Roses de Jeanne La Haute Lemblé Brut Blanc de Blancs Champagne Chardonnay

Killer BdB. Intense acid, lemon curd, and some awesome sea aromas (not salinity). Would love to revisit in 8 years — 3 years ago

Last suitcase wine from brought home from Corsica. On the nose, ruby grapefruit, ocean spray (real ocean, not the juice), minerals. In the mouth, very saline with citrus, white flowers and excellent minerality. Long finish. Solid wine. — 5 years ago

Haute Victoire Quincy Sauvignon Blanc 2017

Nose has freshly mowed field, spring rain, light salinity, grapefruit peel and white florals.

Palate has refreshing tart (medium) lemon/grapefruit blend, wet grassy notes and great Kimmeridgian core.

Great QPR, Quincy is a wonderful alternative to Sancerre, and well worth a market search. A lightly imported AOC, but also be on the lookout for Menetou-Salon and Reuilly, which neighbor Quincy to the East and West, respectively.

Pumonte Vin de Corse Calvi Vermentino 2012

Vintage 2012 - wine from #corse #corsican local grapes #nielluciu and #sciaccarello The wine has very clear evolution, giving a rooftile brown rim. The smell of a stable, positive stinking! Also raspberries liquor, plums, a bit dusty impression in taste with a nice bitter at the end. The smell of the wine from these curious grapes reminded me a bit of Burgundy. — 7 years ago

Vintage 2015 / No sulphites. No filtering. 3 months on amphora, 4 months on barrique. Mix of authentic grapes #nielluciu #sciaccarello #minustello #carcaghjolu #morescone that makes this #corsicanwine very enjoyable. Rich and refined. Pretty round. Some roses. Frivolous. I like it very much. — 6 years ago

Cuvée O'Byrne Bordeaux Red Bordeaux Blend 2016

2016 vintage. One of the best wines to be found under the humble "Bordeaux Supérieur" appellation. Very elegant with bright crisp red fruit and a minty freshness. Impeccable balance and very good length. As always very reliable. Highly recommended. — 4 years ago

Fairly young and complex white. Modest gold color. Not as good as the ‘18, but intriguing. Starts off as Sauv Blanc and then blends in lots of melons. Medium plus thickness. Very nice. — 4 years ago
