Domaine De La Grand'Cour (Jean-Louis Dutraive)
Chapelle des Bois Fleurie Gamay 2023
Pure drudgery in a bottle! Way too much VA plus all the microbial funk that happens when the bretty shit hits the fan! I can't believe the producer actually thought this would be a good idea to put on the market! I have had 1 decent Dutraive a 2018 Chenas awhile back but this is just bleck!!! — 10 hours ago
Eeeuuuww.
Extra ewww I should've known this would be gross when I read a bad review on cellartracker!
Grifalco di Lucania
Aglianico del Vulture 2021
@Tegan Marriott just bought the 2022 a few weeks back. The tannins sound challenging! Looking forward to trying it. Not sure if I’ve ever had an Aglianico.
Don't let the tannins sway you. This was better on the 2nd day. Very similar to a sagrantino in tannic profile.
Els Jelipins
Penedès Sumoll 2022
@Tegan Marriott Sounds like quality producers and intriguing wine minus the VA. Never heard of that grape before.
Yes it's an indigenous varietal that's exclusively grown in Penendes. High acidity that beckons for rich foods!

A dude who knows a great deal about Vermont's apples has again created this great rendition from the 2024 harvest. A safe bet year after year! — 2 hours ago
