The next super-big typhoon is approaching.

Oh! No!

 

 

 

1st Chateau Canet Alternative Chardonnay 2017 Sample Tasting

This sample white wine is made from 100% Chardonnay grown in cool climate vineyards in Languedoc.

Floris, the owner & winemaker of the winery, used to produce wine in Burgundy for a long time.

Then the style of wine has the hint of Burgundy.

I felt very concentrated-rich fruits, charming vanilla nuance, fine acidity and good minerals.

I would like to try to taste this after long maturing.

 

 

2nd Chateau Canet Minervois Les Evangiles 2016 Sample Tasting

It is a brand-new red wine made by Chateau Canet from 80% Syrah and 20% Grenache grown in Minervois.

Even though I felt tremendously concentrated-rich fruits, the taste was very delicate and elegant.

I didn’t feel any high alcohol touch.

I also felt some tropical fruits nuance.

I would like to try to taste this one after a long maturation, too.

I am sure it is a very high potential red wine.
