2015 Domaine de Chapusse
Good Rosé. Combination of honey and spices, usual for Provence. Just in this one honey overpowers spices.
Was great wit fruits and chocolate dessert.

2014 Bas-Rochet
Very good Bordeaux. Black currant,with red currant appearing after aeration.
Was great with Norwegian (with smoked salmon) pizza.
2015 Dauvergne Ranvier
Two guys from Rhône valley created a company with people in Bordeaux. Result is... interesting. After opening a bottle, it's Bordeaux all right. After aerator, you feel something strange. Half an hour later (and, with good decanting, may be mucj sooner) I would say it's pretty good Côtes du Rhône. Or you can think of it as of full-bodied Bordeaux.
Was great with seared veal. Wouldn't have it with any fish but tuna. Would buy it again if it were available in US.
