A very nice Chambolle-Musigny. Just a perfect color in the glass. After a swirl the aromas reveal themselves. Quite restrained, with dried flowers and a touch of red fruit on the nose. Silky smooth mouthfeel with well balanced fruit and earth, and a long finish with good acid. Tannins are there but smooth. Delicious with mains at Club Chasse et la Peche in Montreal. — 8 years ago

Happy New Year!
Maybe the Michel Arnould old vines powerhouse is too serious for a lighthearted celebration, but it was just right for father and son wine geeks having New Years dinner alone together for the first time since 1999.

Wednesday night's middle of the week wine is the 2010 Château Gressier Grand Poujeaux. This wine is a blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon and 50% Merlot and made in conjuction with Château Chasse-Spleen.
The nose reveals juicy dark fruit, black cherry, black raspberry, black plum, black currant, licorice, violet floral notes, chocolate and an earthiness.
The palate leads us to the same juicy dark fruits of black cherry, blackberry, black plum, black currant, herbal notes, licorice, violet florals, toasty oak and good earthy notes.
We have a full bodied medium + acidity, medium + gripping tannins that moves right into a long finish with lingering cherry notes straight through. Enjoy the down hill side of your week and continued safe travels. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷 — 7 years ago

Delicious Chateauneuf du Pape; still fruity and aromatic despite the bottle age. Characteristically complex, well blended, and pleasurable in every way. Drank very nicely with Thanksgiving dinner. — 8 years ago

Merveilleux, splendide, une belle année, en famille en Touraine. J'aime beaucoup le petite note de Rabelais en bas de l'étiquette "Le jus de la vigne clarifie l'esprit, chasse la tristesse, donne joie et liesse" (je confirme) — 10 years ago
A great wine at a really affordable price. I was a little concerned about the 2011 vintage, but it didn't have that edge that is usually found with this vintage. — 10 years ago
This is the Old Vines Petite Sirah. Finally found a B & H that was ready to drink 😂. Cherry cola, leather, blood, and varnish. Little hot on the finish or would have rated higher. Plastic cork? Almost blew out my spleen trying to pull it out with a $2.00 gas station corkscrew. — 7 years ago

Really a very nice champagne. Soft but persistent bubbles. Complex nose with lots of yeast and nuts. Great mouthfeel, with lots of lemon. Finished long with good acid and hazelnuts. Delicious by the glass selection at Chasse et la Peche in Montreal. — 8 years ago
