Tete du Clos Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Chardonnay 2017

”Super premier cru” Tête du Clos is sourced from an old vine parcel in the upper part of Morgeot. Kind of like Chapelot of MDT. Just like the bottle I had in September, it’s electric tonight with killer yellow fruit intensity, a stunningly elegant texture, stony minerality and ripping citrusy acids. There’s such tension and drive on the palate that takes the fruit and minerality all the way home. Love these wines. — 2 years ago

Cœur de Cuvée Rilly-la-Montagne 1er Cru Brut Champagne Blend 2012

Left me speechless. Nose is good but unremarkable for a tete de couvee (until after a while it starts showing sandalwood), the palate is maybe the best and definitely the most interesting I’ve ever tasted. It opens with spreading, razorblade acid which only lasts a moment. Then it leaves a hole in your mouth and it slowly fills with stuff that shouldn’t be in champagne, white pepper, spice and a giant mouthful of evaporated crushed rock. Terrible description but something MAGIC happens. I’m speechless. — 3 years ago

Clos des Demoiselles Tete de Cuvée Brut Blanc de Blancs Crémant de Limoux Mauzac 2019

Lightness and fun leads. Toast and nuts follow. So like a lightly catered cocktail party in a wine. — 3 years ago
