This beautiful straw yellow chardonnay from Beaune France in Bourgogne has a wonderful nose of lemon, pear, and apple blossom with no sediment that was discernable. It has a lingering finish, medium body, smooth texture, medium acidity, and long and slow legs on the glass.

The wine looks crimson colored with fast legs and no sediment in the bottle. It smells like red currant, blackberry and plum with a similar taste. The body is light/medium with a silky texture, short finish, and low acidity. This was a pleasant but non-descript bottle. We generously rated it an 88. The bottle came in a wooden gift case for $39.99 at BJ's with advertising on each bottle of 92 by James Suckling, in my opinion, a very generous scoring professional.

The Garnet Red wine has medium legs, no noticeable sediment, a nose of blackberry, black currant and raspberry. Similar taste characteristics makes this Tuscan Montepulciano one of the better reds that we have tasted in recent months. This wine differentiated itself by the comments from the table where we served it with Fillet Mignon, salad and green beans. It has a medium/full body, medium acidity, a polished texture and a very nice and substantial finish. It definitely enhanced the evening.
