Ganevat Q-roule
Drinking at home.
Anne et Jean-François Ganevat Q-roule - initially pungent sulfur, stinky shit, but floral notes underneath. Improved with additional aeration and floral, violet notes got more prominent.

French wines with Indian food
Pop up dinner by The Bombay East Indian Girl at Test Kitchen.
Frédéric Lornet Crémant du Jura Brut NV - definitely plenty of red fruits, and also a little pungent. Very easy to drink but with a little bitterness on the finish.
2016 Bechtold Gewurztraminer Obere Hund - very floral nose with lychee and honey. Sweet on the attack but quickly changed to bitter mid-palate, thanks to being too ripe. Almost like mango. Kinda viscous, which helps coat the tongue and neutralizes the heat from spicy dishes.
2007 Josmeyer Pinot Gris "1854" Fondation - more plastic and polyurethane on the nose, oxidized, almost pineapple and kinda lychee, definitely tropical notes. Also some minerals, and ripe on the palate.
2016 Valle Dell'Acate Il Frappato - MEH. Kinda flat on the palate.
2016 Château de Bastard, en demi-bouteille - very ripe and kinda alcoholic on the palate, with beeswax, ripe pineapple, and botrytis notes on the nose.

Dom, Van Berg, and Ganevat
Dinner at Tasting Court.
2008 Moët et Chandon Cuvée Dom Pérignon Chef de Cave Legacy Edition - pretty easy to drink, with a nice finish that carried more depth. Not much of a nose.
Roses de Jeanne Côte de Val Vilaine, dégorgée en Avril 2018 - yeasty and toasty. Good acidity on the palate with some ripeness, but still reasonably stiff.
2004 Didier Dagueneau Silex, en magnum - high acidity as expected, but still pretty rich on the palate. Lemon citrus nose with a little bit of pipi de chat.
2009 Bernard Van Berg La Rose Réserve -
nice and fragrant, fruity and floral, with leather notes. Reminiscent of Prieuré Roch but the nose was not as sweet. Very enjoyable.
2014 Jean-François Ganevat Cuvée de l'Enfant Terrible - nice, sweet fruit, with leather notes. Stemmy and a little pungent.
