2010 Domaine de la Jaufrette GigondasRed Rhone Blend more |
1/9/2024 - ccrida Likes this wine: 92 pointsReally bright clean red fruit, absolutely delicious, with a bit of spice. Firm tannins, could have aged longer easily but I love the fruit now I have not regrets. Had their 2012 cote du rhone the other day and it was more rustic and savory then this one. |

1/8/2024 - ccrida Likes this wine: 91 pointsSoft nuanced and lots of depth. Great mouthfeel too, luscious and creamy yet light and dry like strawberry cream. |

12/3/2023 - ccrida wrote: 90 pointsRustic but still has some bright candied red fruit notes. Better after some air in the pm, after opening the bottle in the am, using some for caccitore and recorking til dinner. |

7/17/2023 - ccrida Likes this wine: 91 pointsStewed red fruits with just a hint of brightness, softened by age made for a nice painting with a rib eye steak, with the acidity cutting through without being sharp. Drink now. |

2015 Westwood Pinot Noir Wendling VineyardAnderson Valley more |
3/2/2023 - ccrida Likes this wine: 90 pointsThis was tasty pinot, nice balance and good fruit, depth, but I didn't remember it being so expensive, and found it more to be the midweek wine it was on consumption rather than the special occasion wine it seems to be in price, for me. |

2006 Kent Rasmussen Pinot Noir Carnerosmore |
3/2/2023 - ccrida Likes this wine: 89 pointsMuch better than when I last had it over a decade ago, the fruit came to the fore, nice raspberry, maybe a little on the thin side but more well rounded and little to none of the bell pepper. Dry and not the longest finish but very nice surprise. |

2/26/2023 - ccrida wrote: 88 pointsA little tight and sour at first. Soft tannins and light bodied. Raspberry came out more over a few hours, it never gained much depth but was a pleasant sipper. |

2013 Domaine Jean-Louis Tribouley Côtes Catalanes OrchisGrenache Blend, Grenache more |
11/19/2020 - ccrida Does not like this wine: 83 pointsagree with the other notes on this being huge, rough/rustic, a little brett, super dry tannins, blackberry rather then the red berry flavors I associate (and prefer) with grenache. Not sure this will be better to my taste with time but will hopefully soften some, as it's tough to enjoy on its on as is... |

6/24/2019 - ccrida wrote: 84 pointsThis one was lost in the cellar and was over-the-hill, will a very muted, rustic flavor, only hints of red berries. I guess $10 bottles of granache are not intended to be cellared! |

5/7/2019 - ccrida wrote: 88 pointsMeh. Tasted of type, just not much of any of the flavors, fruit, game, herbs. Maybe to old, but still had some structure, just no oomph. |

1/10/2019 - ccrida Likes this wine: 90 pointsThis was really nice for my palate, pure brambly and lithe fruit with no bell pepper. Great food wine, and while not the longest finish it's far from vapid. Will buy again for sure. Anyone with a bias towards rustic old world casusally delicious wines will dig this. |

2013 Qupé Syrah Santa Barbara Countymore |
11/12/2018 - ccrida Likes this wine: 87 pointsThis was an enjoyable weekday wine, before/during/after a roast. Served around 55F, through a vinturi, it has nice clean dark black and blue berry fruit with a liveliness from the lighter ("cool climate", SS too?), went well with food. Not much finish though, other than a bit of ethanol heat. |

2009 Château Camplazens Syrah Vin de Pays d'Ocmore |
6/14/2018 - ccrida Does not like this wine: 82 pointsThis wine is well past it's prime (it says a much on the label, and was buried in my cellar). Day one was sweet and syrupy grape soda. Day the fruit had faded, and while surprisingly there was a little earthiness and game, it was thin and short. |

5/20/2018 - ccrida Likes this wine: NRAroma is nice black cherry and mushroom, palate the same but lighter, and some but not much smoke until the finish, which is still not too strong. Overall still pretty solid but thinning and not worth holding. |
