Birthday celebration for Anne-Marie. Wonderful gift from my friend @David A Lentine - thanks so much, David.
We have read good things about this wine, and finally we are able to experience it, during a life event.
A wonderful panoply of flowers, vanilla, cinnamon and sweetness excite the senses. On the palette, the wine is prodigious. It has a royal structure, and depth. The palette profile is restrained, yet powerful. Beautiful dark fruits, combine with a sweetness that my wife (and I) loves. A hint of cloves, sweet tobacco and maple finish an outstanding Napa example. 15.5% abv, while relatively high, does not raise its head. This is a benchmark Napa cab. — 10 years ago

Slightly disappointing. A bit funky on the nose but it improved across an hour. A little more vegetal than I like. Perhaps it need food. — 11 years ago

This is a rerun for J & S but this Tricot gamay (masking as a d'aunis) might be my new fave bottle. #hooked — 12 years ago

$15 but seemed like $50. From wine guy next to A&J. Berry but not sweet. Just my style. — 13 years ago

Diaper funk nose, acidity through the body, and sticks a surprisingly elegant landing. (Quizzically upward-intoned "Hmmmm!") — 10 years ago

Lively and fragrant marking clear Burgundian notes, unmistakably PN. Bright red cherry (quite sweet) sweet spices, quite gravelly-mineral, smoky, oak, earthy. Showing good terroir. Still quite undeveloped on the palate, firm grainy tannin, lively vibrant acidity. Lovely length of meaty, smoky, oaky, red fruit, but still not resolved initially. Needs 3-4 years. Great wine in the making. Quite sour cherry. This will be 92+ in a few years — 11 years ago

1996 Jacquart Blanc de Blanc Champagne Chardonnay. Elegant in every way, and a special gift from Fanie (the Superstar!) and Nicolas. Tastes like Speculoos-flavored Meert gauffres, puff pastry, lemon meringue, yellow apple. We had this with an excellent foie gras produced by François, J. Jacques et Benjamin Nauris from Lahosse in France's Landes region. The foie gras was a gift from our dear friends François and Marie Claude in Paris. — 12 years ago

Blanc not Noir. Apple, ripe pear, rolling in my mouth, smooth with a touch of tartness in the finish. Lawn clippings under a shade tree. A plump bird sings on the branch. — 10 years ago

Tricot in a tent. Weightier than I thought but well balanced. Proper acid — 10 years ago

Round flavors of pear and apple, with a touch of citrus, supported by nice vanilla notes and gravelly minerality. A lush wine. Very impressive. — 10 years ago

2013 Far Eastern Loire Gamay, biologique and sans soufre. Wow! Really interesting, and shows the higher altitude at which this Gamay is grown. Nice mouth feel, almost spicy on the tongue with good acidity. All-around a really good wine. Thanks to Flatiron Wine for introducing me. — 11 years ago
