2021 Moulin de la Gardette "Tradition" Gigondas
Review Date: 01-22-2025
This wine is stunning! Beautiful aromas of exotic Turkish coffee being brewed, Ripe Figs and loose leaf Darjeeling tea!
The taste will make you pause so you can truly comprehend all that you're experiencing!
Dark ruby plums and rich savory Kalamata olives, There are both Umami and dark fruit characteristic notes on the palate.
Enjoy this eloquent wine with braised lamb and saffron Basmati rice.
2016 Moulin de la Gardette "Tradition" Gigondas
Review Date: 01-22-2025
I can talk about how impressed, intrigued and satisfied I am with this baby Chateauneuf du Pape. Pleasant aromas of freshly watered lawn, white pepper followed by an amazingly powerful but balanced flavors of black Currant, Turkish coffee, Kalamata olives, and savory spices. This vintage is outstanding, and this is truly a special wine. Drink some now and hold on to a few bottles or a few cases for that later super special occasion in life.
Berlucchi "61" Franciacorta Extra Brut
Review Date: 11-03-2024
Ah! the freshness and joy trapped in the bottle.
This wine makes me want to drink every night!
On the nose, there are pleasant brioche and toast.
There’s also hints of citrus fruit, dried figs, white flowers and nutty aromas.
You can pair it with many dishes such as Salads, Fish, any charcuterie platter or
just let it be your pajama wine on a lazy night!
2022 Comte Louis de Clermont-Tonnerre (Corcia) "Cuvée Patricia" Ventoux
Review Date: 11-03-2024
Not a hidden fact at K&L how much I LOVE this wine.
It is mostly Grenache grape and a touch of Syrah.
Dark and inky, full body, ripe blackberries, baking spices, abundant mouthwatering fruits, juicy and inviting.
I have not gotten bored with this voluptuous red even though I have been drinking it for the past few years.
And the price!! unbelievable.
I pair this wine with steak! Yes, I have that much faith it it.
Price:
$14.99
2019 Château Gigognan "Clos du Roi" Châteauneuf-du-Pape
Review Date: 10-10-2024
What a charming wine!
Captivating aromas of petrichor, pepper and ripe blackberries.
Candied cherries, baking spices and the right amount of earth.
Just a perfect cozy red for the winter that may never come!!
2023 Domaine Tabordet Pouilly-Fumé
Review Date: 10-09-2024
If you are an individual who is not fond of Sauvignon blanc because you tried a pungent New Zealand once, it's time to give this varietal another chance. I promise it'll be worth it.
Aromas of white flowers and citrus followed by a streak of green fruit like lime and green apples.
lively minerality, clean and dry but gentle on the palate.
What a fantastic treat this wine is!
2010 Haut-Bergey, Pessac-Léognan
Review Date: 10-09-2024
I am stunned. This wine took my breath away and I was in love at the cork pop.
Hello gorgeous you with dark opulent blackberries, voluptuous tannins and unforgettable personality.
It has the power and the body of 2010 that you expect but is so elegantly harmonious. Harmony in fruit, body, balance and the finish.
Go ahead, try it and be in love!
2021 Boissy & Delaygue "Lou Pontias" Côtes-du-Rhône
Review Date: 01-12-2024
What a gem!
Aromas of pomegranate and ripe blackberry.
Opulent dark fruit from start to finish. Kalamata olives, dusty dark cocoa, mid palate and a touch of spice.
The finish shows notes of bay leaf and sage, giving this super affordable wine a surprising complexity.
Do not miss out on this fun, delicious wine.
Pierre Mineral Brut Champagne
Review Date: 02-04-2020
The grapes are all from the Gonet family's estate.
This beautiful lively Champagne is a harmony of flavors.
Bright, slightly toasty, delicate, light, elegant with just the perfect amount of acidity.
It is memorable and once you try it, you will not forget these beautiful bubbles, especially with the incredible low price.

$37.99
