“A ripe and peppery nose of black cherry leads to rich, seductive and caressing flavors that possess a juicy mouthfeel that contrasts with the mildly rustic and sneaky long finish. To enjoy young for its fresh fruit and refreshing character. Drink 2025+” 86-88points – Allen Meadows, burghound.com – Apr 2024
“The 2022 Bourgogne Passetoutgrains is a blend of one-third Gamay and two-thirds Pinot Noir that is a representation of the vineyard. It has a pure, enticing bouquet with lovely blueberry and cassis scents. The palate is very well-balanced with a harmonious entry. The Pinot leads the way, and, you know, this might be the best Passetoutgrain I’ve tasted in Burgundy this vintage. Drink from 2024-2028.” 87-89 points – Neil Martin vinous.com Nov 2023

Cola, blackcurrant, blackberry, cinnamon, coffee, milk chocolate, clove and violets. Full bodied, plush and lifted by Christmas cake spice and crunchy red fruits. Luxurious and round, with ripe tannins and soft acids. The most digestible Vat 8 of recent […]
Add to cartThe power of blends is clearly evident and this was for me my favorite wine in the Tim Smith line up. The different grapes have complemented each other beautifully. Rich, juicy, hedonistic, fragrant and savory, the Mataro adding smoke, compost and firm, grippy tannins. Controlled power, the shiraz still comes through strongly, a mass of […]
Add to cart Producer: Tim SmithAre blends better than single varietals? This Cabernet Syrah would certainly stoke the fires of debate, and I would have loved the opportunity to taste the unblended varietals. Very refined, in the claret vein, balanced poised, powerful and graceful. Stunning flavours of violets, plum, blackcurrant, raspberry, tobacco and cream. Terrific shape, across an even plane, […]
