And now the white. Actually a lot of the same profiles as the orange but without the tannic grip stuff, kinda not what I want from a white and on the edge of VA but still intriguing if kept cold. — 3 years ago

Rich floral summer bouquet on a hot sunny day, tart mealy apples, pears, honeysuckle palate with a lightly prickly finish that has a touch of leathery earth. Really elegant and pretty wine ☀️ — 4 years ago

vintage 2016 | Odd experience. With 10 y I thought this to be a perfect wine for my Sunday dinner. When my wife and I tasted it we were making funny faces to each other. Verdict: undrinkable. We put it back in the bottle and I took it to a blind tasting with friends. They appreciated the wine. With 72+ hours air the wine came to life. Nice cab franc characteristics. — 4 months ago

Interesting blend. The ‘17 still had a touch too much acidity in ‘23, but I can see it’ll knit nicely as it goes on. Individual wine from a personal vision, meant for the long run. — 3 years ago

A very nice BdB made in an oxidative style - ripe yellow & red apples, bruised apples, subtle shortbread & brioche, a hint of fresh hazelnuts. Rich, evolved, so nice.
Very fine mousse on the palate, persistent bubbles, beautifully balanced with just a touch of residual sugar adding a nice creaminess on the palate.
This is truly a nice sipping bubbly. — 4 years ago

Delicious Musar Rose from a young vintage. Complex flavors that really opened up with the decanting recommended by Yannick Benjamin. Great combination with the spice and textures of the Peruvian food at Contento. — 5 years ago

Tør, næsten streng vin med masser af rå solbær i næse og mund. Trods garvesyre og rank krop et meget drikkevenligt glas vin. — 5 years ago

Vintage 2022 | Côte Roanaisse is the Loire area that is closest to Beaujolais and this cuvée ‘Les Ardaillons’ is made of the gamay saint romain grape. It’s just as delicious as it is without pretentions. Vintner Yannick Pras makes the type of wine a Paris bistro owner will offer to you with great pride. Glou glou. | Paired with ratatouille and a crottin from goat. — a year ago

Been waiting to try this producer for ages, didn’t disappoint; electric tropical fruit and florals on the nose, ripe guava, then tastes zingy and even with great grip and distant bitterness at the end, so good to see someone getting this style just right without any crazy notes putting the whole thing off course. — 3 years ago

Quite nice - pretty “down the middle” for chablis, but in a good way. — 4 years ago

Juicy, fresh, and delicious with just enough of that peppery note to keep a sense of place. As usual a great rec from Yannick — 5 years ago

Vintage 2010 / dark colour, deep and complex smell with a lot of spices, raspberry, which I love from the first day I sipped a Bourgueil. Velvety taste. / Paired with Dutch Cheese with clove, a specialty from Friesland. — 6 years ago
