Worthy Of Tradition

Domaine de Font-Sane

Tradition Gigondas Grenache Blend 2011

Consistently solid Gigondas year in and year out. In my mind, one of the best out there for the money. Raspberry cordial, fig, roasted cashew, chamomile tea. — 11 years ago

I really like this too. I have a small stash of the 07, which is brilliant!

Château Fortia

Tradition Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2010

It's got just about as much Brett as I will tolerate, which is not much. But, it's got gobs of fruit and spice. Don't see long term potential but it's quite enjoyable now. — 12 years ago

The Brett blows off pretty readily and actually this is quite a juicy CDP

This was better the second day- the Brett blew off.

Guiborat

à Cramant Tradition Champagne Blend

Valentines day sparkler - really nice cremant. Dry mineral backbone with a bit of yeast, stonefruit and jasmine - very floral. Great with triple cream and toast. — 12 years ago

Château Saint-Pierre

Cuvée Tradition Côtes de Provence Rosé Blend

Now that's nice! An exceptional spot on Provençal rose at a decent price. Flowers and a bit of spice on the nose, almost a bit raisiny with good earth on the palate. A touch of black pepper zing to finish off. Refreshing. — 11 years ago

Bio Tradition Morgon Gamay 2011

Biovitis. I've hated the 11s so far. Stewy and alcoholic. And I've tried a few of the good producers. Guignier managed to kill it somehow. Great wine. Nice nose with elegant internal aromatics and nice fruit. Bravo — 13 years ago

Tradition Franken Spätburgunder 2006

This is my cup of tea. High, yet not harsh acid. Long finish. Transparency is the key quality here. The wine screams of terroir. — 12 years ago
