Floral bouquet and very young raspberry and black cherry immediately hit you after pouring this one into the glass. Immediately you know that you have committed infanticide. As you are contemplating what to do, you are Sinister hand pours a glass of this for you to get a nice with this one on a more personal level. Boysenberry, black fruit, a little bit gamey. Yet, a little bit youthful and floral. What the hell is going on here!? The Sinister hand forces this one to your mouth, to enjoy an immense pallet of black cherry, wild berry pie. The middle of this one dries to a dehydrated red fruit character. Finishes long, with the perfect pairing being leftover Halloween candy from your 4 year old who already forgot she went trick-or-treating this year. So good on so many levels, and this one is still insanely tannic. I give it another 10 or 15 years easily. I would say this is the most immense wine in the Calais lineup other than the Gravitas. Still drank insanely well. — 6 years ago

Must be open for at least an hour. Freeze dried strawberries, sweet car exhaust (not kidding here), and pine. Alcohol also shows. Simple yet brooding palette of fresh dark fruit. Super fine tannins grip and hold you through the long finish. I think this wine is just past peak but it was a good value. — 7 years ago

This #viogier from #chenebleu is showing so much better than it was 21 weeks ago. The nose and palate showed gorgeous aromatics and ripe delicious fruit. The weight was heavy but still sleek and elegant at the same time. — 8 years ago

There's Sancerre then there is stuff like this. We import Vatan, so I can't say it's the best SB in the book, but it's certainly one of the best. Rare that I can drink SB. — 10 years ago

Beautiful red fruit. Fruit forward for a burgundy. Delicate, though not as delicate as a Chambolle-Musigny. — 10 years ago

Really enjoyed this wine. Pleasing citrus (lemon) and mineral notes. Balanced with a pleasing finish. This is so refreshing. A welcome addition to a summer BBQ or paired with pasta. Better stock up as this one goes down way too easily! Great QPR! — 6 years ago

This was unbelievable! My wife and I were simply stunned at the beautifully nuanced Pinot Noir grapes. Easily one of my favorite champagnes in a long time (MV09) — 7 years ago

Really wonderful rich Pinot fro Alsace ! It was definitely a'bit pricy where I had it but still lovely - around $70 at the restaurant. Rich Pinot Noir with lots of old world minerality plus rich perfectly ripe fruit. Drank it with braised rabbit - pork belly and bacon baked beans - could have drank it alone . Fantastic ! — 9 years ago
