2024 vintage. Medium-medium heavy body. Floral, perfumed, delicate fruits, earth/minerals. Always such a lovely, alt-white wine for shellfish, poultry, fish. salads or simply sipping. 3.27.26. — 4 months ago

(Disgorged 2/15)- Always and forever my number 1 Lieux-Dits and without question one of the very best Blanc de Blancs Champagnes on the planet, tonight it is extra special with its coveted 2008 base and 2015 disgorgement. Always with imposing power, drive and crazy depth to its layers, it unfurls in a Burgundy glass to reveal its complex core of rich orchard fruit, roasted nuts, gun smoke, toasty oak and candied white flowers, all with seamless integration and balance. The palate is generous and detailed, with ripping citrusy acids, waves of saline laced chalky Le Mesnil minerals and a finish that just keeps going. For me, a BdB benchmark. — 4 years ago

Wow! Still bright, chalky, and full of youthful grip. Red plum, raspberry, lichee and white pepper notes are most dominant. This could easily go another few years and not be at its peak. — 6 years ago

Wine #2 in ‘old world’ flight. Tasted blind, decanted and from magnum. The most unique and fascinating wine of the evening with crazy exotic sweet flavors. Flight winner. — 8 years ago

If the 2010 Dauvissat forest on the prior night was about pleasure then this is about pain. Piercing; incredibly palate staining grapefruit rind and lemon segments. Long and tense. Still felt crazy young (or shutdown?) We did enjoy it but I’d wait on this if you can — 9 years ago

Lemons and crisp minerality on the nose, lemon heavy on the front flavor, with a crisp minerality on the mid-palate. Heavy citrus, it's delicious. — 6 years ago

Terrific Sauvignon Blanc with all of the positive NZ attributes, but the balance is better than most. Delicious on its own or with food, especially fish and chicken. 2018 — 7 years ago

Stunning wine with crazy flavors yet totally different from almost any other syrah I have had. Lean and austere yet very full flavored. A unique wine. The opposite end of the spectrum from a Saxum or Alban or Barossa Valley Syrah. — 8 years ago

8.9

Young wine with mild OH on the nose paired with very nice fruit. Plums, prunes, and blackberry on the palate, but lighter than most cabs. Nice finish, and the recommendation was spot on as this wine definitely punches above it's weight at $20+. Curious as to other opinions. — 9 years ago

Blueberry red and aroma in oak. Sweet and spicy. Makes me crazy its balanced taste. Comfortable and complex. Acidity is changed a lot. Yogurt. vega sicilia valbuena 5 ribera del duero 18 @8500, X, 240607 — 2 years ago

Very deep marmalade and candied orange. Pure and glycerin with a really lifted, clear midpalate. A crazy combination of flavors. Tawny, tangy and intense. Fascinating. — 8 years ago
