Domaine de Verquiere

Plan De Dieu Red Rhone Blend 2016

Fresh and fruity with tame tannins. A really nice CdRV to drink young. Stephanie (la beauté au caveau) described it as “gourmandise” which she translated as “greedy”. But what I think she meant was that it is easy drinking and you gulp it right down. That’s is the case with very inviting unpretentious red. — 7 years ago

Michel & Stéphane Ogier (d'Ampuis)

Le Temps est Venu Côtes du Rhône Grenache 2014

Had another bottle. Stéphane Ogier is one of Côte Rôtie’s most well-respected stars & looks for concentration in the vineyards and freshness in the cellars. "Le Temps est Venu, ‘the time has come’ for an adventure farther south, with old-vine Grenache and limestone slopes. A blend of 60% Grenache and 40% Syrah that comes from the Plan de Dieu and Visan AOCs. Red fruit aromas and pepper spice notes. Sweet raspberry and cherry flavor adding herbs to the mix. Medium length ending with earthy notes. Nice value! — 7 years ago

Lots of aromas going on here. Cedar, spices and cherry. This was a bit thin to me. It never opened up even after decanting. Very tight. Wish it was the 11 or the much better 09. I hope it will age and open up. Should not have wasted opening this bottle so soon. Lesson learned. I will revisit but in due time. — 8 years ago

Ferraton Père & Fils

Plan de Dieu Côtes du Rhône Villages Red Rhone Blend 2017

Dark fruit with spicy velvety undertones of violets and herbs. Rich finish. Filet mignon really went well with it. Surprise Cotes-Du-Rhone that is a cut above other CDRs. — 4 years ago

Tenuta di Gracciano della Seta

Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Sangiovese 2015

Really nice ride! All that perfumed purpleness in the attack and the spicy, sustained finish...complex and rewarding at 25$. 2 bottles remain. Note, the wine softened significantly on day 2, so plan for a one meal consumption. — 6 years ago

815 California Cabernet Sauvignon 2016

I haven’t tagged a wine in a long time. My friend went to Napa Valley and brought this back to me. It was so smooth it was addictive. It’s a fantastic wine with a good friend who shared it with me. Plan to buy soon for myself. — 7 years ago

La Font Des Garrigues

Côtes du Rhône Villages Plan de Dieu 2012

Little and peppy; light body, dark, good tannic bite, fruity, berries but def Rhone red-- has qualities of their vacqueras just light and fruitier and a bit too sweet — 8 years ago

Domaine de l'Espigouette (Bernard Latour)

Plan de Dieu Red Rhone Blend 2016

Great structure and fruit, but the tannins were a bit chewy. Maybe let this one sit for a couple of years. — 6 years ago
