qotd: Had a gamay-pinot noir blend out of Loire from the tiny v.d.q.s. appellation of Chateaumeillant. Not expensive which was good as I was not very impressed.

Keep those nerd episodes coming Gary

Enjoyed this NERD episode, travel down this road more frequently man. Santenay is not a region I shop without a somme but I smell a RN 74 visit in my future and Santenay may be the call!

QOTD: De Martino, 2006, Old Vines Carignan, Maule Valley Chile.
nose is menthol, milk chocolate, red fruit. Flavour is really fresh fruit acidity, then red fruit, high cocoa count style tannins, needs a few more years. 88-89

You really need lessons in French pronounciation, haha, but what you know about wine would fill this galaxy, so I shouldn’t carp and quibble.

It’s FRANSWA (Francois) and VYAY (Vieilles). Call me. Anytime. Spell the French word, or even the Italian one, and I’ll tell you how to pronounce it.

GV – interesting show. I love Burgundy! I particularly like the stinky wines and stinky cheeses.

QOTD – I am weeks late in watching and commenting and I do not remember what I drank a few weeks back. But this weekend I drank some 90+ cellars wines, which are actually pretty good – Malbec, Cabernet, Shiraz/Viognier, Chardonnay, Sauv Blanc. (I didn’t drink bottles of all of those, I tasted them all).

This week I drank an Imperial Stout from up your neck of the woods (being the US). A label we just got in to work, the Rogue’s XS RIS. Honestly not my cup-o-tea.
Considering the raps it had received I would say this was a very disappointing bevvy. Unbalanced and overtly bitter with an overwhelming Vegemite and yeasty extract character which was utterly unappealing. For the cash this is a beer that should rock my socks off, instead it just sent me to the fridge to grab a palate cleanser.
Rogue’s other beers have been over all fairly good to great, but this was a shocker.

I liked the look at Santenay Mr V. An overlooked little slice of Burgs that can produce some excellent drinking wines.
Cheers from the land down under.
