Needs time. Complex, intense, and densely packed... this isn’t showing everything it’s got yet. Some herbaceous notes and a more mineral as opposed to juicy quality. Hold — 5 years ago

Fleurie Gamay 2016

About Beaujolais and Burgundy, The Wine Bible says “Even the spirit of each place is Singular. Beaujolais is fruit and joy; Burgundy is earth and solemnity.” #FunReadingTheWineBible. Floral, fruit and hints of spice on the nose. Fresh fruit taste; acidity a bit overpowering, but balances out with soft read fruits (strawberry?) — 6 years ago

Cuvée Vieilles Vignes Terroir "Champagne" Fleurie Gamay 2015

Popped and poured into a decanter 30 minutes prior. Served double-blind. In the glass, the wine appears a deep garnet with some light staining and what appears to be some slight sediment. Medium+ viscosity. One the nose, a fascinating mix of spiced apple sauce, Fig Newtons, cherries, bruised strawberry, red plum, pink peppercorn, rosemary, baking spices, and pool raft (yes, that’s what you read)…and maaaaybe just a touch of the mouse which could be a clue as to where this might be from. On the palate, the wine is dry, medium tannin, medium++ acid, and alcohol medium+. This wine is complex with a long finish. Frankly, this is incredibly quaffable and ever so pretty! While I think could last longer, the low addition of sulfur has me thinking it’s best to drink these in the next few years. After all, they are delicious right now. — 9 months ago

Cuvée Vielles Vignes Brouilly Gamay 2009

2009. Some rich cherry liqueur from the vintage, some interesting cut grass notes in the palate along with big time fruit. Nose gives up a lot of leather--goes in different directions like Bordeaux or aged Portuguese reds with Touriga Nacional. Quite nice! — 8 years ago

Date night with my wife, out in DC. This was delicious. Just the right combo of stony, gravelly and mulberry, fleshy. Dry and bracing on the palate. Better with as slightly log cooked rabbit ragu than with lamb merguez. — 9 years ago
