Beautiful burgundy at a great value. Lots of cooked red cherry with hints of brie and earth. — 6 years ago
So bony and austere. Acid is off the charts. Love it. — 7 years ago
Bollinger's NV Brut Rosé is unfettered elegance, with a shimmering salmon robe and ultra-fine mousse, the nose displays freshly macerated strawberries and raspberries, rose petals and spice. It's all neatly corseted modest toast, with creaminess at the mid-palate lending depth and weight, softening an otherwise be a bony spine. There is minerality here too, but it's discreet. — 10 years ago

Fresh Dry Rich. Domaine Gachot-Monot Saint-Aubin Chardonnay 22 @6930, Umem, 250316-260101 — a year ago
"The population of Faugéres appelation is 3000...and the wine production is still under 100000 liters. That's less than 330 liters per person, which, at a litre a day, doesn't leave much room for exports. Still, you can occasionally find the reds washed up on distant shores...the red has the bony structure of vin de garde beneath a costume of sunmer fruit that flutters charmingly in its own endogenous breezes."

This thing is like a merengue cookie after you get through the citrus zest and gum arabic candy crust. There is a tangerine characteristic, that turns into tangerine pith, and has a powdered sugar millisecond before becoming bony and rich. This thick little lady is bumping in every respect! — 11 years ago

I give this a rather high ratings for my standards, it really came through in terms of what I was hoping g to get from it. A quite minerally, stony bony dry finish, yet a nice bit of funkiness and a raw feeling yet well made. Quite light, had it with seafood, paired really well IMO. — 6 years ago
A beautifully pure 2015. Plenty of rich red fruit and sooo smooth. Gonna be hard to lay this vintage down the way it's drinking. — 9 years ago
This has put on a surprising amount of weight since release, when it was more juicy and bony. Now the fruit has taken on darker tones and a thicker, more gummy texture. In fact it was almost grapey at first but settled down into a more of a "pinotette" profile, with some of the stony / granite personality that makes Carquelin such a notable site. It does still have a slight sizzle of co2 that was hidden under the fruit at first but made this feel a little sharper as the fruit mellowed. — 10 years ago

A color resembling five alive. 0range-beige wet plaster-textured head with falling leaves lacing. Evocative nose of tropical pineapple, lime, tangerine, pink grapefruit, mango, papaya. Creamy mouthfeel with razz-y bite-y parts. Earthy orange-chocolate, ginger root, savory, sarsparilla, nutmeg, tarragon. A feast of cornucopic proportion. Malty and strong. This one really toasts the bony quantum nave. Dare I say ‘it’s money!’
