Loved the description on the website saying “It's the wild and mysterious light-bodied red that makes Pinot Noir taste like a Republican.” So true. Light chillable red. Cherry blood orange acidity hint of pepper and wet stones. No “funk” here just subtle earthy delight. — 6 years ago

Stage 17 hits the high Alps at #tourdefrance 2017. This is an odd one that I seem to get every year (not a ton available from the Alps). Good acid with some funky notes. A bit of sweet fruit and pit fruit. Variety light no other is one reason we love Le Tour. — 8 years ago

Total wine revelation while chilling with my son--brilliant violet with translucent rim, Bretty nose with leather and red currants, spicy and tangy purple berry flavors, iron and brine and a kiss of dusty tannins to finish. Feels and tastes like it came from the foothills of the Alps. Zero issues draining the entire 500ml bottle like a juice box. Would seek out this obscure Portuguese gem again for sure--and maybe let it go longer! — 8 years ago

The wine is made from 75% Pinot Noir grapes and 25% Chardonnay, grown in the foothills of the Alps. It fizzes like crazy and maintains its bubbles nicely. Pink? It's practically orange. The nose is a beautiful floral spray of roses, lilacs and lavender. A sweet apple aroma comes from beneath that and brings lovely cherry and strawberry smells. The palate brings that wonderful alpine terroir and acidity, with a touch of toast. It's as dry as a bone, yet with an underlying sweetness that faintly peeks through. — 9 years ago

I honestly thought of Julie Andrews running though the alps when I tasted this. Like honestly, it just popped into my head. — 9 years ago

A lively crisp Chardonnay fleshing out nicely at 7 years in a very good place. From the cool climate Beechworth area in the gravelly soils in the foothills of the Victorian Alps. Great balance - not too lean and not too Dolly Parton. Savaterre is a neighbour of Giaconda , one of Australia’s best Chardonnays. — 6 years ago

My first wine from the Savoie District in south eastern France near the foothills of the Alps. Thanks @Anthony Lombardi to awakening me to this district. Mondeuse performs well here. This wine had earthy mocha notes with a hint of tar. Barely medium weight , lacking in mid palate fruit power like we see in the Barossa for example coming from a much cooler environment here in Savoie. We see very little Mondeuse in Australia - Brown Brothers used to use it in a blend with Shiraz which was very long lived. Ultra Savoury and very good. Vive Le Difference! — 8 years ago

Moving from Bevan to Kimberly tonight. Gorgeous wine. Truly has benefited from time in bottle. Great complexity, but will only get better with additional age. The nose shows dried strawberries, dried cranberries, and pine. The aromatics are reminiscent of the Swiss alps in autumn. The palate is bright and lush, sweet dried cherry, cranberry, spice, white mushroom, and earth. Finishes with more spice and some pepper. — 8 years ago

Superb. Beautiful nose, very aromatic. Tropical fruits, Meyer lemon, slightly oxidative and buttery. On the palate: great texture, bright, mineral, super ripe pineapple, and refreshing acidity. A treat from the French alps. — 6 years ago

Here’s a link to the back story on this once popular Provençal/alps aperitif now interesting to me because of the White Negroni cocktail and the fabulous label. https://spiritsreview.com/reviews/kina-lavion-d-or/ — 7 years ago

Lemon essence, thyme and stone-filled grassy meadows greet the nose. That bright lemon vibe remains on the palate followed by salty minerality on the lengthy finish. It's almost as if the wine was made from a parcel carved out of Sancerre and then placed high in the Alps. — 8 years ago

I know all of you sommeliers are drinking a perfect glass of history. think of the great william wallace. so while your drinking your glass of history by the wood burning fireplace let me explain this fantastic out of this world the most buck for your money. so I just recently bought a cork screw and turned it into a lewer (no pun intended) and so we began training. bottle 1 was corked and it was like the Aspen alps the crisp earth flavor and then it hit me. I am now in training to be a sommelier. jerkin off is now my #2 thing on my mind. I take a sip and I wish all you sommeliers in training good luck. — 8 years ago

This is the greatest Cider producer in the world. Jacques is making "next level" ciders. This one comes from an ancient apple orchard in the pristine Alps. — 9 years ago
