Châteaux De Rieux

Domaine Dehours

Mareuil le Port Les Rieux Coteaux Champenois Champagne Blend 2012

Айва, желтый грейпфрут, лимонные цукаты, моченое яблоко, устричные створки, мел. Цвет с легкой вуалью. Объемная, чуть смазанная натуральная фруктовость подпирается вертикальной кислотностью с яркой, контрастной минеральностью. Структурно и глубоко, немного упрощенно на средних частотах, чуть разбалансированно, но выразительно и харизматично. — 8 years ago

Rare brut bubbly Gaillac. Light fruity with demi-sec bite on the middle, fading to smooth sours. Truely delicious. Thanks Lisa! — 9 years ago

Château Caronne Ste. Gemme

Haut-Médoc Red Bordeaux Blend 2004

Pierpaolo Petrassi MW
9.0

2004 was an average Bordeaux vintage but the better Châteaux made good wines. This reliable Crû Borgeois was a case in point with nice cassis fruit balanced by judicious oak & a lovely freshness. Pleasing hints of cedar & tobacco creeping in to add complexity. Showing very well for an 11 year old wine. Fab. — 10 years ago

ZD Wines

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

Founded in 1969 by two rocket scientists, ZD takes its name not only from its founders, Norman de Leuze and Gino Zepponi, but also from the engineering term Zero Defects. Sleek in its design, but with serious thrust, comparisons could be made to Corison or Montelena Estate, as well as some Left Bank Châteaux. Tart cranberry, cherry, and plum abound with purity, followed by 70% cacao, fresh pine, and damp cedar. Some secondary coconut oil adds a slightly exotic feel to an otherwise old school, savory-styled Napa Cab. Excellent. 93+ — 8 years ago

@Ron R - I use the term Gopher somewhat accurately. @Isaac Pirolo can find deals that no one else can and that cannot be replicated.

@Ron R - I totally agree with you. There’s something about north of $75 that makes me want ultra outstanding. Entry level Myriad, RM, Quivet all live south of that point and are great!!

Domaine des Homs

Petit Grain des Abeilles Pur Jus de Muscat

In English and French


- A grappe juice ! Why ? Because grappe juice is the base of all wine !
So lets have a look to the "genèse".

Petit Grain Des Abeilles 2015 Domaine Des Homs (Minervois). Muscat. Organic and unfiltered.

That's gold !

Im falling in a thousand flowers field.
Jasmin, Aloe Vera, litchi, honey and pollen.
Fantastic.

Bewitched !
Flowers, White flowers, sugar and acidity are perfectly balanced. Smooth.
Finish : Jasmin flower. Hmmmmmm.

This is clearly the best white grappe juice than i ever drinking. Balanced, pleasant and long for 4.4 €.

- Un jus de raisin ? Mais pourquoi ? Simplementpar ce que le jus de raisin est la base de chaque vin ! Alors parlons en.

Bio et non filtré.

C'est une chute dans un champ de fleurs, la variété des parfums est large, le miel, le pollen, le jasmin et la litchi dominent. C'est très agréable.

Envoûtant !
Le sucre et l'acidité sont parfaitement équilibrées, l'acacia, la litchi et le miel se partagent la bouche.
C'est grand ! La finale est longue sur le jasmin.
Je me délecte !

De toute évidence c'est le meilleur jus de raisin blanc que j'ai bu jusqu'à ce jour.
Son équilibre, sa complexité et sa fraîcheur en fin un jus de chaque instant.

4.4 € est définitivement un très bon prix.
