Spicy, light, fresh yet with quite some character. Fresh red fruit (strawberries & cherries) with a spice undercore.
On the palate this is light yet with presence and a nice tannic frame. I wasn’t expecting this fragility, but it’s really nice. And despite the lightness this has presence and character.

CV pre dinner tasting. Color lighter than Gavi but nose shows oxidative notes melon ripe fruits. Softer texture roundness on palate. Long grippy finish that’s unexpected. Two more bottles to try. CV second bottle, less oxidative and fresher nose and palate. Upping to 9 — 3 months ago
Light, tingly, perfectly paired with spaghetti and meatballs — a month ago
Reddish in color with a wide reddish rim.
Fruity nose and medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with nice complexity.
Showing raspberries, fresh cherries, light oak, spices, chocolates, coffee and black pepper.
Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.
This is a delicious Grenache from Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Nicely balanced with a nice mouthfeel.
Still young, but already drinking beautifully. Easy drinking right out of the bottle, and will continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years.

I've had a few vintages of this wine, and this vintage is absolutely fantastic. The high alcohol is well integrated already.
Good by itself as a sipping wine or with food.
A blend of 85% Grenache, 5% Syrah, 5% Mourvèdre and 5% local varieties.

What a great wine! Pinot Noir from the Cote Champenois. Very mineral, with some nice red fruit on the palate. You can taste where a Blanc de Noir gets its profile from in this wine. Great to have this “Grand Cru” with some age on it (9 years). I picked up two bottles up in the silent bid auction of the 2025 Wine on Wheels event. Such a lucky buy. Enjoyed with home cooked grilled lamb, sautéed mushrooms with a Sherry reduction, asparagus and wild rice medley. Pretty good, although probably a touch better with something more along the lines of poultry (roast chicken or duck, maybe turkey). — 2 months ago
A bit muted on the nose for the first few hours, this eventually opened up with some raspberry fruit to go along with its mineral backbone. Not quite worth what I paid for it but not terrible either.. — 3 months ago

A gloriously supple and sexy nose. Some sour cherry and dark plum. A hint of young leather and deep pure fruit. Exceptional now — a month ago
