Clos Saint-Jean Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Pinot Noir

Avreally punchy nose packed with life. Quite reduced with marzipan/almonds and citrus. On the palate similarly charged- full throttle citrus with minerals. Really intense and showy — 8 years ago

Moury Saint-Bris Sauvignon Blanc

Awesome sauv blanc from a producer in Burgundy close to the Chablis border. This vineyard site has limestone soils that you can taste in this dry mineral driven wine. Bright acidity and lean body make it a great food wine and something that will be easy to enjoy all summer long. — 9 years ago

La Porte Saint Jean La Perlée Anjou-Saumur Chenin Blanc 2017

Substantially above a tasting that included more prestigious appellations and more expensive bottles, all in the same region and all in chenin blanc. Best VfM of a very enjoyable tasting. Nice balance and yet a subtle acidity leaving much to hope for latter years. Drink some, keep some. — 5 years ago

Pretty funky upon opening. Horsey like a Raffault. But there is a sense of big cherry fruit lurking. Very floral as well. Some combo there of fresh flowers and horseshit. After 30-45 minutes the shit is gone and it’s all violets, earth and cherries. Awesome. Morel is magic. Palate is deep, raw like only Morel can be, with terrific freshness and acidity and a lovely rusticity. St Aubin Rouge are not the most elegant Burgundies but they have so much more than elegance. This wine is long. Really long. It’s a crazy wine that I think with 3-4 more years will really show well. This is like a young version of the 08. — 8 years ago

Saint-Bris Sauvignon 2014

This was easily one of the best Sauvignon Blancs I've had in a while. Darker color than most, a bit more body. Softer citrus, mellow grassy notes and minerals but without that zingy bone dry finish of limestone. Finishes with some weight and length. Delicious! — 9 years ago

l'Empreinte du Terroir Corps de Garde Saint-Bris Sauvignon

Yes, Sauvignon Blanc in Burgundy! In fact, the St Bris appellation was previously called 'Sauvignon de Saint-Bris' (before 2003). And you can ONLY use SB or Sauv Gris fruit, + max 12.8% ABV. Love the terroir and plan to show it blind just to mess with my Sancerre obsessed friends. — 10 years ago
