Could drink this forever. Crazy value, and crazy good. Rustic almost feral style while staying elegant. — 7 years ago

This bears little resemblance to a Gamay from Beaujolais, starting with the startlingly saturated violet color. The nose is feral, with inky dark berries, laced with venison jerky, poured on to a slab of just-cracked granite. In the mouth, massive dry extract and intensity, but simultaneously vibrant. It’s got soft tannin and acids to spare, so it will age, but really special now. This is actually a fall-weight Bojo. The only thing about this wine that runs according to type is the blocky ‘15 tactile feel, which is not my fave. — 7 years ago

Gorgeous nose. Granite infused dark berry goodness. Stunningly deep and precise aromas. Pungent, stanky, exciting. Feral. Palate is impossibly juicy and pure. Unreal intensity berry intensity. So complex and so fresh and so pure. Granite slides all over your palate. Unreal wine. So clean. Amazing structure and finesse. One of the best wines in Cornas. Amazingly elegant for such a big boy. — 8 years ago

Just insane. Raspberry fruit cake, spice, florals, meats, savory, lavender, gamey, blackberry, perfumed, hint of a feral edge, omg, so concentrated and sweet. Terrific ripe tannins. Such purity. Deep. What texture. — 6 years ago

This reliably delicious Sauvignon Blanc from Washington’s cool Ancient Lakes area is brilliant in 2018, offering penetrating aromas and flavors of lime blossom, grapefruit, lemongrass, anise and beeswax. It’s also remarkably supple for a bone-dry wine with bracing acidity. $22.00 (Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, September 2019) — 6 years ago

Feral, deep and generous, this was a wonderful, richly earthen and savory wine decorated with black fruits, meat, olive and brine. Young but open. — 7 years ago

Lovely Cornas. Very similar in quality to the 2000 Clape flagship bottling. Feral blue fruits, bramble and herbs. — 7 years ago

Mineral and wild Loire gamay (with a little persan). You're not going to confuse this with cru Beaujolais as it's learner and more driven and feral. With a light chill and some cured pork products - perfect. — 7 years ago

Small batch no. 16, “The Raven”. One of their first I’ve had of theirs that has a [mild] acetic profile. As my dad said, “kinda smells like those chips we used to eat.. salt & vinegar!” Super tasty and the quality of the feral fruit shows. Cool, deep fruit comes through on nose. Finish sticks to your gums rather than tongue... tannins. — 8 years ago

Darker more complex nose than the Vergelesses. So good. Big ripe mid season cherry, so much sinewy earthy diet, spice and it smells more structured and concentrated. So complex. Just a symphony of Pernand. Complex and structured and more obviously young than the Les Vergelesses. So sappy and pure with a dark and bright cherry fruit profile at the same time. Long, sinewy, feral, spicey and complex. Amazing purity, depth, structure and concentration. So deep. This will age gorgeously for the next 10-15 years. — 6 years ago

Olive, spice, dark berry fruit, lavender, floral, meaty, savory, feral element, what a sick nose, soft yet substantial, these big but delicate tannins, long sappy fruit, loads of mineral, so elegant, so mineral, sweet, salty and mineral. — 6 years ago

Day 2 notes as day 1 it was an end of the night open and it needed 24 hours to really show. Nose is all black fruits, tiny bit of horse, granite, meat, earth, herbs, licorice. Feral. Dense gamey olives as well. Complex aromas. Palate has insane freshness and purity. So clean and straight as an arrow with great acids blackberry fruit and complex stoniness on the finish. Compact, long and balanced. Way more upside here. — 8 years ago

Tactile and structure - coconut, salt, lemon oil, grapefruit peel even with some more feral, earthy tones. Super tight, condensed at the moment, but beaming with promise — 8 years ago

And for the night portion of the evening, Professor Jamet with horror show in a bottle. A dark, bloody, brooding presence that can scare the shit out of a guy if he's not ready for it. Feral elegance. Fantastic. QPR beast. — 8 years ago
