Salon des importation privées Montréal 2017. Great discovery. Will definitely rebuy. — 8 years ago
This is a medium bodied white blend, with solid round tannic structure and a splash of residual sugar. Salient flavors are apricot, lemon and grapefruit with a little acidic bite at the finish. It is a good wine for Mexican food pairing. — 8 years ago
Kicking back letting the local tunes adjust my attitude with wine:30 showing on the clock she strolls in my direction digging the slow roll Hendrix spinning left then twisting right dressed in deep purple clinging and flowing interestingly crimson along her rim and edges back to casually claret whispering that she's from a small chateau hanging on the right bank of the Gironde near Arveyres. Offering her hand, I accept pulling her in close then a slow spin and a slower twirl she comes close bathed in the essence of blackberry and spice, young but ripe, wet earthy slowly working her way to a first kiss dripping then gripping, pulling tightly then going soft and silky still clinging while working her way deeper. I close my eyes, Hendrix stops and she's gone. A distant guitar string bends an unknown player. I spot her by the bar, her colors waving in the breeze of a lazy fan I reach out take her firmly by the neck, then lower bending her gently back then spinning her my way, she again engages, her essence lingering in my memory, we dance on as the tunes continue their spin. Later, when we are both done I figure she's likely a fine Merlot brightened by Cab Franc having found her way through new French oak nestled by the river, intelligently nuanced well worth the dance and cost is not an issue...
Hanging at Promise' Land Market where the tunes are always righteous, the people are cool, the conversation is groovy and wines dance from the walls... — 8 years ago

Lemon essence, thyme and stone-filled grassy meadows greet the nose. That bright lemon vibe remains on the palate followed by salty minerality on the lengthy finish. It's almost as if the wine was made from a parcel carved out of Sancerre and then placed high in the Alps. — 8 years ago
2015. So smooth and mild and drinkable — 6 years ago
Carignan singing in the glass. Harmonious acids. Tannins whispering secrets. — 8 years ago
Dry yet smooth. Not going to replace Whispering Angel as my favorite rose, but would be a close second. — 8 years ago

Like Elton John whispering 'Tiny Dancer' into your ear. An intriguing and spontaneous willingness to go there. — 9 years ago

A welcome familiar face from my bar in NYC that luckily Tim’s Wine in Orlando, Florida carries.
Mineral, mountainside zephyrs, glens of dewy grass, peach in the nose.
Welcome fine, subtle carbonation. Supple grass like a day spent on the great lawn in Central Park in better times.
Peaches and the citrus of a mandarin orange. Love the sweet, creamy mouthfeel.
An ode to beautiful rolling meadows. — 5 years ago
