What a difference a non vintage can make, not sure what year the fruit was from, but it had that 'aged' flavor. — 10 years ago

The second cuve of this vintage from P Paillard I've had. The first spent 7 yrs on lees before disgorgement, was dry, biscuity and creamy-textured. This one was disgorged after 10 yrs on lees - saline/seashells/lees, dry, mouthwatering, lingering. Wow, incredible difference and yet another reason to love Champagne. — 11 years ago

Petaluma white Label Chardonnay-
While I am enjoying this it bugs me to think how much better it could be. A bit of new oak for a start and although the full malo doesn't seem to be adding much the acid is persistent yet soft. The oak would have made a huge difference across the board. The fruit quality is there!
It's not my style of chardy but it deserves 8.5. -Tasted again 31/01/15
Tasting a lot more oak influence and complexity this time including some buttery notes. Oak is perfect :)

Bouquet des Garrigues Côtes du Rhône Red Rhone Blend 2012

9.1

A blend of Grenache, Syrah, Carignan and Mourvèdre, aged in tank, barrel and large foudre.

Caillou’s Côtes du Rhône vineyards are essentially the same, in terroir and exposition, as its Châteauneuf vineyards.

Dense, rich red fruit with a well-balanced structure that leaves a pretty lovely, long finish. Old vine Carignan seems to be making all the difference in the world. — 11 years ago
