Reviews

2004 Jean-Francois Merieau "Alliance des Generations" Touraine Rouge
Review Date: 3-2-2010
A truly fascinating wine, made from 20% MAlbec and 80% Cab Franc. It is resolutely old-style, being actually pressed by foot, fremented with wild yeast and punched down by hand. This shows a winegrower with respect for the history and tradition of their region. The result is a wonderful wine, full of life.

2007 Roccapia Chianti
Review Date: 3-2-2010
This is the style of Chianti I love, with nice minerality, a silky texture, and and nice lenght on the finish. For less than $10, this is a terrific value.

Bruno Michel "Blanche Brut" Champagne (375ml)
Review Date: 2-26-2010
Balanced and elegant style. If you are looking for a delightful champagne that is so perfectly balanced that a bottle disappears in an instant, look no further.

2008 Domaine Paul Pernot Bourgogne Blanc
Review Date: 2-26-2010
The bright and elegant entry is followed by characteristic Puligny minerality and a very nice creamy middle, and slightly citrus notes at the finish. Overall, this is a delight, easy to drink and lovely. Pernot's Bourgogne always contains a fair amount of declassified Puligny Montrachet, and it shows. This is delicious and so quintessentially white Burgundy that it is very easy to like!
Top Value!

Quartz Reef "Methode Traditionelle" Sparkling Wine Brut NV Central Otago (Elsewhere $29.99)
Review Date: 2-26-2010
This terrific Methode Champenoise sparkling wine from Central Otago is made from 62% Pinot Noir and the rest Chardonnay. It has fine bubbles and is as close to Champagne as you will find, for about hlf the price. I drink it at home!
