Dense and bright ruby, almost purple color. Nose of red fruits, spices, flowers, earth, it’s complex and have a great minerality. On the palate the wine have depth but is not heavy, it’s round but have a good acidity, it’s bright but not thin. The flavors are tight and the earthy and flowery side of the wine is there and the finish shows the spices and minerality again. This is a pretty good gamay based wine. Very good+ (90)

Daniel Bouland Chiroubles Chatenay 2015

Quite dark purple color showing the warm vintage. Very aromatic with fruity, floral and earthy notes. Dense on the palate with a texture close to the one of biting into berries that leads to a spicy explosion. Good from now and for many years more as this wine has the depth to last and what it takes to be enjoyed today. Drank that bottle over a week just to see it evolve and it stayed stale all that time. Very good+ (90)

Made of Gamay from vines planted on very sloped hills (40% angle of inclination) Aged in tanks and large oak barrels for 6 to 9 months. Alcohol level of 13,5%

Pearl Morissette Chardonnay Cuvée Dix-Neuvième Twenty Mile Bench VQA 2012

Bright gold color. Nose of fresh fruits with pineapple, citrus fruit and earthy clay mineral notes. Round on the palate with a good acidity level that goes pretty well with its candied lemon and fresh pineapple flavors. Long spicy finish. Got really better with air, more complex, so I suggest some cellaring time. Excellent (91)
