Terres & Mer

Mer Soleil

Reserve Monterey County - Santa Lucia Highlands Chardonnay 2018

Taking its name from the sea and sun – the two forces of nature that shape its character. Pale lemon, aromas of Stone and tropical fruits, with floral and sweet spice notes. On the palate flavors of apple, peach & apricot with lemon zest and toasty vanilla notes. Smooth long finish, well balanced, nice acidity, ending with fruit, vanilla oak and mineral character. Sip’s well now. Pair this with some pan seared white fish. — 8 months ago

Val de Mer Chablis Chardonnay 2021

Smells and starts great. But, this just does not have the depth and body I was hoping for, and so the overall impression is slightly thin and perhaps even a bit green. Not bad per se but just not quite what I look for in good Chablis. — 10 months ago

Les Terres Blanches Meursault Chardonnay 2007

No premix here…rich, full but balanced and has a long road ahead. Virtually no signs of age. Feel like it needs another 10. — 7 years ago

Terres Brulées Cornas Syrah 2017

Purchased at Binnys September 2023. Might be better to save a bottle from 2017, but it was still very delicious. I’m trying more wines from France’s Rhône Valley in anticipation of visiting there in 2024.
Cost: $60

Charme Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs Crémant de Bourgogne Chardonnay 2017

I love this every year. Always expressive and structured. 2017 has apples and pears and brioche. Bonus points for sweet cinnamon and baked apples with lasting power. — 2 years ago
