Brut de Charvis Sparkling I was told it was from Burgundy but nothing on the label. Good mousse seems a little fabricated. Out of balance with too much acid, I don’t know the grape but could have some Chardonnay in it. For party or wedding would work.
Piko Sauvignon Blanc New Zealand Nice aromatics and good flavors. Quince, lime flower, sweet pea in the nose. Flavors a bit broad but consistent. Acidity is what’s lacking, ripeness over acid.
Piko Pinot Noir Thin in color but good fruit and body. Cherry fruit with a little candy on the finish. Price is a little over what I’d want but a good solid wine.
Vinos Robles Syree A blend of Petite Syrah with mostly Syrah. Very European but a California wine, better balanced than most Cal wines I taste. Plenty of French oak on nose and well integrated in the flavors and structure of the wine. I wish Syrah wines sold better, this would be one I could recommend. GH
