2019 Domaine Rémi Jobard Volnay 1er Cru Santenots
4/12/2024 - JonBarnes1 Likes this wine:
Tried on recommendation. A delicate nose with some salinity and mineral on it…clay makes sense. On the palate it’s effortlessly light, silky and creamy in texture. Has the Volnay perfume - orange blossoms, kirsch. Wish I could appreciate and describe the aromas more but just getting over a head cold.

2022 Birichino Mourvèdre Old Vines Enz Vineyard
4/2/2024 - JonBarnes1 Likes this wine:
Based on other reviews, I expected bright and fresh, which it is, but still unmistakably mourvedre. Dark, earthy and mineral laden - limestone particularly evident - but held upright on the palate with staunch acidity and candied fruit, even bubblegum, sprinkled from nose to finish. Like a gamay crossed with a mourvedre. 12.5%. Unique expression, tactful, nicely executed.

2017 François Gaunoux Pommard 1er Cru Les Rugiens
3/29/2024 - JonBarnes1 Likes this wine:
Dark ruby color. Savory, gamey entry with a saline streak midpalate. Herbaceous notes throughout. Finishes with concentrated dark cherries and baked earth, and lingering bitterness. Thumbs up.
