Feels a bit fat at first but there's a lot going on here and the acid eventually shows up. With the right food paring this is a-ok. — 10 years ago

Since the 2007 vintage, this has been my informal "house red" (informal, because it's not going to be a perfect paring with everything). The 2012 (I have one bottle left) is concentrated, black fruit and minerality, and wonderfully aromatic. This is organically-farmed tannat, cabernet franc, merlot, and Monsieur Bozzi has a few rows of syrah planted as well. The small winery receives its barrels (one-used) from Vega Sicilia in Spain through the consulting oenologist, Stéphane Beuret. — 10 years ago
Really nice vouvray. Off-dry. Fantastic paring for seafood. — 10 years ago
I see this wine paring well with cinnamon, even oysters, has a sour acidic finish. Clean ocean smell — 12 years ago

Great paring with lamb stew. You know It's good when you go for the decanter to pour yourself another glass and it's empty! — 10 years ago
