Grosjean Frères

Vallée d'Aoste Gamay 2023

This wine has a light ruby tint to it. The nose is gorgeous. Fruit is the star, cherry and strawberry aromas, but a delicious earthy note adds complexity. The palate is just as juicy, and an earthy note pulls the fruit together here as well. The tannins are fairly tame, but the acidity is refreshing. Overall, it's a great wine for sipping, salads, or seafood. — 4 months ago

Domaine Pierre Usseglio & Fils

Réserve des Deux Frères Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2000

Decanted for about 2-3 hours before serving. Incredible nose and flavor profile. Very gamey. Lots of stewed fruit. Little medicinal. But came through and paired exceedingly well with lamb kebabs.

Had a little funk as it aired out but really sang at hour 4-5. Good grip. Will be excited to open the next one

Les Bessards Hermitage Syrah 2010

Not what I expected i assumed elegance and was surprised that it was so full of fruit at this age. Another 5 yrs would help but right now it so pleasurable. — 6 months ago

Huré Frères

Invitation Brut Champagne Blend

Lyle Fass
9.2

2018 base. 4 grams dosage and disgorged 4/22. Nose is all wet earth and yeast. Lemon peel, toast, citrus (tangelo?) skin as well. Really nice, layered and complex aromas. Lonely, mineral and tree bark aromas as well. Palate is juicy and clean with explosive lemon and grapefruit citrus fruit and terrific purity and freshness. Good sap and very clean. Needs air as I reckon this has more to tell. Nose gets some saline as well with air and the palate becomes juicier. It’s very good but so far not special. Really has good palate presence. — 6 months ago

CIX Sonoma Coast Chardonnay 2015

An exceptional wine. Aubert never disappoints (CIX and Lauren vineyards are my favorites). Creamy and complex. Candied ginger, pear, and lemon zest. — 7 months ago

Seigneur de Maugiron Côte-Rôtie Syrah 2000

Lovely vibrant aromas of garrigue, violet, black cherry, dried cherry, forest floor, blackberry, leather. At 25 years this is still wonderfully fresh with an exceptional finish. Lovely wine — 8 months ago

Chante-Perdrix Cornas Syrah 2020

2020 vintage. Decent value for Cornas. Big body. Lots of smoke and fruit with structure but not as much as Cornas usually invoices for. Hyperactive and needs to relax somewhat. Maybe in 3-5 years? Has 9.3 potential in there somewhere. 3.6.24. — 2 years ago

Willamette Valley Pinot Noir 2022

This medium bodied Oregon Pinot displays a range of aromatic flavors and notes. In addition to raspberries there are underlying notes of mushroom and leather.
Excellent pairing with aged Ribeye Steak and family.

UV Vineyard Pinot Noir 2015

Pop and pour. A majestic medium dark ruby red color. On the nose: expressive notes of cherry, strawberry, soy sauce, sandalwood, forest floor, floral. Taste: lush, chalky, juicy wine with cherry/strawberry/raspberry, loamy soil, minerals, saline, and a spiced black tea/pine medium plus finish. YUM! — 6 months ago

Beaux Frères

The Upper Terrace Pinot Noir 2021

Probably still a little young, but otherwise a really great bottle. Dark transparent ruby, with a woody-er edge to it. Some cherry pie, herbs, baking spices and tar aromas. Strong structure, making it feel young. Pretty large body for an Oregon Pinot! Going to age well for awhile. — 8 months ago

CIX Vineyard Pinot Noir 2022

Solid Pinot. Understated to the point of being a bit too mild. Drank easily but lacked complexity. On the other hand it wasn’t an American Pinot fruit bomb. — 9 months ago

I’m not a fan of Aubert’s pinots. I stick with his chards…
