Christian Drouin (Domaine Coeur de Lion)

Calvados 1968

Near perfection....smooth butterscotch, carmel, cream with just enough complex apple and cinnamon spice on the nose. Medium body with a finish that lasts for minutes. My wife’s birth year and it’s nearly as impressive as she is. Worth every single penny!!! — 7 years ago

Domaine de la Ville Rouge

Inspiration Crozes-Hermitage Syrah 2015

Crozes-Hermitage gets no respect, but this domaine is bringing some serious wine to table. Inky and intense color. Smoke, game, olives and a burst of violets on the nose. Purity and focus on the entry, revealing succulent, juicy blackberry on the mid palate. Tannins are silky smooth but provide plenty of structure, reminding me of chewing on a soft, ripe blackberry. There’s a tensile quality about this wine- dense on the palate but with plenty of movement. Loving the balance and contrast going on here. Approachable, full of youthful fruit, a little playful and an excellent food wine. Drink now or enjoy for another 5 or so years. — 7 years ago

Domaine Familial L. Dupont

Calvados du Pays d'Auge 1997

1997 vintage. Medium Amber hue. Medium intensity of apples, Perry pears, honey, vanilla. Apple sauce, wood resin, cinnamon, toffee apple. With water added, more wood and vanilla notes to the fore. Very aged. On the palate, off dry, smooth integrated alcohol. Full bodied, pronounced flavour intensity of apples, pears, honey and toffee apple. Long finish, highly complex spirit. — 10 years ago

Pegasos Toscana Rosso Sangiovese 2005

2005
Not so clear in terms of composition, blind tasting says it is not typical Sangiovese.
Example of organic wine before it became a mainstream. Very good balance of berries and seems like it was aging in oak 3 years. “I make Sangiovese, the rest are making coke” popular saying of the wine maker 😊

Réserve de Semainville Pays d'Auge 25 year Calvados Apple Brandy

Insane Calvados from the best in Normandy coming from a blend of 25-30 year old brandy. Toffee, baked apple, almond, citrus fruit, tropical fruit that has you wanting more. Such a complex spirit. — 8 years ago

Domaine de Roche Ville

La Jouvencelle Saumur Blanc Sec Chenin Blanc 2012

White flowers and touch of honey on the nose. Opens with fruit, apricot, citrus. You can taste the oak from the barrel aging but it's balanced and in the background. A clean finish with a touch of alcohol that seems the only kink in an otherwise beautiful Chenin Blanc. — 9 years ago
