9.1

Nose has metallic blackberry, white pepper, ripe plum, prune and baking spices.

Palate has tart plum, dried blackberry, white pepper on mashed black cherries and potting soil. Medium body, light minerality, medium finish. Nice wine, young, could really benefit from a few years of proper resting.

60% Pineau d’Aunis / 30% Pinot Noir / 10% Cabernet Franc

A solid pairing with local (Jacüterie/Hudson Valley, NY) British Bangers on the grill tonight, peppery wine with well spiced, fresh sausage, yum! — 5 years ago

9.2

Nose has white pepper, spruce needles, cedar shavings, fresh cherry and mashed black currant.

Palate has pepper dusted mashed cherry, tart blueberry, black cherry, (light) limestone dust and (light) new oak. Medium levels of acidity/tannin help this wine to be very soft and enjoyable.

100% Pineau d’Aunis from 125 year old vines; maceration in barrels and amphoras, then barrel aged for one year. — 5 years ago

Love it. Still a little co2 on day 2. A little funky and super light. 90 gamay from Loire 10 poulsard. Beguet is becoming a new fav producer. Chambers wins again. Reminds me of ganevats many Vdfs but less than half the price. — 6 years ago

Lovely. Pear and honey aromas, blossoms, good acid. A bit of petrol as well. Fascinating with Chinese food. — 8 years ago

I love me some Vice Versa. The only thing better than the wine might be the people! Samantha and Patrice are amazing people, and Maayan and team Atelier Melka need no introductions. I am so happy to watch them succeed. Having purchased an estate property last year, we can’t wait to visit them in the future. Ok, back to the wine. While “im”patiently awaiting my single vineyard designates to age I am enjoying two of their lines, Le Petit Vice and the Napa Valley blend. While I prefer the 15s and 16s to the 17, the Napa Valley blend never fails to impress. More tasting notes next time. — 5 years ago

Short Rib wine. 👍🏼
Winery notes,

Unique circumstances helped create the monumentally impressive 2013 Le Petit Vice. Proprietor Patrice Breton worked with Paul Hobbs and Mike Smith in the beginning, and finished the wine with the help of Philippe Melka, and Shawn Johnson… Four of Napa Valley’s most accomplished winemakers.

Aged for 22 months in Taransaud and Marques French oak barrels, — 5 years ago

Made a butternut squash/burrata/kale/sage/pumpkin seed/fig pizza last night and combined the leftover slice to a pie of Motorino’s I got from Saltwater’s (my coffeeshop) neighbor in the East Village. I’ve been going to Motorino’s since 2012 and it’s one of my favorite Neapolitan pies in the city.

Sharp as a sporty, citrus cologne of vetiver, pine, and sage. Lemon peel and grapefruit mist. Really love this unusually fresh and zippy bouquet.

It’s got the freshness of a Chablis and the citrus and melon notes of Sauvignon Blanc. Love the high tone acidity here — it just works. It doesn’t try to belabor itself with subtlety, just announcing straight up, this is who I am. Grapefruit, melon, lemon rind, sage, and even some of the juicy unctuous qualities that ripe blackberries can have.

Solid. — 5 years ago

9.1

Dominant green apple flavor, almost cidery, but there’s good depth of flavor, including melon and citrus. Also honeysuckle and a hint of spice, all supported by a nice backbone of mouth watering acidity. — 5 years ago

Severn Goodwin

9.1

70% Pineau d'Aunis / 20% Pinot Noir / 10% Cabernet Franc from the Coteaux du Vendômois AOC in the Loire Valley; 50-90 year old vines.

Color is dark purple, lightly translucent.

Nose has freshly ground white & black pepper, black cherry and red rose.

Palate has plum and blackberry, tremendous backbone of white pepper, earth with crunchy minerality, medium bodied and gentle but snappy tannins.

Call me caught off guard by this $16 Loire, smiles delivered! — 6 years ago
