Domaine de la Janasse

Vieilles Vignes Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2006

Insane nose, smelled of underripe fruits (not in an unpleasant way) and rhubarb and strawberry.. Good amounts of color. Had lots of life left (tons of acidity and fruit) and was probably opened five years early. Thought this wine had the most forward looking promise of them all tonight. — 8 years ago

Barbaresco Nebbiolo 2010

Cherry and tar with strong tannins and minerality. It's a little early to open this one yet, but had this with a veal chop that really helped the wine show the potential and promise. — 8 years ago

A favourite producer for me after visiting the winery last year. Their individual vineyard Barbarescos like Rabaja are excellent.

Domaine Lafage

Miraflors Rosé Blend 2014

A near perfect rosé at a great price. I prefer this soft fruit tempered by a light floral note all properly and proportionately positioned against a mineral intensive rocky bottom as swift waters twist and turn their way downstream leaving one's palate clean and refreshed but laced with the memory of the moment😎🌀 - buy the magnum at my favorite local Morehead City, NC hang - Promise Land Market (thx sweet Janeen and Daniel for spinning some crazy sweet tunage!)! Find this place in all its realness, and drink this wine! — 9 years ago

Domaine Drouhin

Dundee Hills Pinot Noir 2012

Tonight I am going with another Pinot Noir. I feel I am getting into a Pinot rut so this I promise will be it for a little while, but what can I say, I love me some Pinot. Well the nose comes on with good notes of black cherry, cranberry, allspice, clove, earthiness and floral notes of lilac. On the palate the black cherry comes through with notes of pomegranate, good tannins with green vegital notes, oak which all blends together very well in a full mouth feel. — 10 years ago

Together with 2010, this infant shows great promise for the future, thanks to its sincere structure and polished fruit flavors. Usually, not my favourite producer but here they hit the jackpot. — 9 years ago

Château Mouton Rothschild

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 2006

Matté
9.4

This really does have some polish on the nose, dark and broody with good intensity of dark fruit akin to a chocolate fruit gateaux. Unfurls slowly with time in the glass showing sweet liquorice, intense violet very fresh but still closed. Shows great promise. Very full.
Palate seems quite foresquare, sucked in on the mid palate lots of everything, tight and the quality really only showing at the moment on the length which has beautiful, intense blackcurrant and mint leaf, a very rich style mouton.
