Domaine des Fines Caillottes Pouilly-Fumé Sauvignon Blanc 2021
Excellent. Good minerality, light but layered. Really good entry-level Pouilly-Fume. 2021 vintage. — 9 months ago

Coeur de Roches Meursault Chardonnay 2019
2019 vintage. Obvs super youthful and that translates here to a large, super fresh lime component. Better than good mineral presence. The crisper side of Meursault. — 3 years ago
Domaine des Roches Neuves (Thierry Germain)
Les Mémoires Saumur-Champigny Cabernet Franc 2021
This is bonkers good. So fresh. Berries, currant, sage, some flowers, cherries, some pepper and herbs, good acidity, long tart lovely finish. Killer cab franc. — a month ago

Prestige des Fines Caillottes Pouilly-Fumé Sauvignon Blanc 2017
Kurt birthday wine. Still really great but liked the way it drank a few years ago. Would go younger on vintage. Maybe 3 years old instead of 7. — 2 years ago

Domaine Les Roches (Alain et Jérome Lenoir)
Chinon Cabernet Franc 2005
@Doug Powers Love the Texier anecdote
@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!!
@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.

not the loudest nose, essence of strawberry and raspberry, but not sweet. mouthfeel is very light, one of the better cab francs i’ve ever had. — 10 days ago
