An unconventional white blend from a 4th Growth Chateau on the left bank of Bordeaux.
70% Sauv Blanc, 30% Sémillon, provides a feast of Quincy and lemon peel aromas and flavors. Light and refreshing, young and lively. Dry, and some mineralized mouthfeel. Less than a 1,000 cases produced. Lovely! — 9 months ago

Wow! Just wow! Brick colored Pinot wine looked toast but smelled amazing, full of cherries like Rainer and subtle tones of bees wax. Beautiful fruit soft and aged and mature for sure but damn! This is burgundy — 2 years ago

Prieure Saint-Hippolyte - Languedoc - Blanc

50% Grenache Blanc, 25% Viognier, 25% Vermentino

Nice fresh fruit, dry, Peach, pear, floral, wax, stones.

Not the biggest, baddest, longest aging wine ever, but... a very well made Languedoc Blanc to be enjoyed now, under $15.

Guessing 11-12.5% ABV (label range 11-14), went nicely with an omelette dinner.

2018 vintage. Medium-body. Needs another 3-4 years to drop the bully attitude and false bravado, revealing a delicate and gentle soul beneath. Will likely pick up a case next week as the pricing is pretty good for this 1er Cru and effort. 01.09.25. — 9 months ago

Not a huge Pinot Noir fan and not that educated on it, but this was quite nice. Bright fruit and subtle spice. Paired nicely with goose cassoulet. Medium depth. — 5 years ago

Very enjoyable left bank bottling for $35 on the shelf, if not pretty closed. Decanted for 2+ hours and was just starting to reveal itself, still somewhat shy after 4+. Blackberry, stewed mulberry, earth, coffee grounds, garden, and spice. Not overly ripe or concentrated with a subtle bitter balance. Curious to see what day 2 is like. Good value candidate for cellaring though I wouldn’t hate a bit more acidity. — 10 months ago

Un pinot noir text book.
Excellent!
Couleur : medium garnet
Nez : complexe, poivrons, champignons, cerises, sous bois, très expressif.
Bouche: aussi complexe. Vert, végétal, tanins bien intégrés, acidité bien balancée.
Un très beau et bon vin! — 5 years ago

9.1

There are years where the fickleness of the weather prevent the even ripening of all the grapes on the bunches, and as the grapes cannot be harvested before the stems themselves fully ripen, on these years any extra ripe grapes will detach themselves from the stem while on the “table de tri”(sorting table). Since the traditional Burgundy vinification methods require the grapes to be fermented “entière” (in whole bunches) the loose berries are not used, despite being wonderfully ripe. — 5 years ago

18.5 very special. Such a complete wine, rich but not cloying, very long. Perfect with Stilton. But even better by itself. — 5 years ago
