Le Pigeoulet Red Rhone Blend 2018

A lot going on the nose. Red fruit, black fruit, meat, leather. Would be a good wintertime wine. Too bad they’re sold out at Kermit Lynch. Devin gave it 💯 — 5 years ago

Clos des Mouches Beaune 1er Cru Chardonnay 2013

Lyle Fass
9.5

After 6 years this is starting to really strut its stuff and live up the exalted status of this great 1er Cru. Nose of lemon zest, lemon curd, mineral, kiss of oak, a little muted for now as a bit cold but palate is unreal. Huge density and richness with terrific acidity and freshness. Massively mineral finish with serious structure and concentration. Finish is compact and comes across as massive yet closed. Very pure and just superb quality. Very complex finish and really all the way through.Stunning showing. Great terroir. Wish i would have waited longer and i rarely say that. — 6 years ago

Clos de l'Ermitage Saint Claude Vieilles Vignes Saint-Véran Chardonnay 2016

Another star in Rosenthal book but I’m a bit puzzled by the muted enthusiasm on Delectable. Sure, not the last word on complexity but what glory in classic chard & Macon notes. Rich & minerally mouthfeel, balanced. Yeah, for less than 15$ local. So what’s the problem? — 6 years ago

Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Beaune Chardonnay Pinot Beurot

Wow. Very crisp, tight acid. Some wild liqueur aromas up front (frangelico??) but they ease of after a few minutes. Settling in to a gorgeous but unusually bright and slightly astringent glass of wine. — 8 years ago

Le Pigeoulet en Provence Grenache Blend 2013

Old reliable. Always one of my favorite Rhones. Heavyish-medium body, heavy fruit, medium tannin, great food complement, mouthy. Even drinks well alone & is friendly enough not to overpower cheese or light hors d'oeuvre. — 10 years ago

Vignobles François Ravel Côtes de Provence Rosé Blend

Color is a peachy blush, like Cover Girl from the 90s. Very slight orange tint. I’m drinking this a day old, so fragrance isn’t so pungent: smells like outdoor seating at a white tablecloth restaurant with white flowers, with an elegant woman sitting two seats behind you wearing Crepe de Chine or Amal Goutal— something classic. Also has an undercurrent of Lemonheads (chemical citrus) smell as well. Taste is surprising, not acidic but still dry/not sweet— caramel-like, with peachy strawberry taste and a short finish. Kind of has the taste of a merlot inhabiting a rose. It’s really nice. I often don’t like rose because it’s too sweet or too dry or always somehow tastes too similar... but this one was special. Perhaps one of my faves of the summer. — 7 years ago

Perfect with oily or dry fush or heavy seafood. Great taste, slightly fruity (what compensates the fish taste). — 9 years ago
