Collin Bourisset Douce Folie Saint Amour 2011 Bottle
Collin Bourisset Douce Folie Saint Amour 2011
Beaujolais, France
$16.75

Light-to-medium-bodied & fruity wine that was quite tart at the start but opened up nicely after 30-60 minutes. All in all, a solid value in the Beaujolais universe. Tasted November 2013.

Authentic Chianti Classico and better. Going Riserva truly makes a difference. Decant 30 to 60 minutes for optimal enjoyment but not much more than that. Tasted May 2014.

Chåteau Moncontour Demi Sec Vouvray 2011, Ac Bottle
Chåteau Moncontour Demi Sec Vouvray 2011, Ac
Loire, France
$17.95

I agree with the critic reviews that this wine is quite earthy and honeyed / creamy. However, I found its greenness a bit distracting from the overall impression. Tasted May 2014.
