2001 Domaine de Beaurenard (Paul Coulon et Fils) Châteauneuf-du-Pape Boisrenard

Past its prime and drinking rather unwell. Quite awful actually, no fruit, no leather, no secondary or tertiary character. Not sure I'd even use it for cooking. Disappointing. Drink up and hopefully your bottle will show some semblance of the southern Rhone.

Previous note nails it on the head. Minimal fruit, all earth/leather with faint bretty character. Noticeable tannins somewhat surprising. Tasted a bit tired for my CDP wheel house.

2019 Ameztoi Getariako Txakolina Rubentis

Usually one of my favorite rosés every year. This one is downright funky but in an unpleasant way. The green vegetal notes are overwhelming reeking and tasting of bell pepper and jalapeño pepper. The nice crisp mouth feel is completely obscured by the green notes. Doesn’t improve with air or after coming up to room temp. Just not good for my palate on 2 separate nights. Rarely do I ever do this, but down the drain it went. Will look for the ‘20 version.
