The 2014 Clinet @berrybrosrudd has Black cherry, smoke, graphite, chocolate and French oak , Hints of lavender and violet develop in the glass. It’s a big, imposing wine in need of cellaring. Also shows signs of plum, crème de cassis, spice-box, dried flowers, and graphite aromas. It’s a wine that can be drunk now ( although I wouldn’t recommend it as it’s a big wine 😁) but leave it for 5 years.

For such a reasonable price and a light summery drink with a touch of pepperyness this is a ‘no-brainer” enjoy with delicate foods and works@well with fish 🐟

#francoisgay Pernand-Vergelesses: Domaine François Gay & Fils 2015 Father and son team, François and Pascal Gay are based in Chorey-les-Beaune and produce a range of red wines from different local appellations (Beaune, Chorey, Savigny, Ladoix, Corton), as well as one white from Pernand-Vergelesses. It has appealing green apple 🍏 scents and an elegant orchard fruit palate offset by chalky, mineral notes and underscored by a fine acidity. It is best served lightly-chilled (around 12-14⁰C) and makes a marvellous accompaniment to poached salmon or roast chicken 🐓 #chardonnay #greenapples #citrus #france #pernandvergelesses #burgundy #whitewine #winewithdinner #wineonitsown great on a lazy weekend with friends
