Bourgogne Blanc Chardonnay 2013

2 May 2018

A unique bottle opened by our host Alex Giesen in his Puligny chateau.

Photos of our new friends Lisa Giesen, my wife Debbie, the Palm tree shirted author of this post, Alex Giesen, my wine travel companions for this trip, Sandra & James.

A family only bottle made just for the Giesen's, not available in the market, so fresh and clean; barrel fermented as only a Kiwi transplant in France world choose to do. A nice pull from Alex's private cellar.

Ridge Block Single Vineyard Selection Pinot Noir 2013

Luscious and feminine on the nose. Satin waves of clean red fruit and subtle tea notes. Super nicely balanced and clean in the mouth. Tart and expressive with powerful fruit and nuanced oak. Bright and explosive finish with long fruit going on and on. The hint of bite let’s you know where it’s from. Not Burgundian but a truly beautiful expression of New Zealand Pinot — 6 years ago
