Not quite sure how, but one of the cats caught this poor fella earlier. Which got me wondering- why are moles never muddy? 🤔

Wonderful few days at #jacquesselosse with another memorable tasting with Anselme. Highest of highlights were the 2008, 2010 and Les Chantereines and Les Carelles 2021 tasted still in barrique. Mind blown.

The true wonder of this wine has finally, fully dawned on me, cooking burgers shamelessly on a hibachi grill. Somewhere between Burgundy and Amarone. 10y reserve- complimenti to @cadeimaghiwine

Sent this to Toblerone earlier. Please retweet if you agree- you can join me in my chalet. #toblerone #toblertwo
Been a while since I’ve had a ‘Massif d’Uchaux’, but loving the wines from De Boel, and I don’t think it’s just because the label compliments my wallpaper.

Great to see former ‘protégés’ head off into the world of wine to forge their own paths. Especially when they return from a ‘stage’ at a top Burgundy domain with ‘samples’. Cheers Will- look forward to following your career (as long as the samples keep coming! 😉)

First night home alone in living memory. Having great fun! Tempus St Peter Ham, duck rillettes, awesome Pecorino Riserva. Oh, and a beaut’ of a Volnay. 🥳

A star bottle this. £20 Cotes de Bourg that tastes like decent Pomerol. Can’t think of too many wines that offer as much bang for your buck. From Bordeaux?! 🤯A moment of clarety (sorry!).

Belated 50th catch up with my old mate @milescorish A few gems already, and whilst the night is still young, this is undoubtedly the wine of the night… extraordinary.

Memorable lunch today @PollenStSocial Loved every special detail of the whole experience. The food was so good I almost shed a tear with one particular mouthful! Impeccable. 👏

Comparing/contrasting/drinking two fine Chenins with Rendang aromas in the air. ‘15 Botanical vs ‘19 Pilon Deronnieres. Was shocked recently when a young Loire winemaker dismissed the quality of SA Chenin. Tempted to send her a bottle of this… #cheninigans
