Great showing for this wine (also see the note on their sparkling Gamay wine found at https://www.intowine.com/reviews/nv-domaine-de-la-voute-des-crozes-effer... Garnet in color with purple swirls, mostly clear and bright.  The nose is deep with black cherries, cherries, and nutmeg.  Full bodied.  Firm tannins.  Lovely texture.  On the palate, there is plenty of black cherry fruit and some cherries with a touch of minerality.  Good bala

Another Beaujolais from a top Burgundy negociant.  Garnet in color with a purple core, mostly opaque and bright.  The nose is nice with cherries, cherry blossoms, strawberries and slight anise.  Lovely texture.  Light tannins.  Lower acidity.  Cherries with some anise especially on the finish.  Drinking well now on its own and should work well with food.  Mushroom pasta in a cream sauce would work well.  Drink over the next seven to ten years.  

Nice showing for this wine.  This is made with semi-carbonic maceration (according to the importer).  Garnet in color with some purple swirls.  The nose has cherries and strawberries along with some floral notes.  Very pretty.  Lovely texture.  Firm tannins.  Nicely balanced.  On the palate, cherries with some dark cherries.  This is nice on its own and very food friendly.  It would go well with (vegetarian) chili.  Drink over the next eight to ten years.  

Garnet in color, mostly clear and bright.  The nose is nice with candied cherries, slight floral note and a hint of char.  Light tannins.  Velvety texture.  On the palate, cherries, some cherry candy with a bit of minerality.  Fennel on the finish.  This drinks easily on its own and should work with most dishes other than sea food.  A nice pasta wine.  Drink over the next ten years.  

A very unusual sparkling wine imported by Kermit Lynch.  These wines are made by Nicole Chanrion whose family holdings are in Cote-de-Brouilly.  The wine is made from Gamay Noir grapes grown on 50 year old vines and made in the Method Tradionnelle.  It is a vintage wine although the label does indicate vintage.  The color is light golden with a bit of copper color.  A nice mousse with smaller bubbles.  The nose has a light strawberry and red apple note along with a seltzer quality.  Medium bodied.  Some acidity.  On the palate, red apples, some minerality and a slightly bitter tone becoming

While not inexpensive, this is one of the better "affordable" Grand Cru wines in Chablis.  Green/gold in color, clear and bright.  The nose is great with crushed shells and sea air.  With air, a bit of lime comes out.  Full bodied.  No tannins.  On the palate, limes, quince, slight salinity with a nice texture.  Good acidity.  Long finish.  This drinks great on its own but is better with food.  It would be great with oysters.  Drink over the next eight to ten years.  

A blend of 195 wines from twelve vintages back to 1998, 51% Pinot Noir, 38% Chardonnay, 11% Meunier, base vintage 2014, bottled spring 2021.  Another top notch effort by arguably the best producer in Champagne.  Light golden in color with a multitude of very tiny bubbles.  Lovely froth.  The nose is great with ginger, slight brioche, slight caramel and lemon.  Full bodied.  On the palate, this is delicious.  Some salinity with lemons and slight ginger ale.  Good balance.  Long finish.  This version does not seem to have quite the quality of the prior few which is unfortunate given how expen

This is made from 100% Syrah in the Northern Rhone.  Purple in color with a ruby rim, opaque and bright.  The nose is nice if a bit reticent at first.  Boysenberries with slight sandalwood and a bit of floral qualities and char.  Full bodied.  Light tannins.  On the palate, this is understated but quite good.  Boysenberries with some char and spice.  Deep.  Good balance.  Long finish.  This is nice on its own and better with hearty food.  It went well with Roasted Peppers and Root Vegetables.  Drink over the next eight to twelve years. 

My first time trying wine.  Very nice.  Gold green in color, clear and bright.  The nose is a bit chalky with apples (mostly green).  Good acidity.  On the palate, this is crisp and tasty.  Chalky with lemons.  Nice finish.  Nice on its own, but this is very food friendly.  It went great with a caprese salad.  Drink over the next seven to ten years.  Nice value.

Wow.  Beautiful wine.  Golden in color, clear and bright.  The nose has slight tangerine, pears, chalk and a bit of ginger.  Full bodied.  Dry.  Deep if still tight.  Great balance.  On the palate, this is delicious.  Young, so if drinking soon, give it air.  Notes of ginger, pears and slight burnt orange peel.  Long finish.  This is great now, but still may improve a bit.  Drink over the next twenty years.  Great on its own or with food.  This would work well with grilled Trout.
