Amazing rich, fruity and stiff. — 7 months ago
Delicious! Ripe lush and smooth. It was perfect with beef. — 2 years ago
Very standard Cab Sauv on the nose, but the palate is more fruit forward than I expected with hints of blackberry and even a little cherry. Also hints of tobacco. Solid tannins on the finish. — 2 years ago

Rounding into form. A lovely bottle to spend a couple evenings with. Definitely turning garnet,but still rich, bright, and warm. — 5 months ago
Pear on the nose; melon on the tongue. Smooth as silk. — 2 years ago
@Delectable Wine : This is Domaine Les Monts Fournois’s Vallée 75 Mois de Cave - Premier Cru NV de Luxe. I didn’t see it in the database.
From winemaker Juliette Alips (Louis Latour, GD Vajra, Louis Roederer), cousin of the Bereche brothers (who are helping consult).
I love any and all things by Bereche, so when this new producer became available to try, I bought this as well as the vintage Grand Cru Cramant (which I posted a month or two ago).
As the name suggests, this receives 75 months on the lees. Base 2015, disgorged Sept ‘22. Blend of Pinot Noir (70%), Chardonnay (20%), and Pinot Meunier (10%). What I enjoyed about this over the Cramant was how Bereche-like it was. Powerful, beautifully ripe, textural as expected from the extended lees contact. Spiced golden apple, Mirabelle, layers of ripe and exotic yellow fruit before channeling the darker red berry fruit. Kiss of toast and sea spray at the finish. Wears its 5.5g/l dosage really well. I enjoyed this quite a bit. 93+ — 2 years ago
"Odedi"
Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.
Fresh cherries on the nose with chocolate notes.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with nice complexity.
Showing red cherries, currants, plums, licorice, chocolates, herbs and earth.
Long finish with round tannins and tangy raspberries.
This is a delicious Grenache blend from Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Rich and powerful. Well balanced and complex. The high alcohol is well integrated already.
Nicely Structured and tasty, with a
Northern Rhone feel. Interesting stuff.
Still young, but already drinking beautifully. A great vintage that is already showing its potential. Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years.
Good by itself as a sipping wine or with food.
A blend of 80% Grenache, 10% Syrah and 10% Mourvedre. Aged in mostly concrete vats.
15% alcohol by volume.
92 points.
