Cornas Syrah 1989

Initially this shows just a trace of threshold level TCA (?), iodine, raw meat, some smoke aromas as well, rich and complex, seems a little more refined that the 1990 Sorrel Hermitage “Le Greal”, but without the incredible depth and sheer power of that wine, another great northern Rhone Syrah!! — 15 days ago

@Doug Powers I love this wine but stopped buying it because of so many off bottles.

@Ira Schwartz, it is SO frustrating that a domaine this great uses crap-ass corks, which was confirmed 37 years AFTER the vintage!!!

Réserve Auguste Favier Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2007

One of my favourite 2007s, and this is my last bottle. And that’s really too bad, it’s still drinking so nicely, still highly enjoyable. — 7 days ago

Les Pierres Blanches Viré-Clessé Chardonnay 2022

Grape: 100% Chardonnay
Region: Viré-Clessé
Producer: Domaine André Bonhomme

What to expect:

* Nose: Ripe lemon, yellow apple, pear, white flowers, a touch of honey.
* Palate: Richer and rounder than Chablis, but fresher and less oaky than many Côte de Beaune whites.
* Texture: Creamy with excellent minerality and a long, saline finish.
* Style: Elegant rather than powerful.

Apples and cream on the nose. Luscious flavors of pear and ripe honeydew with an edgy chalky minerality that keeps it from being cloying. Really lovely wine! My first real taste of white burgundy! — 7 years ago

Renaissance Cornas Syrah 2016

Rich and full bodied. Nose of savoury black plums. So flavoursome - sumptuous, mouth filling and satisfying. One of the more enjoyable reds I’ve had of recent times. From the excellent 2016 vintage. This is the first of 2 bottles. Next one towards the end of 2027 or early 2028. — a month ago

Le Vin des Amis Syrah 2022

Nose is typical Clape, palate is a little thin and austere, in line with the 11.5% abv, but still a good companion for food and friends. — 9 months ago

Day 2 rounds out the edges just enough. Not the best Vin des Amis but worth a try

St. Péray Blanc Marsanne

Deep, rich and enveloped within a delicate creaminess here is a Northern Rhône white that deserves its praise. The fruit is soft and doesn’t overlay the mineral component. I really like this one. — 8 years ago
