The Hen

L'Aventure

Estate Cuvée Paso Robles Red Blend 2010

A huge wine. Lots of dark fruit and a hint of cassis on the nose. Still tannic and dark - lots of time left. Worked well with game meat and Cornish hen. — 5 years ago

Big Table Farm

Sunnyside Vineyard Pinot Noir 2015

2013. 11.5 ABV! The Hen. Talk about a light OR Pinot - this is the poster child! Tart, bright cherries, with a hint of strawberries and smoke. On the sweeter side, and even a tendency towards vinegar - still, loved it, and this style. Easy drinking. 9.1. — 8 years ago

Collio Bianco della Castellada 2009

Couldn't decide whether I like it. It's quite sweet when chilled but when warmer became quite cognacish. Smooth and very full bodied. Went beautifully with the Cornish hen — 8 years ago

Les Picasses Chinon Cabernet Franc 2014

Give this 2 hours minimum in a decanter - it’s shy at first but opens up to a really beautiful and varietally accurate cab franc expression. Ripe red and black cherry, freshly turned potting soil, green pepper, slightly horsey. My wife, who has a more sensitive palate, was turned off by the extent of barnyard here - I was more than happy to drink the bottle on my own. :)
Enjoyed tonight with a roasted Cornish game hen, prepared in the Zuni style, with sautéed brassicas and broiled polenta. Two more in the cellar - drinking great now but I’ll try to hold them for a couple years to see where things go.

Pur Breton Anjou Cabernet Franc 2017

Surprisingly one of the better wines I’ve had in a bit, at Hen of the Woods in Burlington, VT. Would not have guessed it was just 2 years old. The red and black fruit on the nose is great, and it expresses a lot of earthy / grassy notes on the palate. Perfect acidity on the finish, and excellent with a very good fatty ribeye. Very nice! — 6 years ago

Colares Chitas Reserva Velho Ramisco

Amazing wine/ drank 2006 reserve- this wine can age longer I believe. Overall a very unique wine with tons of character- the tamisco grape is unique to the coastal region of Portugal - one of the old heirloom vines- and because I like thin mineral reds this is my dream come true for sipping wine! If you have a chance of getting this wine- Buy it by the case and hold on to it - very unique and should be more recognized for the hen that it is. — 8 years ago

Domaine Roulot

Bourgogne Blanc Chardonnay 2011

Citrus, crushed shells, oily, chalky nose. Just the smell is worth the price of admission. Initially citrus, hen immediately almonds and oil, and a lingering shells and mineral finish. Love Roulot. — 9 years ago
