Outlier

Domaine Romaneaux-Destezet (Hervé Souhaut)

Les Cessieux Saint-Joseph Syrah 2014

Love the acid and style of this wine. Didn't quite stand up against the richer wines in this flight, but again it's is own animal. Lots of carbonic character. Day two it lost that primary effervescence and showed much more weight on the palate. Definitely the outlier in the group. Would like to see this with at least 5 years of age. — 10 years ago

Montagny Chardonnay 2002

Wow, incredibly youthful with acids and focus. A brilliant outlier in a Corton tasting. — 11 years ago

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

An initial California 2012 look - no rhyme/reason...a little Cab, Prop. Red, Pinot and possibly an outlier or two. The rest are tagged the same. This one ranked #2. — 11 years ago

Tercero

The Outlier Santa Barbara County Gewürztraminer 2014

Just juicy and fruity enough to nail what the Gewürztraminer grape does best but hit us with a nice degree of acidity that went great with the fried chicken we ate that night. Oh yeah! — 10 years ago

Domaine François Raveneau

Valmur Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay 2001

Paul Costigan
9.1

2001: Not the expected Valmur richness from the start. Surprisingly tart, like biting into a granny smith apple. Lively, yet puzzling with each sip. Where was the lemon lime zip, giving way to a lemon custard vanilla tart? Not this bottle. Continued to develop slowly, yet the edge never fully mellowed. An outlier, that I now want to try again. — 11 years ago
