened up to show a little more zest, like blood orange, and stone fruit, like plum. On the first sip their was a tingle on the lips, and a chalky minerality on the palate that was light, and smooth. Bright red ruby in the glass. This wine has a lot going on, but not overwhelming!
