this wine has green-yellow color. It's has elegant smells odors of exotic fruits and flowers. This king of wine, made from Sauvignon, has often fruity flavours. It has first a crispy attack and then a refrehing evolution but the taste is nt long in mouth. That's why it's easy to drink and pleasant wine even if it's no structured.

This wine has a brillant medium pale yellow color and this wine has common smells of blackcurrent, jam and blackberry. We can also smells a touch of oak and we can find it in mouth. When we taste it, this wine has a complex aromas of red fruity, moreover it's very agressive the first time but light and more fruity next times. At the end, this wine is well balanced between fruitiness and roundness.
To sum up, this wine is very pleasant, I like the difference of agressivity between the first and the last tasting.

Roux Pere et Fils - St ABIN 1er cru - Les Cortons - 2005
This wine has a brilliant medium golden yellow color, which is quite unusual for a dry wine.
It has rich and complex aromas of fruity cheese (Comte) and pepper and nuts.
The first sip is quite agressive and you can just fell the black pepper taste. Then, the second and third sips allow a freshier attack. The white fruits flavour wrap the palate, and the evolution is rich and nice. The finish is well balanced with roundness and fruitiness.
This is a good, fresh wine, however, it lacks a little bit of fruits. It could have been greater.

TAPIZ Reserva 2008 Argentina.
This pale yellow colored wine has wonderful peach, citrus and apple aromas. The peach flavour can be tasted after the first sip, when you are used to the light acidity.
This is a light, refreshing , medium-bodied wine, very well balanced between fruitiness and roundness.
However, I quite dislike the evolution, which gives a heat impression in mouth. It has too much alcohol feeling for me.

Bourgogne - Pinot Noir - 2006 1er cru- Beaune les Greves, Chateau de Beaune -Cote d'Or. 13,5 %
This wine has a light brick red color.
It has an expressive and complex nose, with red fruits and leather.
In mouth, it as a lively attack and then, coates the palate because it is rich and full-bodied. However the finish is or seems light as it becomes heady. It is well structured between tannis and roundness with a taste of cherry and pepper.
It would be nice with chicken, or meet with white sauce.

Chateau Poujeaux 2006 - Philippe Cuvelier - Moulis en Medoc - 13%
This wine has a deep true red color.
It has strong smells of black fruits, and you can smell tannins rightaway.
In mouth, it tastes leather, oak and even smoke.
It also has a light peper taste.
This wine is well structured, with an intense attack and a light finish. It feels rich and long in mouth and gives a heat feeling.
This strong, fine wine made of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes would be great with lamb.

This young wine has a beautiful deep raspberry color.
At the first smell, you can catch pepper and toasted bread aromas.
This wine made of 100% Cabernet franc grapes has a light refreshing attack, a light evolution and a light finish. It is easy to drink and tastes like gooseberry.
In few years, it'll be nice with fried fish.
