Cœur de Cuvée Rilly-la-Montagne 1er Cru Brut Champagne Blend 2006

Love this champagne. I think my last bottle of it

A lot of finesse and very smooth. Drinking from a red burgundy glass.

Has a nice consistent sweetness to it that is balanced by a citrus flavor such that it’s a pleasant sweetness and not sugary.

Delicious

Monier de La Sizeranne Hermitage Syrah 1990

Earthy, a little gamey, smoky, animal/bacon fat, fruit is not quite as youthful as an identical bottle from a friend’s cellar tried last month, long, lingering finish, outstanding Hermitage, should continue to develop for another 5+ years!! — 2 months ago

Domaine Tempier

Cuvée La Tourtine Bandol Mourvedre Blend 2022

Purplish in color with a reddish rim.

Nice nose and medium in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing raspberries, red cherries, currants, light wood, spices, coffee, dark chocolates, earth and tobacco.

Nice finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.

This Single Vineyard Mourvedre from Bandol is rich and fruit forward. Elegant and easy drinking.

Already delicious, although still very young, and needs a few more years in the bottle to mature properly. Will continue to age nicely in the next 20 years.

Nicely balanced and good by itself as a sipping wine. Will pair nicely with food too.

A blend of 85% Mourvèdre, with Grenache and Cinsault. Aged in French oak barrels for 18 months.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

$100.

Cuvée de Réserve Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Champagne Chardonnay

Crisp, citrusy and with great acidity and freshness. This is one of the best and finest blanc de blancs from an independent grower we know: Rodolphe Peters does truly great champagne. — 3 months ago

Cuvée Réservé Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 1990

Lovely, sweet mature fruit (dried redfruits), there might be a touch of Brett (but less than the 1995 Beaucastel I posted last week), suave and complex on the palate, lingering finish, excellent Chateauneuf-du-Pape at its peak!! — a month ago

@Dave, I got lucky and caught this at its peak, more cellaring would have been a mistake!

Domaine Pierre Usseglio & Fils

Cuvée De Mon Aïeul Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2000

Used the Durand on the cork - soaked to the edge. Decanted for 2 hours.

This wine had some gaminess. Smooth. Fruit was a bit wild and overpowered by the savory flavors.

Paired well with the chicken skewers and onions. Needed complex flavors in the food to pair well.

Good but quite a bit below the Beaucastel
