french wine

“There is wine and there is France...” Byron.
Yes French wine are expensive and yes sometimes other price, but , there is pleasure and there is real pleasure.... Sometimes a nice company deserve better than a wine, you need relaxation and an opening of all your senses!!!...

“there is my swimming pool or the bay of Along, I'm still in water but the pleasure is not the same!!!” P. Rothschild

. For everyday dinner there is plenty of choices of wine , But, for That! ! with your loved one!!!there is a selection of vintages and French wine in any good wine list, yes!! but wich one.For red :
If you ar in a more fruity time try a Gamay from Beaujolais, fleurie of course but if you are lucky go for a St Amour or a nice chiroubles well more balance in tannic and red berry.
If its a more serious dinner go for burgundy pinot noir as a Savigny-les-beaunes strawberry and spice, Volnay (if the boss is paying!!) sour cherry and coffee trace, a Gevrey-chambertin say your quality with pepper and oak and finally a Nuits st georges for truffle, oak and cherries"".
A loire will be automatically more light, made most of the time from cabernet try a St nicolas de Bourgueuils for light and fruitycabernet to show of your noledge as well.
The rhone with syrah will be more dense, cote rotie if you are with commercial partner, grown in difficult condition but still one of the best and like him you are raising even in the middle of a difficult situation, great for japanese negociation!!!.
Chateauneuf du pape is the obvious one so go for Gigondas a medium but full body with lots of complexity and fruit (and cheaper!!). for your love one go for a Crozes Hermitage lighter but still a meaty wine from the same region.
All the "vin de pays" after that are a blend of absolutely everithing so go for a medium price range, medium body, corbier will be more tannic, Minervois mor "meaty" style, a costiere de nime more elegant, an Irouleguy spicy and fruity.
For the Bordeaux !!ah! he needs a full revue but just to say that Pauillac will be more "hearthy" and Pomerol and St emilion more "merlot-bouquet" , St julien "fresher", St estephe "dense" and entre de mer "cheaper"!!!!.
so it is as always about you , your tate and mood on the moment and be ready, for traveling and enjoying on another level. So go-on and take the challenge of your palate and senses. And don't worry “If you don't like it , I will drink It!!!” FB.wine poet..
