Domaine De La Pierre Moulin A Vent

 Domaine De La Pierre Moulin A Vent



This 2017 Beaujolais from Moulin-a-Vent, France is from the Henry Fessy Winery and made with Gamay Grapes. This wine cost me about $24.


My Taste:

Scents of strawberry. Tannic and dry aftertaste. Earthy and dark berry taste. The wine was just the right amount of dry and the dryness and tannicity in the aftertaste are actually refreshing. I had this wine with a nice Filet Mignon and Caesar salad and it paired extremely well and became a little more tannic and tasted extremely good with it.

Cardwell Hill Estate Pinot Gris

  Cardwell Hill Estate Pinot Gris This 2019 Pinot Gris is from Willamette Valley, Oregon, and costs about $20. My review: Citrusy and sweet with a good amount of acidity. Light bodied. Nice aftertaste of citrus with a little acidity and some tannic elements. I enjoyed this wine and thought it had just the right amount of citrus and acidity but perhaps a little too sweet for my liking.

Chocolate (The Chocolate Lover's Wine)

  Chocolate (Chocolate Lover's Wine) The Chocolate Shop wine is a Merlot from Washington that costs around $10-$20. This wine, however, does not have a vintage year labeled on it or anywhere online. At first, I thought this wine would be offputtingly sweet due to its name. Although it was sweet, it was just the right amount of sweet for a nice dessert wine. The smell of the wine was amazing with notes of dark cherries and chocolate that made it smell identical to that of a tootsie pop. The wine tasted sweet, floral, with a little bit of spice while having notes of cherry and chocolate just like the scent. I tried it with a piece of chocolate that happened to have bits of ginger in it and it paired really well bringing out the spice in both the ginger and the wine while still tasting really sweet and really good.
