My Rec League Starter Pack

Gevrey-Chambertin Grand Cru 2017 - Dominique Gallois

Last bottle of a half-case I bought during Covid. Turns out they’re pretty good at making Pinot in Burgundy. 3/3 exceptional

School House Pinot 2018

Keeping it Pinot - this time California, very off radar from a cool pocket in NW part of Napa (imho some of the best Pinot in California!) 3/3 exceptional

Patrick Lesec Côtes du Rhône Villages Appassionata 2020

Fun GSM I picked up from Last Bottle. A little hot, but offset by rich red fruit and nice acidity. 2/3 Excellent

Matthiasson Carignan, Shannon Ridge Vineyard 2023

Everything from Matthiasson is rec worthy. I ended up with a bottle of this Carignan (wine club inclusion?) and it’s good! Cranberry / red licorice, nice acidity, I’m getting a bit of a mineral finish? 2/3 excellent
