Pristine! 2013 Porusot is in a perfect place, a significant step in complexity and weight from the Lieu-dits, showing stunning concentration and fruit density and layered aromatics with racy citrusy acids, stony minerality and superb length and texture on the palate. Top notch white burg. — 12 days ago
Very impressive for entry level of Morgen Long. So Burgundian! They’re making some of the best old world style Chardonnay’s in the USA. — a month ago
Insane value. From 2 Grand Cru sites, old vines, handed over to Julian from Keller. — 10 days ago
(Disg. 2014)…Some of the most captivating aromatics you’ll ever find from Champagne, stunningly complex with infinite layers, racy acids and chalky minerality. Such incredible intensity, verve and an explosively long finale. Nothing like Selosse. Untouchable! — 18 days ago
Yquem flight! My order of preference is 07, 98, 08. — a month ago
One of my favorite terroirs in all of Burgundy. 2016 Malco from de Montille is showing beautifully, with superb definition, deep fruit intensity, a vibrant, sappy and textural palate with fine grained tannins and a long saline and mineral laced finish. — 10 days ago
15 is showing very well. A very forward and giving vintage. — 10 days ago
Amazing wine. For me its texture stood out most. Crystalline and pure silk with unbelievable mouthfeel, volume and tension, gaining weight with each pour and building as the night went on. This will be one of the greatest Champagne’s ever made in 10 years. — 18 days ago

One of the most explosive, expressive 09’s I’ve had in recent memory, and one of my favorite Burgundy terroirs, 1er Cru Beaumonts is wafting from the glass tonight holding nothing back with layered and complex aromatics, a liquid cashmere palate with both power and finesse and a long, mineral inflicted finish. Exceptional showing. — 4 days ago
