2016 Arcane la Papesse



 A masterpiece. A mix of fruits and berries in the nose and taste. Noticeable taste of citrus. A bit of spices. Perfectly balanced. Great aftertaste. Even thogh it has 15% alcohol, it's soft and silky. Especially after aerator.

Enjoyed it immensely with baked rabbit.

2022 Châteaux Hyot


 Very good. Well balanced, with multiple fruits, including black and red currant.

Enjoyed it with salmon pizza.

2019 Pierron


 Didn't like it. Yes, it's Bordeaux. There is a bit of black currant in the nose and taste. But it's bland. Won't buy it again.

 Nice Beaujolais. Well balanced, with a hint of pear. But I liked Bel Air Rosé more...

Was good with sous-vide tuna.

2023 Cabriz

 At least as good as 2022. Multiple berries, probably a bit more tannines. Aerator improves taste a lot.

Enjoyed it with salmon pizza.

2022 Jean Philippe Cazaux


 Never saw before, never new such producer existed. Now I know. It's very good. Classic Bordeaux, with black currant in the nose and taste, some other fruits. Almost no sugar.

Was very good with smoked salmon pizza.
