Michel Picard Volnay 2010, Ac
Burgundy, France$34.25
Two trusted reviewers (Lawrason and Szabo) separated by 5 points on this one...
Well, I found this Pinot Noir very elegant, with seductive fruit, and a medium body that belies the varietal. I enjoyed everything about it. This time, I agree with the upper end of the assessment.
Domaine Baud Blanc De Blanc Brut, Crémant Du Jura
Jura, France$36.30
Delicious, creamy, bubbly Chardonnay!
Domaine De La Côte De L'ange Châteauneuf Du Pape 2010, Ac
Rhône, France$37.95
I could say some overused cliche about the rewards that come to those that wait... But, suffice it to say that if you have kept one of these in your cellar, it is ready! Recommend decanting as there was a bit of sediment. Very succulent CdP.
Enjoyed August 2018.
Château Rahoul 2010, Ac Graves
Bordeaux, France$29.95
2010 was a great year... almost any wine is a safe bet. This one sure is!
Alvaro Palacios Les Terrasses 2013, Doca Priorat
Priorat, Spain$39.75
Turns out that the third Friday of September is International Day of Grenache, so, to celebrate I chose to open this bottle given that this wonderful and versatile grape is prevalent in Priorat. Although this was a blend (with Carignan most likely) it proved to be a great choice.
Lavau Vacqueyras 2012, Ac
Rhône, France$25.95
A GSM that delivers nice depth and balance for under $25
Matetic Corralillo Syrah 2011, San Antonio Valley
San Antonio Valley, Chile$23.95
Outstanding Syrah. Suggest decanting. Enjoy!
