Les Bambins Saint Amour Gamay 2020

Lovely, classy Beaujolais village level gamay, 2020 vintage enjoying early in 2024.

Goes well with cheese and crackers and staying indoors on cold winter nights.

J.L. Chave Sélection Hermitage Blanche Marsanne Roussanne 2017

2017 enjoyed 10/7/2023. nose: caramelized pineapple, wavering between oxidative and candied. wiffs of fresh floral pass quickly, stony/mineral undertone. palate: medium body, oily viscosity, high acid and mineral leave my tongue tingling. gorgeous. glad that I opened. — 7 months ago

La Chave Saint-Joseph Red Rhone Blend 2018

Was worried by initial natty aromas but they blew off to reveal a beautiful Syrah. Dark berries, granite, fine tannins. Not overly polished. Delicious with braised short rib and ricotta gnudi. — 8 months ago

Les Grands Ponts

Rubis clair
Nez réduit et fruit rouge frais après 12 h s améliore
Bouche fraîche acide cœur de bouche assez compacte mais fiable sur la rose et les fruit rouge énorme longueur
Un vin sans sulfite à 10 degrés d alcool un tour de force pour 2013
Avec un peu plus de chaire cela serait un 95

Hermitage White Rhone Blend 2020

Tightly wound nose, lots of beeswax, white florals and some stone fruit, rounded by oak. Palate in unfortunately alcohol-first (I guessed 14.5 but it’s 15!) but layers of texture. Good bit hot, more pedigree than magic — 5 months ago

Hermitage Syrah 2015

Good body and acidity, Laura’s favourite of the evening.

Go to the black pig, bring your kids, share plates and drink good wine by the glass (or bottle).

Clos Florentin Saint-Joseph Syrah 2016

Needs time. Complex, intense, and densely packed... this isn’t showing everything it’s got yet. Some herbaceous notes and a more mineral as opposed to juicy quality. Hold — 5 years ago

Ermitage Cuvée Cathelin Hermitage Syrah 1991

The nose on this is spectacular. Deep and meaty, with intense gamey fruit. A rounded delicious intensity. This is a spectacular wine. So full of life. Soulful and profound. The quality of fruit is amazing. Wow. — 5 months ago
