  • NV Pierre Sparr Crémant d'Alsace Pinot Noir Brut Rosé 87 Points

    Pale ruby tinged. Vague fruit on the nose. Coarse bubbles. Lightly sweet. Maybe 6g dosage. Bitter nectarine skins. Light just ripe peach fruit. Kinda nice.

  • 2019 Stephane Aviron Chénas 85 Points

    France, Burgundy, Beaujolais, Chénas

    Medium ruby. Kinda deep for beaujolais.
    Very faint carbonic confected cherry. Mostly dark cherry. Good fruit on the palate. A little heavy. Medium plus acid. 13.5% alcohol. Maybe 14. Really hefty. 87. Not my favorite. Would blind as burgundy. Actually, an entry level Sonoma coast Pinot. It’s hot.

  • 2023 Andrias Gvino Mtsvane 91 Points

    Georgia, Kakheti, Khashmi

    Dark orange-muddy red. Interesting nose. Plastic? Reminding me of India - books in India?. Reticent. Menthol? Meat? Full bodied. Excellent acidity. Mouthwatering. Medium tannins. Love the chewy texture. Savory. Long finish. Quite good and hard to describe. Lots of flavor and texture on the palate.
