April 2, 2024 - Retail $25? Very Heavy Bottle (766g; 1lb 11oz). 100% Chenin Blanc. I picked these up from Last Bubbles, another site from Last Bottle Wines, my favorite online retailer. Yellow, close to golden in the glass with plenty of lemon and a touch of honey blossom. The palate is bright and concise with modest fruit and an ample amount of verve. Perfectly fine. 88.

May 23, 2023 - Retail $25? 100% Chenin Blanc. I picked these up from Last Bubbles, another site from Last Bottle Wines, my favorite online retailer. Vouvray in general and sparkling Chenin in particular has a warm spot in my heart as I have led more cycling trips through the Loire Valley than any other region. After a sweaty ride, it is tough to beat a hot shower and a cold Vouvray. Sweet, honeyed Asian pear on the nose with a bit of minerality (limestone), the palate is dry, with balanced fruit and tartness. Not a wine for intense introspection, but one to share and enjoy. 88 Points.

January 29, 2023 - Retail $25? 100% Chenin Blanc. I picked these up from Last Bubbles, another site from Last Bottle Wines, my favorite online retailer. I bought these to have a less-expensive sparkling wine option in the house and it sure fits that bill. Nice tart apple, a chalky mineral note, and a splash of salinity. Not a world-beater, but a nice Vouvray that fills a hole in my cellar.
