2018 Domaine de la Vougeraie Beaune La Montée Rouge
5/2/2024 - Erik Snel Likes this wine: 91 Points
Textbook Beaune Burgundy. We needed a wine while watching the movie Sideways. This seems to be right, while Pinot Noir was one the main character in the movie. The movie was disappointing, but the wine wasn’t. Everything you expect from a good PN was there. Red fruit, a fine delicate acidity, some leather and some horse-stable aroma’s.

2018 Domaine Pierre Usseglio & Fils Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc
4/9/2024 - Erik Snel Likes this wine: 99 Points
At holiday end 4,5 years ago, I bought this bottle at Pierre Ussiglio’s winery during a hit and run visit (still 1150 km’s to go). It was not easy to get through the Chateaneuf village because the folks were celebrating the ‘Veraison’. But I was happy to get some bottles, including these whites, knowing that these are not easy to get. It seems be now at it’s peak. Not complex, but fresh fruity, flowers, almonds and a lot of drinking pleasure.

2018 Dr. Heger Vorderer Winklerberg Weissburgunder Großes Gewächs
3/13/2024 - Erik Snel Likes this wine: 92 Points
Dr. Heger’s glanzparade! I Bought this weissburgunder4 yrs ago at the producer in Kaiserstuhl. Last weekend during an early asparagus dinner, I opened it to see if it would meet my expectations, based on a little sip at the producer’s tasting room. Simply drinking, it already impressed, with a humble yet well-structured performance. But in combination with the asparagus it reached another level, it hit us with soft white fruit, lemon and tangerine beyond expectations! 🛠️13,5%Alc 🍇Weissburgunder 🛒Producer, 28€"
