This pale yellow wine smells strongly of flowers and citrus - it is a beautiful nose, really gorgeous. The palate is somewhat soft and has mineral notes along with Meyer lemon and tangerine. Acidity comes in at medium strength, just enough to tingle the tongue. The sip is wonderful, with great flavors and an easy drinking mouthfeel. — 3 years ago
Wow . Blend of 2018 19 20 21 22 — 2 months ago
This is LV14. No dosage. A year and a half since my last btl, roughly. On the nose: melon, with creme fraiche, basil, meyer lemon, meyer lemon zest. Not sure I would believe BdB blind. Color suggests skin contact...almost soft peach. On the palate: aggressive mousse at first...maybe needed a decant. Lovely acidity, lime, bitter citrus, a touch short, and very juicy on the dense and tangy finish. A stunner. — 4 years ago
Pretty good but a bit pricey at $33 — 2 months ago
Minerality, crispness, mostly dry…a profile I love. I was pleasantly surprised by this find at Fred Meyer!

Dark cherry and raspberries with a little funk on the nose. Mature, but not old at age 16 — 3 years ago
Slightly denser & darker vs the ‘normal’ Spätburgunder... still very fresh & pure yet the cherry gets darker and some darker berries appear and whiff of mushroom. Beautiful mouthfeel, juicy, velvety tannins, the wood showing a nice backdrop against the purity of fruit, the minerality of slate shining through, a touch of dark chocolate & coffee inter finish.
This has flow, this has depth, not sure though if, at this point in time, it justifies the +50% in price vs the normal Pinot.
A truly lovely wine, nonetheless! — 5 years ago

Needs air for 3 hours. Then just great. 13.1 % lots of stuffing here. A powerful Chard with weight and body. Well balanced acidity. Already a hint of Hazelnut but otherwise at this point of its evolution citrus driven. Meyer lemon, sour mandarine, hint of green, touch smoke. Keep for 10 years. Diam Cork 5. — 2 days ago
