Such a pleasant flavour! Went well with BBQ'd pork ribs. With only a subtle hint of grassy taste, I would rank it as a second pick after Pinot Grigio. — 9 years ago
2012 is a great vintage. Should be able to age well, but great to enjoy right now. Slightly drier than the Couer de Vallee. — 10 years ago
Joyful, forward, and embracing. Notes of apple, pear, green grapes, with the warm finish of honey and lingering lemon. In the winter months, this is perfect at the tail end of a Slavic-themed meal. Salted fish, preserved tomatoes, potatoes, pickled cabbage, beet salad, and a luscious chocolate cake to finish. Versatile, and perfect for year round enjoyment. — 10 years ago
Vin de table fin, frais et corsé 13,5 degrés. Excellent rapport qualité/prix (moins de 5€ chez le producteur). Pure Grenache. A consommer pour un repas sans prétention a base de viande. — 11 years ago
Tangerine and acid for days. Very enjoyable — 11 years ago

Delicious Nebbiolo from the Vallee d'aoste. — 11 years ago
Just a little something something to prep my palate before the Festivities began! Solid Chardonnay but I expected more.
On the fun side!: Blind tasting three wines tonight with friends: 2013 Beau Vigne Estate, 2014 Becklyn Reserve & 2013 Morlet Coeur de Vallee. Can't wait to dig in to those 3 bad boys!!! — 8 years ago
10 years on lees. Rich and creamy style of champagne with stewed nectarine and lemon curd. Super fine bubbles, a very intense pleasure to drink, the kind you never want to end. 2001 vintage is a 70% Pinot Meunier and 30% Chardonnay. Vallee de la Marne. Exquisite. — 9 years ago
This 09 Aubaine is extremely fresh with great acid. Score is based on potential for this brawny but balanced beauty. Should be even better in a few years. — 9 years ago

Muito bom, tem um adocicado grande parecendo um vinho de sobremesa mas não sustenta uma sobremesa — 11 years ago
Very impressive, really good; extremely well-made. — 11 years ago
Tribute night...to Jackie who is France with the boys for Decouvertes en Vallee du Rhone — 12 years ago
Laser beam to my Chardonnay pleasure center. Such focused orchard fruit, flint and sappiness , with a hint of salinity. Reductive (surprise!) upon opening, much more giving with a couple hours in the decanter. Every time I question the QPR of white Burgundy, Roulot reels me back in. Thanks, @Evan Vallee. I need a winning lotto ticket or something... — 9 years ago
Great, but a baby. Accessible now, but only hinting at the complexities to come - not going to kick it off the table, but its best years are still to come. Beautiful Volnay fruit. Thanks @Evan Vallee ! — 9 years ago
Great wine. Grapes are grown in a pure region with clean water from melted snow on the tops of Mount Blanc. Very little pollution in the region makes the outcome very good. — 10 years ago
Extreme indeed! An extremely bone dry sparkler. Vallee d'Aoste, 2011 — 10 years ago
The left bank. 100% Ponot Meunier. Lots of fruit. — 11 years ago
Juicy, light, woody — 11 years ago
Best cider I've had in a while (ever??!) Crisp, mouth watering, and dangerously gulpable. Pure joy from the vallee d'aosta. — 11 years ago
Delicious, minerally futs de chene from Yannick Poras Haute Vallee de l'Orbe — 12 years ago

@Mike R @David L @Joe Lucca @Ron R @Paul T The WOTN was a beauty so generously given to me by my Bud Paul Treadway! Thanks Paul!!! The tasting notes between the Beau Vigne Estate and Morlet's Coeur de Vallee are eerily similar. The true differentiation between the 2 is Morlet's seem less integration at this time. My buddy Kirk @Kirk Alexander always says "The test of a great wine is when nothing jumps out at you". This particular bottle did just that. Every person this evening commented on the fact that it was such a superbly balanced wine. It was dialed back ever so slightly in all the right spots for it to dance on your palate effortlessly.
Thank you Paul for a stellar bottle!!
It was enjoyed by friends outdoors on this beautiful S FL cool night. What else could one ask for?
