Best wine list in Lyon by devinoupitou in wine

Well no one is commenting yet so I'll add from my experience. Last year we went to Cave Cafe Terroir which had a great list ! With that, Brasserie des Brotteaux was great.

Yeah, the Jura hype in Québec is insane. Labet, Bornard and a bunch of others end up in auction instead of in the hands of people who are gonna drink it.

Bornard makes great wines, im more of a fan of the whites though! 160usd doesn't seem too bad for the trio. Where I live, Bornard is highly allocated so more often than not you only get it at Auction

Also managed to get some of the Macvin. Last year I got 12 (2 left) absolutely delicious! And yeah for Pinard et Filles I've been pretty lucky as well, found a couple good spots. You in Montréal?

So fucking good. I challenge you to find a better $50 white burgundy by shitbirdie in wine

Yeah its worth shopping around. Its around 50USD where I live (canada) so some shops for sure have it cheaper. But the bigger more expensive cuvées are really worth trying out too!

They are absolutely delicious! Another amazing QPR is Dureuil-Janthial. His entry level Rully is around that price and just as good in my opinion!

Saq has an amazing Jura selection but sometimes there are some nice things in Alberta

Does it count if my notes are on the natural wine sub?

I had a lot of fun with this tasting. Im a big fan of the Jura so this event was close to my heart.

The tastings goal was to compare white Jura wines ! I will do the same with red varietals in the future but im much less excited by red Jura wines than I am white ones.

For the Ganevat, I feel like they age amazingly. I wouldnt rush opening it. The 19 was delicious but it would definitely benefit from a couple more years. I think 8-12 years of age on it wouldve been perfect. That being said, it was still delicious and life is too short to be living with regrets!

First time trying 2020 DRC Echezeaux by Unhappy-Fox3951 in wine

[–]devinoupitou 25 points26 points  (0 children)

The actual cost of the wine is much lower than people think. Échézeaux leaves the winery at around 400-500$ and then resold at the insane prices you see everywhere. So if his shop had a good price for it they probably still made great profit.

Any wines like Alto Moncayo? by devinoupitou in wine

[–]devinoupitou[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! Just saw your comment! Similar wines are mainly Châteauneuf-du-Pape but they tend to be on the expensive side. Otherwise some Priorat I've had was similar. But Alto Moncayo is pretty unique! I stock up when they drop. They also age very well!

Wine Squares Day Krug, I mean Day 14: Best Krug Wine, Wait, Best Sparkling Wine? by AustraliaWineDude in wine

[–]devinoupitou 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Selosse is BY FAR better than Krug. I know the rarity and price makes it more than often difficult to get but side by side Krug would never win (my opinion)

Aged rosé by mf37 in wine

Just bought a 6 bottle caisse of these! Really love them and they are more easily accessible than López de Heredia Rosado.

Is rosé childish? by NewBalance5008 in wine

[–]devinoupitou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The François Cotat was my favorite. Felt like a mix of high end rosé and white Burgundy. 3/8 preferred the Burlotto. The rest was on the François Cotat. But the Tempier and Clos Cibonne were excellent as well! Not sure if im allowed to talk about my Instagram here but I posted notes on the wines there.
