Gary is tasting some perfect Game Day wines tomorrow, Saturday, January 25 from 12-5 in our Ridgefield Store

Antonin Rodet is a beautiful winery located in the heart of Burgundy, France, a region known for high-quality wine production. Founded in 1875 in the village of Mercurey, Antonin Rodet has a rich history and is celebrated for its expertise in crafting exceptional wines that express the unique terroirs of Burgundy. They are both sustainable and biodynamic. This Saturday we will be tasting the 2023 vintages of both Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.

2023 Bourgogne Chardonnay is 100% Chardonnay and presents itself with golden hues of light silver-grey tints. The nose is expressive, featuring aromas of flowers and honey. On the palate, it offers a direct attack with good acidity, accompanied by flavors of acacia and lightly candied fruits with a long finish. This wine loves French triple cremes and also harder sheeps milk cheeses. Add a little Jambon de Bayonne and you are good to go! 

The 2023 Bourgogne Pinot Noir displays a beautiful cherry red color. On the nose, it is expressive, offering aromas of red fruits such as cherry and strawberry. The palate is round and delicious, with a good tannic structure and great aromatic persistence. Put this wine next to a bowl of pasta with our bolognese or a perfectly ripe camembert and the stage is set.

On a personal note… feeling grateful and blessed

This year I find myself truly humbled by the love and support of my partner in life Monica, and all of our friends, especially the Bouissou’s. This has been a very trying time for us and I want to give thanks to all that have been here for me and Monica. 

Thursday was Monica and Sarah’s birthday and they truly are both the light that shines into so many of our lives. They are kind, forgiving, strong and caring. They can both teach us all a thing or two about kindness and we should be thankful to have them in our lives.

Happy Birthday Monica and Sarah, you two truly are so special. Love you both. Monica, I love you more.
