New addition to the family. Yet to determine if he prefers Loire or Bordeaux wines - a ‘training task’ for the future. Does he qualify for #dogsofwine ? #dogs #labrador

More than two months on from #bdx22 and I’m still explaining on Insta that (a) I did not commit infanticide on a 2022 Petrus (b) so I don’t deserve to be banned from drinking wine (c) I did not drink a fake Petrus because it can’t have been bottled yet. It’s a primeurs sample! 🤪

Has anybody figured out yet that wine discourse has room for expert commentary, *and* 100-point scores, *and* peer-to-peer reviews, *and* elegantly flowery prose? And that none of them have to ”die”? And that wine drinkers can read/use whichever suits them?

Four of the wines poured @chateau_figeac last night - 1995, 1989, 1975, all of which showed very well, but the vigorous 1946 was undoubtedly the headline act. #bordeauxwine #stemilion #wine

Of all Bordeaux’s vineyards, I think those of #Fronsac are perhaps the most picturesque. And they certainly disprove the notion #Bordeaux is flat and featureless. By the way, a bonus point if you know what the green ‘blobs’ in the trees in the final image are. #wine #vineyards

Roast beef, Yorkshire puddings, horseradish sauce, and 1996 Talbot. A bottle from “the clingfilm years” meaning it has been in the cellar since at least 2005. Great wine, btw. #talbot #chateautalbot #stjulien #bordeaux #bordeauxwine #wine

Fairly dramatic and unusual Coravin blow-out - the first press of gas blew the side of the bottle out in a single piece. Good colour for a 2009 Anjou-Villages. Managed to savage a glass! Now let the clean-up commence. #coravin #anjouvillages #domaineogereau #loire #wine

I little piece of me dies every time I see a wine pigeon-holed according to an understanding of the appellation as it was 20+ years ago. Regions and styles evolve - especially in the Loire with a framework of new crus, a new generation of winemakers and a new climate.

Is the wine trade's love affair with Riesling universal? I have tasted and drunk plenty of older Rieslings, mostly German, several this week, and they rarely excite me. Give me an equally mature Chenin Blanc, however, and I'm in heaven. Should I seek help?

Good first day at Wine Paris. Delightful new label design across the board at Henri Bourgeois in #Sancerre . Plenty of #Chinon tasted. #Muscadet too. Might have also found room for a little #Sauternes . #wineparis #wineparis2024 #wine #henribourgeois #olgaraffault #charlesjoguet

I think it would be shellfish of me not to share this DM I received earlier this week.

Looks like I called in on a few more right-bank properties. Four days of 2021 tasting done. Another five to go. #bdx21 #bdx2021 #bordeaux #pomerol #wine
