Wine Enthusiast enthusiastic about 2014 vintage #Cahors

Permalink, by Château du Cèdre, aucun commentaire

Château du Cèdre 2014(93 points)
Spicy black-currant aromas on the nose and intense juicy black fruit on the dense palate. The rich, generous layers of fruit perfectly balance the tannins that build up to a harmonious whole.

Le Cèdre Cahors 2014(94 points)
Bursting with juicy ripe berry fruit and with firm background tannins. Its great fruitiness is contrasted with the strength of those tannins and with its concentration.

Vintage 2017 - A key year for Domaine Santa Duc

Permalink, by Domaine Santa Duc, aucun commentaire

After several years of observing our vineyards, we are more than ever convinced that every terroir seeks to express the character of its landscape, its soils and its climate through the wines we make. Our task and responsibility as winemakers is therefore not limited to cultivating vines, but above all to creating and maintaining a harmonious natural environment from which the cultures feed.
We have found this harmony in organic and biodynamic farming, which we have been practicing for (...) — Lire la suite.
Château du Cèdre Cahors Extra Libre 2016 - Free as a bird!

Permalink, by Sebastian Nickel, aucun commentaire

This sulphur-free, natural wine celebrates its third birthday with the 2016 vintage and shows quite a character for its young years. Fresh berries like raspberries, strawberries and blackcurrants prevail in the nose, while a hint of lemon peel and black pepper give heaps of energy to the bouquet. It furthermore expresses the entire exuberance that characterizes the 2016 vintage in Cahors and elsewhere in France through its juicy taste and crisp tannins. Some spices and dried fruit complete (...) — Lire la suite.
“We have rarely tasted so much terroir in a sparkling wine. Impressive!” - VINUM december 2017

Champagne J.Vignier – Les Longues Verges
A bouquet offering particular transparency and purity, with discreet green melon notes and a hint of golden fruit, immensely transparent and airy on the palate, with almost extreme minerality, slender but very long; we have rarely tasted so much terroir in a sparkling wine. Impressive!
Champagne J.Vignier – Silexus Sézannensis
In transparent, mineral and decidedly straightforward style, reticent, slender and long, offering impressive personality; (...) — Lire la suite.
Domaine Santa Duc Châteauneuf-du-Pape « La Crau Ouest » 2015 by The Wine Advocate

Permalink, by Domaine Santa Duc, aucun commentaire

My top pick from the outstanding lineup of Santa Duc’s 2015 Châteauneufs was the 2015 Chateauneuf du Pape La Crau Ouest, of which only 200 cases were produced. This pure Grenache o ers sumptuous aromas of violets and roses to go along with cherries and licorice. It’s full-bodied, intense, deep and long, with tannins that properly support the wine’s complexities rather than overwhelming them.

Domaine Santa Duc – A #wine list as in the restaurant

With Christophe Aru

It’s now more than a year when I took over the Santa Duc wine shop in the centre of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. To me, the presence of Santa Duc in what may be considered as the most famous village of the Côtes-du-Rhône, was inevitable. Thus, more than just a simple wine shop, it is a part of the winery.
One might imagine that it is quite difficult for a sommelier to look after the wines of just one estate. But Santa Duc has a very diverse offer. There are the single vineyard selections from Gigondas (...) — Lire la suite.
Discover the true spirit of Château du Cèdre #Cahors

Permalink, by Sebastian Nickel, aucun commentaire

Spirits fascinate me. They present the quintessence of fruit and fermentation and act as a true enhancer of terrois and the “savoir faire”. Abominable “fire water”, when prepared without care, the best among them equal the greatest wines of this world with ease.
Recently, I paid a visit to the brothers Verhaeghe in Cahors and came to enjoy their “Eau de Vie de Marc de GC”. A name that requires some explanation. GC is the name of the top wine of the estate. Made exclusively from Malbec, it’s both (...) — Lire la suite.
