5/20/2013 - Brandon T. Likes this wine: NRThis one needs air. Bottle very tight, structured 1st night. Dramatically better on day two. Clear light straw color, med body, lime, lemon cream, white pepper, gently floral, long mineral-driven finish. Very good. |

2004 Château GreysacMédoc Red Bordeaux Blend more |
4/2/2012 - Brandon T. wrote: 91 pointsDrinking very well right now. Improved over two nights and after saved in a 375. Showing some complexity and aged notes with plenty of leather and ripe but balanced fruit. A nice budget Bordeaux. I liked this much more than expected, especially given the middling scores below. Wish I had bought a case at the ~$10 closeout price. |

11/1/2012 - Brandon T. wrote: NRVery pretty, elegant. Strong minerality. Tight with some tannin. Less tannin and missing the earth/mushroom notes compared to the Tardive. Too young to score. Revisit in a year or two. |

2010 Jean Foillard Morgon Côte du PyGamay more |
6/19/2012 - Brandon T. wrote: NREarth, mineral, red fruit and spice on the nose and palate. Elegantly structured, medium body. Can't believe this is gamay. I would have bet money this was pinot noir if tasted blind. Priced on the high side for beaujolais, but cheaply if you cover the label and pretend it's burgundy. |

2010 Mommessin Pinot Noir Bourgogne Oak Agedmore |
7/6/2012 - Brandon T. wrote: 87 pointsPop & pour and night 2: Floral aromas, pleasantly-tangy, tart but ripe red fruit, adequate finish. Not especially complex, but this is a very nice wine for the $14 price tag. Tasty and balanced with enough restraint and acidity for a wine geek's midweek dinner, but still fruity enough to serve it to your non-wine geek friends. |

2009 Domaine Vrignaud Chablis Les ChampréauxChardonnay more |
12/10/2012 - Brandon T. Likes this wine: NRSlightly buttery, oaky nose misleads...rich, but crisp, balanced, saline, ample acidity with a lingering finish. Excellent for sub $25. |

4/16/2012 - Brandon T. wrote: 86 pointsThis chablis didn't really taste like chablis to me. Too ripe and flabby, reminded me of California. Not a bad wine, but a little out of balance in the ripe 2009 vintage. |

2009 Louis Jadot Santenay Clos de MaltePinot Noir more |
2/18/2012 - Brandon T. wrote: 89 pointsNice red fruit, good balance, tasty. Didn't need a ton of air. Medium acidity and mild tannins make it easy to drink now. It lost something the second night even though stored in the fridge immediately after opening, which gives me pause about it's ability to age well. |
