Les Vignes De P'tit Jean

Jean François Ganevat

Les Vignes de Mon Père Côtes du Jura Savagnin

Intensive kaleidoscope of sumo orange, olive oil cake and leaf pile. Motor oil viscosity but featherweight palate. Batard finish. Wow. — 13 days ago

Vieilles Vignes Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2016

From a magnum, shortly before my son’s wedding. Wonderful, but I felt that it would be even better in 5-6 years. — 2 months ago

Vieilles Vignes Brouilly Gamay 2022

Brouilly, to me, is the fruitiest of the crus, and this is fruit in spades. So tangy and fruity. A bit of barnyard funk on the nose adds complexity. Very zingy and fruity in the mouth. Downright tangy!

UPDATE: After a couple hours of air, this is getting funkier and funkier. Clearly a low- or no-sulfite wine. I Vacuvin-ed a bit to see whether it will even be drinkable on night 2. My guess is it won’t be. (Further update: it was still good but it became clear to me that the funkiness was I was getting on night one was actually brett, which was somehow easier for me to identify the next night.)

I visited Lapalu once when a few of us spent a day tagging along with Eric Texier to his favorite Beaujolais producers!!

Chassagne-Montrachet Mes Vieilles Vignes Pinot Noir 2020

Blackberry jam, cassis, soil, earthenware.

Balanced and earthy. A medley of berries. Earthy. Full of memories of other Pinot. Spearmint.

Some oak. Toasty. Maybe slight vanilla or tobacco.

This is nice, curious how it may open up
