2016 has been a challenging year for Hermitage, as hail in April caused a severe reduction in volume. The quality of the final product, however, benefitted from perfect temperatures in Autumn. Silene is a selection from Jean Louis Chave, who cultivated this land since XV century. The granite soil of Crozes is fully reflected in the wine, showing raspberry notes on a mineral vein. Time will allow to grow up some more interesting tertiary flavors, for now limited to tobacco and a hint of licorice. The taste, however, is already balanced, with soft and ready tannins balancing a strong minerality core. I'd suggest to leave it there for 2-3 years at least, to check whether the potential it showed on the nose can fully develop. — 8 years ago

De Venoge has one of my favorite and solid line ups from their N.V. up through their Louis XV line. This particular chardonnay based Cordon Bleu is unique and beautiful. Brut but not on the more bone dry side. On the nose is the lovely smell of unpasteurized honey with beeswax, spread on a freshly baked English muffin, with some lemon undertone, mousse, and fig preserves. Definitely one that even people who say they don't prefer brut champagne do enjoy! If I could drink a true champagne day to day in this price range, this would be one of a select few I would choose! — 11 years ago

A new label for Torre del Veguer is more of a reflection of just how fun and tasty this wine is. A unique blend of two types of Xarel•lo makes this a great wine with dinner or one for sitting on the beach watching the Mediterranean. love it! — 11 years ago

This is actually Une Annee LeSeul XV American Watermelon Wild Ale. Supremely tart and lightly funky with watermelon coming through on the nose and up front. Most refreshing on a warm afternoon, although perhaps not the best pairing for the rich nuttiness of a Bolivar Royal Coronas cigar. It's good to be home. — 9 years ago
