Clos La Madeleine

Couly-Dutheil

La Baronnie Madeleine Chinon Cabernet Franc

Vintage 2015 | Italian rooftiles coloured rim, spicy smell and nicely developed velvety taste. Chinon that is aged can be só comforting. Cab franc shines. Paired with a simple but good spaghetti meatballs tomatosauce. It makes my day. — 3 days ago

Kurtatsch Cortaccia (Michael Chiarrelo)

Alto Adige - Südtirol Müller-Thurgau 2021

A cross between Riesling and Madeleine Royal. Lemon color with aromas of ripe stone and tropical fruits and herb spice. On the palate flavors of peaches, apple, lemon and melon with wet stone mineral. Vivid acidity with great mouthfeel on medium+ finish ending with fruit and herbs. Good now. — 7 months ago

How are the prices there relative to pricing in the US? 25% less? More?

This was ~$140 on the wine list at Caves Madeleines. That is why we had 2 Ramonet wines back to back.

Château de Montfaucon

Comtesse Madeleine de Montfaucon Côtes du Rhône Clairette 2018

[99% Clairette, 1% Grenache Blanc] the Grenache Blanc — at 1% — really shows up front aromatically and on the palate, this is clearly more youthful than the 2016, though less viscous on the palate, quite fresh and fine!! — 2 months ago

Louis Roederer

Cristal Brut Champagne Chardonnay Pinot Noir Blend 2013

Pale gold with infinitesimally tiny pearl. Sweet Meyer lemon micro-layer in cream on brioche. Lemon madeleine, rose leaf, lemon pith, grapefruit essence, baby’s breath, vidalia, toasted challah; smoothest silky mousse. Bright and zesty lime thoroughly coats the mouth; lemon oils bubbling. Lemongrass depth, with starfruit and quince streaks. Palpable minerality and saline interplay. Races on forever.

Château Grand-Pontet

Saint-Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2020

2020 vintage. The last vintage for this wine as it was bought from the Bécot family ( owners of Beauséjour-Bécot) by the owners of Haut-Brion in 2021. It will be incorporated into Château Quintus (which is a merger of 3 estates: Tertre-Daugay, L'Arrosée and Grand-Pontet). Many Saint-Emilion estates disappeared, incorporated into other estates, some very good wines sadly disappeared like Curé Bon La Madeleine (now into Canon), Cadet-Piola (now into Soutard) and so on. The fact that Grand Cru Classés can legally be incorporated into Premier Grands Crus Classés tells you that you have to take the classification with more than a grain of salt. A bit shy on the nose, even after a few hours. Medium-bodied, nice value for a Saint-Emilion Grand Cru Classé. — 2 years ago
