What a great find! Received the 2000 vintage bottle via an exchange in the Bay Area & couldn’t be more thrilled. Usually a North snob, this Product of the Boudreaux region is simply a treat. Not too many in the states left where I shop, so I was able to savior this special number 🙏🌎 — 6 years ago

Chateau Latour is my favorite 1st Growth, they demand patience and inspire not just hedonistic pleasure but also analytical thought.
Both amazing but need massive amounts of air or another 15-20 years minimum in the cellar. I get the feeling they both will hit a plateau once they blossom and slowly move towards full maturity for decades.
The nose on the 2005 rose with little agitation and shot from the hip to nose with ease. By far the most youthful and I tense nose of the evening.
The 2000 was not dissimilar in its progression, if a bit more refined from the extra few years in the glass. A cerebral wine that was also deeply pleasurable, it kept bringing me to what this wine will be like in 15-20 or more years. Easily a 50 years wine from a macro view.

This was perfect with dinner at Olympia provisions. Such an awesome blend that drinks well on its own but is magical with food. Beaujolais meets Loire meets Portland. So good! — 7 years ago

Spiced apple and pear dominate the palate upfront with a hint of white peach. Leading into that irresistible minerallity you often get from Loire Valley whites. Lively acidity on the finish keeps you coming back for more!!!! — 10 years ago
As awesome as always — 11 years ago
still an excellent Mourvèdre. — 11 years ago
2020 spring / summer. Really nice - I hadn’t had any de Moor in a while but this was at least as good as I remembered. Honeyed and savory, lots of chalky minerals — 6 years ago
Love. This. Wine. — 7 years ago
Ripe white peach, pineapple, and other tropical fruit balanced by bright acidity and a vibrant mouthfeel - finishing crisp and clean — 8 years ago
If a wine can be honest (& a farmers wine to boot), this is it. Even threw off a bit of sediment for such a youngin'. Much much better the 2nd day. Doesnt have the acidic snap that some of my fave Bourgueils do, but Im rootin for it — 9 years ago
Fattened up with some air, what a treat. — 11 years ago
Champagne Brut Nature, Blanc de Noir, Pas Dosé, 12%. No added sulfites.
Disgorged in 2013.
Bottle tasted in January 2015.
Golden yellow color, with persistent perlage.
Ethereal and evanescent, with scents of berries such as blackberry and blueberry.
Very crispy in the mouth, with great acidity and astringency, yet well balanced and elegant. — 12 years ago

A bigger Grenache from Paso Robles, very earthy and would be great with a steak, burger or carne asada tacos — 2 years ago
