This is from the good if not great, 2014 vintage. It is 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay. Light golden in color with a nice mousse of tiny bubbles. Clear and bright. The nose is smoky with lanolin, toast, slight ginger and a bit of chalk. Full bodied. Great balance. On the palate, this is showing young-ish with notes of oranges, toast and an interesting chalk note especially on the finish. Ripe. Long finish. This is drinking well now and should continue if well stored for another ten years. Very food friendly, it would be very nice with lobster.
This is the first vintage in which the grapes for this were made using biodynamic and organic principles. Just a gorgeous wine. Medium golden in color, clear and bright with a nice mousse of thick, tiny bubbles. The nose is deep with slight toast, green apples, slight lemon curd and minerality. Full bodied. Lots of energy. Great balance. On the palate, this is showing youthfully. Lemons, slight green apples, toast and chalk. Long, long finish. Delicious. This is wonderful on its own, and would work with most foods. It would be great with shellfish. Drink over the next ten to f
This is a wonderful Champagne. Light silvery gold in color. A nice mousse with lots of tiny bubbles. The nose is clean with seltzer, minerals and as it opens, slight cherry notes. On the palate, this has great tart acidity. Lots of lemons and some quince. As it warms, some vanilla comes out. Long chalky finish. This is very young but drinking quite well right now. Will go with just about any food. Give it a few years and it will probably earn a perfect score.
Wow. An ethereal wine that is both intense and present yet also so light as it dances on the palate. Silvery gold in color with a fine bead of tiny bubbles making up the mousse. The nose has some smoke and light citrus but the minerality steals the show for m. On the palate, the lime and tangerine come out a bit more over a nice mineral base. More lemon on the very long finish. It is also delicious. This is young but drinks so easily. Can it get better? I would say no, it will just change. Drink any time over the next couple of decades. This would work with just about any food an
This is a blend of 40% Pinot noir, 40% Chardonnay, and 20% Pinot Meunier. This is drinking very nicely. Light golden in color. The nose has red apples, brioche and slight toast. On the palate, this is easy, crisp and very enjoyable. The apples come thru with an underlying minerality. Good acidity. Nice finish. This should be consumed in the next few years. It is quite food friendly and will go with almost any food.
