Perfumed, floral, impossibly pretty. Ethereal, pure, gossamer, whisper-light but complete. One of the most elegant red Burgundies I have ever tasted. — 7 days ago

Might just be the best Rose Champagne. Nothing like this. Scarlett color, ripe strawberry, red beet, pink peppercorn, hibiscus. — 5 years ago

A very unique wine. Needs time to open. Notes immediately of fresh raspberries then opens up more with notes of salt on tomato. — 5 years ago

LoireTasting #6 - cab franc serie
Deep garnet color, thick (not filtered, not glued) Beautiful evolved notes - red fruits, licorice, pomegranate, and many shades between undergrowth, spices etc. developing during tasting. A Loire wine that has magnificently endured 18 years in cellar and needs to take the time to open.

Robe grenat profonde, épaisse (non filtrée, non collée) Belles notes évoluées - fruits rouges, réglisse, grenade, et nombreuses nuances entres sous-bois, épices etc. se développant en cours de dégustation. Un vin de Loire qui a magnifiquement supporté 18 ans de garde et qui a besoin de prendre le temps de s’ouvrir. — 3 years ago

I've never had sparkling gamay (this isn't a blend). Lots of fizz! Cranberry, candy, and rambutan! Bone dry.

9.4

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of a few hours. Black plastic cork; the standard for Dard et Ribo. The 2015 “Les Rouges des Baties” pours a deep, dull ruby/purple with a near opaque core; medium viscosity with moderate staining of the tears and some sediment. On the nose, the wine is vinous with notes of wild black brambles, oil cured olive, roasted meat, purple flowers, black pepper, a mix of organic and inorganic earth and dried herbs. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long. An utterly beautiful expression of Crozes-Hermitage and this worked really well with goose from South Dakota. I’m smitten. Drink now through 2035. — 5 months ago

Color is medium-red, oak barrel notes, but in nice balance to the red cherry aromas and flavors, nice acid, medium-long finish, very good Alsatian Pinot Noir, which I expect will go very well with our grilled Canadian wild sockeye salmon! — 4 years ago

Great value for the price. Very fresh, crisp, dry wine with green apples and grapefruit notes. Pleasant acidity, not as „stingy” as usually Picpoul is. Perfect companion to simple spaghetti with olive oil, pizza with white sauce or any friend who just steps by to talk about summer vacations in the South of France. — 5 years ago

Goodness the value of a value Merlot based bottle of tastiness. Purpley it is. But it isn’t just purple drapes, there is a pot of hot spiced tea bubbling and someone is puffing a cigar just outside the window. Where are you looking to through this wine window? At your friends. Wearing purple masks but they are there for you. — 5 years ago
