Opened this for a special occasion and frankly, it was a disappointment when first popped. It had energy for sure, but I just found it a little too “sweet” and the oxidative notes too distracting, with some obvious caramel and nuts. Thankfully, it just needed air to shine and by golly, did it shine brightly. The nose somehow blossomed into a perfume of pears, oranges, flowers, spices, flint, and digestives. On the palate, the “sweetness” seemed to melt into a citrus liqueur kind of character and texture. Very mineral-driven, with a saline backbone and stony finish. It does feel quite different from the classic Les Beguines, but rightfully so. The variety, grower, and vineyard’s all different. The Prevost vinous-ity does translate over though. Nevertheless, loved the wine. — 8 months ago
Our third vintage at Fairchild. Not my favorite of them as a bit less fruity — 3 months ago
Love LC19. It’s perfect today flaunting deep, powerful layers of ripe orchard fruit with smoky minerals, toasted hazelnuts and exotic spices. The palate is structured and concentrated with a satiny texture and vibrant energy that give way to a long saline and mineral laced finale. Pinot Meunier from the master, it just can’t be matched and this is the best release since LC13 IMO. I’ve heard LC19 imports to the west coast specifically are often mousy, but luckily I’ve never experienced that here on the east coast. — 6 months ago

Absolutely worth the hype. One of the best grower roses. Ripe strawberry, wild herbs, Swiss chard. — 2 months ago
