Fruits are fresh and run juicy to dry. Black plum, blackberries, dark raspberries, bit of stewed strawberries, tannins are dusty/gritty, leather, spicebox, baking spices, dark powdery minerals, good acidity, balance and finish. Check it again in 8-10 years but good for 20 years. — 9 years ago

White. My typo. No worries, I'll attend and drink your wine. 👍👌

I've had just as many disappointing aged wines as I've had new wines, doesn't seem to make a difference, all depends on ones palate.

As you know wine closes down in the bottle. From there it goes through cycles of "good time to open" and "not a good time to open." May I suggest a plan B? Maybe, invest in a Coravin. I did and it's fantastic!!!

Trader Joe's can make decent wines, apparently. Good table wine. Would get it again for a weeknight dinner or to share with my friends. — 11 years ago

Bière brune qui titre à 9.2. Mousse abondante, et petit arrière goût de caramel boisé. Pour moi, une de mes brunes favorites — 10 years ago

"La Cueille" Bugey-Cerdon Sparkling Gamay Poulsard

Super geeky sparkling gamay from a cru of bugey. Star of the day! Bright, tart berries, beautiful sugar/acid balance for a 8% wine. Bubbles were quite intense, more along the lines of a demi-sec. Can't wait to pour for Thanksgiving. — 10 years ago

Very good wine for the price. Perfect for a weekday evening. Dry but very comfortable. — 11 years ago
