8/7/2014 - G-BEAR Likes this wine: 90 pointsEnjoyed over two nights. The nose is light but pleasing. Some structure but almost too easy to drink. Paired very nicely with putanessco sauce over pasta and sweet potatoes. I plan to drink my last few bottles soon. |

2010 Domaine de l'Ecu Muscadet de Sèvre-et-Maine GraniteMelon de Bourgogne more |
4/14/2014 - G-BEAR Likes this wine: 91 pointsSo we really like raw oysters from Washington State and this Muscadet has the acid and minerality to make them sing in your mouth. Also great with fruit or cheese plate. |

2010 Domaine de la Guicharde Côtes du Rhône Villages Massif d'Uchaux Cuvée GenestRed Rhone Blend more |
1/16/2014 - G-BEAR wrote: NROpened for an hour. Plums, spice, and a bit of alcohol on the nose. Tastes of dark fruit, bramble, spice, chewy tannins. Enjoyed nicely with a pork roast and roasted veggies. A Southern Rhone great value. |

2011 Teutonic Wine Company Riesling Crow Valley VineyardWillamette Valley more |
11/2/2013 - G-BEAR Likes this wine: 88 pointsThis does have a Mosel like quality but not near as good as the 2010. I am looking for 2012 to be more worthwhile. |

2009 Domaine de la Guicharde Côtes du Rhône Villages Massif d'Uchaux Cuvée GenestRed Rhone Blend more |
11/2/2013 - G-BEAR Likes this wine: 88 pointsFor a Southern Rhone at this price point I believe this is the best. Chewy tannins with well balanced plum and berry fruit. Great PQR. This is our house wine for roasted chicken. |

2008 Domaine Pierre Guillemot Savigny-lès-Beaune Dessus Les Gollardes BlancPinot Blanc Blend, Pinot Blanc more |
11/1/2013 - G-BEAR Likes this wine: 90 pointsMost Burgundy aficionados would detect that there is something different about this white Burgundy, but would never hazard a guess that there was Pinot Blanc in it. This is a wine of intense gout de terroir, the mineral expression so evident as to almost make the beautiful fruit seem like an afterthought. |
Rosé |
2012 Domaine du Gros 'Noré Bandol RoséMourvèdre Blend, Mourvèdre more |
10/2/2013 - G-BEAR Likes this wine: 91 pointsOutstanding Rose'. More expensive than I normally pay for rose' and worth every penny. Great freshness and balance in the acid. And the fruit is heavenly. |

1982 Château du Cayrou CahorsMalbec Blend, Malbec more |
8/28/2013 - G-BEAR wrote: 90 pointsA wonderful 30 year old wine experience and a good example of a well made Cahors. Smooth, well rounded, medium mouth feel and finish. Some are saying the wine may have pasted its peak but I found my bottle to be spot on. |
