Volatile. A decanter shake removes some of the astringency, but I’m not sold, esp at these prices. — 5 months ago

Terrific rich and deep nose of savory minerals and an elite airiness. Also a hint if that classic Pommier richness. Pure and fresh. Palate is deep, rich, savory and incisive. Mouth-filling and deep. Awesome structure and finesse. So well made. Flavors of lemon, lemon pith and some savory elements. Has years to go. Truly great. — 5 years ago

Coteaux Cornas Syrah 2016

Blackcurrant and leather notes. Very savoury on the palate - a little disappointing to be honest. See previous Delectable note. I haven’t had a lot of experience with Cornas and was looking forward to this because of its stellar reputation. I have a reasonable collection of Clape Cornas in my cellar which are not ready to drink yet. To be honest this was a bit underwhelming compared to many stellar Shiraz we are lucky enough to have in Australia. Hopefully the Clape, the Rostaing and the Jamet with time in my cellar will be impressive. — 6 months ago

I love Cornas but generally am not a huge fan of this house.

Domaine Dujac

Morey St. Denis Blanc Chardonnay 2017

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of a couple hours. The 2017 M-S-D Blanc pours a straw color with medium viscosity. On the nose, the wine is developing with fascinating notes of champagne cake, Comice pear, lemon zest, almond, and limestone earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long; laden with limestone minerals and grippy. Almost as if it is tannic! This is such a distinctive wine. I’m in love. Drink now through 2032. — 8 months ago

Hermitage Syrah 2014

Was hoping for so much after the St Jospeh VV ‘04, but Meh....not good p/q. Nice northern rhone dark fruit savoury nose. Decent weight, balance and structure, but no better than a decent St Joseph or even a very good CduR. Passsss at this price point. — 5 years ago

Les Pierres Plates Reuilly Sauvignon Blanc 2018

A bit more heft than the last bottle of this. Grassy, citrusy typical Sauvignon Blanc. Typical meant as a strong compliment. The wine never tried to be something it isn’t. Great acid/fruit balance. Perfect with weeknight pasta & veggies. — 5 years ago
