Domaine de Bellivière (Eric Nicolas) Rouge-Gorge Coteaux Du Loir Pineau d'Aunis 2013

Andrew Chen

I love this wine but sadly this bottle was cooked. Just can't find the words...

Matti Jokelainen

Complex, bold, demanding. Lemon, grape fruit, some gosberry and melon, white pepper. Very focuswd and dry. Keeps evolving in the glass. Needs air or decant even.

Dorit Handrus

Almost...and there it is! Do NOT rush me...do not! If you are in any hurry, just put this back. Glass? no. shake up? No. Decanter? I guess? Just give it a couple hours and: black pepper, white pepper, rosemary, game meats, seashells. Time for another bottle. And quick!

Jonathan Patch

Beautifully aromatic, light-footed.

Delectable Featured Wine

In wine, revolution often comes in the form of discovering something old and previously forgotten. Such is the case with the ancient Loire variety Pineau D'Aunis. Light-bodied, with a pomegranate tartness and endlessly compelling aromatics (think Middle Eastern spice bazaar), the grape can produce a seriously exotic beauty of a wine. Prime example is vigneron Eric Nicolas' Rouge Gorge, which year in and out captivates with curiousity and elegance. #bastilleday

2013- this is it! Reductive, but in the most pleasant way. Tart cranberry. Yesss
