  After reading the reviews I used this to braise some pork belly. After sampling the wine, I think it was a smart choice.

  Savory, earthy (muddy? - Thick mouth feel) wine with notes of pear and apple. Not loved by all but we still managed to finish the bottle. I agree with the earlier comments that it felt heavy and plodding - absolutely.

  Like others, I wasn’t feeling this — it felt a little heavy and plodding on the palate. Beeswax, some neutral melon, a little bit of white flower. It’s sort of neutral in general doesn’t bring any briskness.

  Vague floral, beeswax notes, but so flabby and insipid with a bitter finish, it's barely drinkable. Consistently bad for all three bottles ordered from Garagiste.

  Surprisingly poor. Smells good but the bizarre taste makes it undrinkable. The first ever bottle of wine that I had to flush down the toilet. "Rhône blanc", mon œil !
