Banyuls on SnoothFebruary 2013
The wine is richly colored with deep garnet hues, and the nose is a pleasant combination of ripe berries, and something of a "twang" to it, perhaps some tart fruit to counterbalance the jammy sweetness that is also present. The taste is very fruit forward, with lovely notes of blackberry, ripe plum and vanilla that is just offset with a bit of ... Read More

This 2010 blend of Grenache, Syrah and Mourvedre from Languedoc-Roussillon, France is good. Ruby color with a mid to tight rim variation. Fruit notes of blackberries, and black cherries with a hint of spice and vanilla. It has a long finish on the palette with low acidity. This wine has not peaked and will mature nicely over time (2018-2020). Be... Read More

The window is well and truly shut on the 1986 Banyuls. I had previously tried the 1980 and it was still faint signs of life. Alas, I fear it is time that the 1986 be buried into the ground. Intense mahogany colour. An expired drink stripped of any fruit and with only streaks of alcohol left which was probably at its peak a decade ago. I wont tip... Read More

This was brought by a guest for Thanksgiving - I wasn't a big fan. Very light body, lots of acidity and not much else. It wasn't able to stand up to the various flavors and rich textures of the Thanksgiving meal. Read More

(grenache, syrah) The head of this is complex -- tobacco, fig, pepper and floral. It combines to make an intoxicating aroma. The body is full and fruity and sweet, but not overdone. It's very well balance. The finish is chocolately/velvety. SUGGEST: Quickes cheddar has a surprising velvety, creamy reaction that you don't want to miss out on. Read More

Dessert wines are my favorite... of course dessert is my favorite meal course anyway. Yes, it is NOT P.C. but I just do not care.I am older now and I want to have what I like. Health "dictators", be gone!! Just because dessert is my favorite, does NOT mean I actually OVER EAT desserts. LOL!!
