L'Arpent Rouge is made from Pineau D'Aunis , an old and not much used anymore grape that a few Loire Valley producers like Clos Roche Blanche and Belliviere are reviving. Why, drink wine, of course. | | | | | | |
| | | BROOKLYN GUY LOVES WINE JUNE 30, 2009 By the Glass - Top Quality Muscadet Edition Our bottle of 2007 Domaine de la Pépière Muscadet Clos des Briords was corked, sadly, as was our 2005 Luneau-Papin L D'Or. 2006 Guy Bossard Muscadet de Sèvre et Maine Expression d'Orthogneiss , $19, Kysela Imports. 2006 wasn't the greatest vintage in Muscadet, but this is great wine. Perhaps even the seafood stereotype entirely. | | | | | | | | | |

DR. VINO | SATURDAY, DECEMBER 20, 2008  John Gilman - View from the Cellar - On collecting and collectible values
Started in 2006, John has quickly won the respect of collectors and the people in the trade. Clearly one of the places to start would be with 2005 or 2006 Loire reds - they will age along the lines of a top-flight Bordeaux and offer tremendous value.

BROOKLYN GUY LOVES WINE | SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2009 Tales from the Dressner Portfolio Tasting
Dressner did cut a few corners this year, for example by refusing to hire staff for the tables and thereby forcing wine makers from small villages scattered throughout the Loire Valley to travel all the way to NYC to pour the wines themselves. loved the 2005, not as much the 2006, never saw the 2007, and now we have the 2008.

The 2005 Reynald Héaulé Vin de Table L'Insoumis de Village , or 'Black Sheep of the Village' (about $30) is a serious country wine made by one of the new wave Loire Valley natural wine hipsters. The 2006 Philippe Bornard Trousseau Le Ginglet Arbois Pupillin (about $25) was redolent of red berries and cinnamon. MORE >> -
BROOKLYN GUY LOVES WINE | MONDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 2009  Domaine de Bellivière - Keeping it Real in the Northern Loire
The northern most vineyards in western France are in the Loire Valley appellations of Jasnières and Coteaux du Loir. In the late 1990's inspired wine making came to Jasnières and Coteaux du Loir in the form of Eric and Christine Nicolas who own and operate Domaine de Bellivière. An incredibly strange wine, but I love it. MORE >> -
