My favorite Gillet bottling. Like a combination of Rousseau and Dujac. Gorgeous bouquet, floral, sappy and vibrant with a deep core of spiced red fruit and spine of minerality adding lift and focus. These wines are absolutely legit. — 2 days ago

Decant your white burgs! This improved so much with air. There’s such power and verve with incredible depth and seamlessness of its layered Chablisen minerality, with buttercream, roasted hazelnuts and an ocean spray-like salinity. It’s texturally captivating, wrapping around the palate with killer density without weight. Racy acids balance its richness and secondary nuttiness and it finishes forever. Excellent. — 18 days ago

Far more giving than the last time I had this vintage but it’s definitely one for the long haul. Will age forever and still showing very young. — 2 days ago

The most showy bottle I’ve had of this wine, 95 Mouton is in a terrific place, and an absolute classic, with Paulliac power and concentration, fine grained tannins and hugely persistent finish. Fantastic with the legendary EMP duck! — 4 days ago

Gosh these wines are amazing. So aromatic wafting from the glass with layers of spiced orchard fruit, bread dough and honey. The palate shows incredible richness and concentration that’s cut with racy citrusy acids and a salty mineral finish that just doesn’t end. Incredible Champagne! Egly is stuff of legends. — 11 days ago

Gorgeous! Incredibly fresh with youthful vigor and classic Paulliac aromatic layers and a rich and concentrated palate with grippy tannins still! This one calls for a nice juicy steak! — 4 days ago

Drinking beautifully! There’s a cool pine resin note that was very intriguing. Paired with Miyazaki Wagyu. — 11 days ago

Amazing vintage for Ramonet. 2020 Ruchottes, one of the absolute best plots in the region, is simply stunning tonight, with incredible richness, density and texture. It’s powerful, focused and already particularly complex flaunting layers of lilies, citrus blossoms and signature Ramonet spearmint freshness. Finish just stays with you. So good! — 11 days ago
