Le Fusil De Chasse

Château Gressier Grand Poujeaux

Moulis en Médoc Red Bordeaux Blend 2010

Wednesday night's middle of the week wine is the 2010 Château Gressier Grand Poujeaux. This wine is a blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon and 50% Merlot and made in conjuction with Château Chasse-Spleen.

The nose reveals juicy dark fruit, black cherry, black raspberry, black plum, black currant, licorice, violet floral notes, chocolate and an earthiness.

The palate leads us to the same juicy dark fruits of black cherry, blackberry, black plum, black currant, herbal notes, licorice, violet florals, toasty oak and good earthy notes.

We have a full bodied medium + acidity, medium + gripping tannins that moves right into a long finish with lingering cherry notes straight through. Enjoy the down hill side of your week and continued safe travels. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷

Chasse Temps Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend

Delicious Chateauneuf du Pape; still fruity and aromatic despite the bottle age. Characteristically complex, well blended, and pleasurable in every way. Drank very nicely with Thanksgiving dinner. — 9 years ago

Chambolle-Musigny Pinot Noir 2012

A very nice Chambolle-Musigny. Just a perfect color in the glass. After a swirl the aromas reveal themselves. Quite restrained, with dried flowers and a touch of red fruit on the nose. Silky smooth mouthfeel with well balanced fruit and earth, and a long finish with good acid. Tannins are there but smooth. Delicious with mains at Club Chasse et la Peche in Montreal. — 8 years ago

Castelletto Barolo Nebbiolo 2005

Lavender. Crushed flowers. Spices. Pierre a fusil. A very elegant and mineral Barolo with all the bells and whistles, ready to drink but will reward cellaring with more secondary and tertiary notes. Made for food !! — 8 years ago

Reserve Extra Brut Champagne Blend

Really a very nice champagne. Soft but persistent bubbles. Complex nose with lots of yeast and nuts. Great mouthfeel, with lots of lemon. Finished long with good acid and hazelnuts. Delicious by the glass selection at Chasse et la Peche in Montreal. — 8 years ago

Happy New Year!

Maybe the Michel Arnould old vines powerhouse is too serious for a lighthearted celebration, but it was just right for father and son wine geeks having New Years dinner alone together for the first time since 1999.

85 Barros colheita port
92 Bruno Michel Champagne
94 Charbonniere Chateauneuf old vines
90 Cos d'Estournel
00 Domaine de Chevalier
96 Drouhin Corton Charlemagne
04 Eitelsbacher Karthauserhofberg auslese long gold cap
73 La Rioja Alta Arana
00 Lafon Volnay Santanots
82 Mount Eden Pinot Noir

And 5 honorable mentions just too damn delicious to leave out:
93 Beaulieu Napa Cab
88 Chasse-Spleen
10 Fontodi Chianti Classico
n/v Lustau Peurto de Santa Maria En Rama Sherry
12 Ridge Zinfandel Jimsomare
