This 2021 lacks balance and beauty. A little rough, not without interest, has underbrush, and coffee aromas, tart fruits. Pricey at $39. — 5 months ago

Very intense aromas and flavors, on the young and edgy side with purity and nervous minerality. Tight sour cherry mid palate surrounded by incense and cinnamon. Elegant and polished. — 7 months ago

2021, another very racy laser beam of a Sancerre with mostly herbal and mineral characteristics. Very subtle fruit in the way back. Chives green peppers, oregano, with a splash of salinity. — 4 months ago
2021 Assyrtiko from “the slopes of Algialeia” . So Good. Bright, refreshing, full of verve. Citrus blossoms, orange peel and lemon. Minerality throughout. A hint of sea spray. Reminds me of a Premier Cru Chablis. About $24. A bottle. — 5 months ago
This 2029 is elegance in a bottle. One of the most feminine, lithe Grenache’s I’ve ever had. An almost indescribable mid palate. Like a ruby with a thousand facets. Wonderful soothing lingering black tea finish. — 3 months ago
This 2022 is a really great Sancerre. Green notes like beach peas and boxwood with a full mid palate rich with melon, underripe peaches and Bosc pear. A hint of tarragon and chives and other herbs. Just shy of $40 a bottle but worth it. — 5 months ago
2020 Sauvignon Blanc from this obscure Loire tiny region. Every time I fancy myself as a Loire expert, I get sideswiped by something new and unexpected. This is a lean green restraint driven marvel. Chives, basil, underripe papaya on nose. White snd pink grapefruit rinds with lime peel mid palate. Everything is being held back with extreme tension. Finishes with the slightest hint of passion fruit which lingers for a minute or more, Impressive, bitter, intense, intriguing. — 7 months ago

Such a perfect example of what Chablis has to offer. Gorgeous golden color which perfectly reflected the fall foliage in the mountain setting I was drinking it on. Stoney and rounded. Pure apple and pear fruits with a hint of lemon. — a month ago
