potpest Posted May 20, 2024 Posted May 20, 2024 Never really been a lighter red wine fan, had this '17 Foillard Morgon Cote Du Py on Saturday, lit up a Hemingway Masterpiece half way through the bottle. Amazing wine; Going to go deep down the Beaujolais rabbit hole now. 3

Amazing wine; Going to go deep down the Beaujolais rabbit hole now. That's a good producer and appellation. Good Morgon goes about 10 years old before it declines. Clos de la Roilette wines are worth picking up. Incredible buy considering the pedigree. One of France's still value wines.

Would you say Beaujolais is better young or with a few years down, just usually 10 max?Just ordered a couple of Brouilly to try that got good scores:2018 Brouilly La Croix des Rameaux, Jean-Claude Lapalu2019 La Chapelle, Chateau Thivin Cote de Brouilly Cuvee

Château Thivin is a good producer. Domaine Lapierre is another great name to look for. 1

BigGuns Posted June 7, 2024 Posted June 7, 2024 Started with Don Fulano Fuerte (a rare 100 proof tequila) and then disappointingly switched to La Gritona reposado, which was a let down. 2
Popular Post BrightonCorgi Posted June 10, 2024 Popular Post Posted June 10, 2024 Went over my cousin's house for a long Sunday lunch. We had a hat trick of stunning wines. Hadn't had a Burgundy this good in a while! Real treat. I decanted the '70 Grahams the night before so it would be hitting on all cylinders the at lunch. The Cab was picture perfect and in a great place. First time with this Burgundy for me. He has a couple of them left. 6

He has a couple of them left. always a wonderful port. never seen the Cab but Remoissnet always had a rep as decent. no idea where in clos V they are situated but it does make a difference. glad the 88 showed well. always liked that vintage though it got dumped on by a lot of people. 1
Boss Hog Posted June 19, 2024 Posted June 19, 2024 Now this is some seriously good juice. Three bottles will certainly not cut it. Going much deeper on this one. 3
Popular Post Nevrknow Posted June 26, 2024 Popular Post Posted June 26, 2024 Very smooth, medium bodied. Thrilled I got this from an auction a friend clued me into. Thank you brother! I’m loving this bottle! 7

Boss Hog Posted July 1, 2024 Posted July 1, 2024 Such a wonderful dram. Price point is definitely hard to beat. 4
Popular Post Fireball Posted July 10, 2024 Popular Post Posted July 10, 2024 Just waiting for the sun to come out. Soon they say. I found this to be pretty smooth and quite enjoyable. 6
