White rhone blend — 10 years ago
Recommended by sommelier at Miller & Lux, steak and risotto dinner. Decanted for 30 minutes, then served over the course of 60 minutes. Lovely fruit. Smooth and fine. One of the top Pinot Noir's I have ever had the pleasure.

Given to us by my daughter and boyfriend last year. Cork was moldy and decayed and broke while opening. Was afraid it was "corked" but to our surprise it drank beautifully. Perhaps a bit past its prime but still quite fruity and nice tannins. A delightful surprise! — 9 years ago

Purchased12+ years ago, drank it last week with family and friends. Steak and risotto dinner. Initial tasting at bottle opening gave me concerns, was
afraid it had peaked long before, whiff of vinegar, no fruit. Decanted, tasted again after 30 minutes, had begun to open up. Started drinking after another 30 minutes and wow, what a difference! Have never experienced that great a change in a wine. So superb. The sommelier just smiled. Fruit rose up, very fine tannins,so smooth, loved it. Wish I had another bottle. Drink now. — 2 years ago

White rhone blend. Their "reserve". The Comtesse Madeleine wines are all whites. — 10 years ago
