Comte De Charme

Château de Pibarnon (Comte de Saint Victor)

Nuances Comte de Saint Victor Bandol Mourvedre Rosé 2021

Salmon in color.

Fresh nose with red berries, and medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with red fruits, citrus, earth, spices, apples and minerals.

This Single Vineyard Rosé is elegant and nicely balanced. Complex and interesting. Fruit forward with enough earth notes to compliment it.

Still very young, and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly. Would be nice to revisit it in 5 years. Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years.

A good sipping wine that will pair nicely with food too.

A blend of 95% Mourvedre with 5% Clairette. Aged in concrete vats for 9 months.

14% alcohol by volume.

91 points.

$55.

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 — 9 months ago

Clos du Four Mâcon-Milly-Lamartine Chardonnay

My favorite Macon Chard. This wine drinks so much higher than its cost. Green apple, lemon curd, used oak, acidic, full bodied. Excellent with cheese, cream sauce. Love to pair it with an Alfredo Chicken pizza. — 5 months ago

Bonnes Mares Grand Cru Pinot Noir 2015

(En Magnum)…One to live forever, but with proper aeration it’s plenty giving, perfumed and seductive with a powerful, vibrant and structured palate with killer Grand Cru density and stunning length that seemingly never dissipates. For the long haul! — 6 months ago

Bandol Rosé Blend 2022

Light orange in color.

Light nose and medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing raspberries, strawberries, currants, lemons, peaches, spices, sea salt and light earth.

Tangy finish with grapefruits and limes.

This is a young Rosé from Bandol. Spicy and fruit forward. Elegant with a soft mouthfeel.

Nicely balanced and already showing nice complexity.

Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years.

Good right out of the bottle and good by itself as a sipping wine.

A blend of 70% Mourvedre and 30% Cinsault from 45 year old vines.

13.5% alcohol by volume.

90 points.

Faustine Vieilles Vignes Sciacarello Nielluccio 2020

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.
A lovely wine!
