숙성된 치즈 향. 하지만 약하고 화사함 없이 단조롭다. 오히려 입에 머금었을 때의 향이 더 좋은듯. 향보다 맛이 좋다. 편안하고 음식과 잘 어울릴듯 — 9 years ago

Celebrating my father in law as he finished his battle with pancreatic cancer. Sometimes there is the right wine at the right place with the right people. Even let the almost adult children on the action. Great celebration. This wine was feminine and full of black/ blue fruit. Thank you Lou for your passion You exceeded expectations and delivered.

A total wine pick up. Vacqueyras is a French AOC in the southern Rhône region, established in 1990. Often receiving the unfortunate moniker of "a poor man's Châteauneuf-du-Pape", the wines are typically GSMs and can age nicely if produced correctly. This one is 70% Grenache, 20% Syrah, 10% Mourvèdre, (the AOC requires a minimum of 50% Grenache in the wine). While you can drink the wines young, they truly begin to shine after 3-4 years. This wine seems to be peaking now. ~$17 | #totalwine #vacqueyras #GSM
On the eyes: Dull deep brick brown, slightly cloudy, peaking to slightly orange at the rim. Med stain, med tears, no gas/floc.
On the nose: Black cherry, mulberry, vinous, nice oak character, hint of petrol and pepper.
On the tongue: med+ acid, med tannin, med alcohol, med body, a bit chewy in the mouth. Bright red cherry, stewed blackberry, a hint of mulling spices, touch of oak and tar. Nice finish. — 8 years ago

Another great QPR burg. — 9 years ago
A real traditional heavyweight syrah, perfumed with lavender and green olive, plum pudding and cracked pepper. Mouthfilling and bold, very perfumed and streamlined on the palate. Good mid-palate concentration, and high acid despite 15% alc. comes across as both elegant and burly, plenty of length in the finish but not without tongue-numbing heat. Still, gorgeous. — 9 years ago

For canned Rosé, easily the best I’ve ever had. (To be fair, that wasn’t a very high bar) — 4 years ago
