Wow this is great! Soft sweet tannins, wonderful fruit, and the acid to make it go great with food. The QPR is outstanding.

Enjoyed 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.

Light to medium. Less, just less than I expected from a ripasso. For $22 I have enjoyed valpolicella that brought more to the table.

So 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.

We have worked through five bottles over the last year and this last one was finally a real pleaser. Nice balance, medium to long on the pallet. A truly delicious Barbaresco.

Opened 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.

Lip smacking with lots of fruit and a good finish. Not a lot of structure but very enjoyable Syrah with a bit of cab that rounds it out.

ROSEANDTHORNES got it right except I was a bit more swept off my feet. Beautiful nose with white stone fruit and floral qualities. Very nice steely finish.

This does have a Mosel like quality but not near as good as the 2010. I am looking for 2012 to be more worthwhile.

For 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.

Pinot Blanc Blend, Pinot Blanc more

11/1/2013 - G-BEAR Likes this wine: 90 points

Most 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.

A 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.
