Lovely honey and mineral aromas and flavors in this 20-year-old northern Rhone, solid acidity, rich and quite viscous, lingering finish, has held up very well!! — 9 days ago

A great President once asked, “Is our children learning?” You’ve gone from entering your notes 8 times to 2. So the answer to that timeless question is yes.”🤣💯

Beautiful Loire Cabernet Franc, just a touch of green in the fruit, but with that cool climate feel, long finish, terrific wine, thanks to Eric Texier for telling us (my wine group) that Lenoir was making great Cab Franc!! — 5 months ago

@Doug Powers Love the Texier anecdote

Doug Powers

@Ira Schwartz, all true, he took us to Domaine Chamonard (we were so cold tasting there that our teeth were literally chattering), also Lapalu and Janin in Beaujolais, always in his own cellars, and we’d spend a day at the Marche aux Vins in Ampuis!! In addition to making fabulous wines himself, Eric was so generous with his knowledge and connections, Lenoir in Chinon being another one!!

Ira Schwartz

@Doug Powers I know it’s all true. Some of the wine folks I hang out with are close to him and every time he would visit NYC they would have dinners with him.
