Window is closing for this wine. Cork crumbled into a million pieces and made me worry for the wine but no worries thankfully…Phenomenal. Simply exquisite. Needed 30-40 minutes to open up but it was a complex balanced joy. Coffee, brush and spice. Dark fruit. Rich but perfectly in synch and every drop was delicious. Tremendous vintage and I look forward to the next one. — 18 days ago
After a rough stretch of vintages (14,15,16) for this producer, 2017 has it returned to form showcasing the unique Burgundian style to Côte-Rôtie that had it gain such a following early on. It wafts its stemmy spice aromatics with beef jerky, violets and and black pepper. It shows weightless intensity on the palate with a spine of minerality giving it lift and focus. Cordeloux is a tremendous success in 2017. — a month ago
Solid champagne producer vintage in, vintage out. This is an EB.

Used the Durand on the cork - soaked to the edge. Decanted for 2 hours.
This wine had some gaminess. Smooth. Fruit was a bit wild and overpowered by the savory flavors.
Paired well with the chicken skewers and onions. Needed complex flavors in the food to pair well.
Good but quite a bit below the Beaucastel — 6 days ago
White peach, tangerine, citrus acidity. Always good. — 6 days ago

Crisp, citrusy and with great acidity and freshness. This is one of the best and finest blanc de blancs from an independent grower we know: Rodolphe Peters does truly great champagne. — 13 days ago
