Mas De La Dame

Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin

La Grande Dame Brut Champagne Blend 1990

Quite young looking lemon , just a hint of gold . very fine bubbles , that dissipate quiet quickly in a white wine glass . Lots of roasted nuts , toasted bread , caramel , and a oyster shell , caramelised lemon peel , saffron , lemongrass and a hint of curry . On the palate this has more of the caramel notes , with saffron , some lemon, mineral a quite tight , slightly astringent acidity and mineral finish. Not overly intense but quite good length , with mineral , oyster shell , toasty , brioche finish . This is fully mature and is at peak in magnum , drink now and over the next 5 -10 years .

2005 bu en 2025. Un magnifique cabso qui a de beaux tannins un peu plus soyeux. Wow! — a month ago

Organic Les Baux-de-Provence Grenache Blend 2020

A favorite for decades, I just love this wine. Perfumey and fragrant, with deep floral notes, turned earth, sappy dark berries, incense, spice. On the palate it’s less unctuous than the nose suggests, and more linear. A tad reserved initially, but then the deep concentration and length kick in. Very savory flavors. A vibrancy echoes on the finish. One of the best renditions I can remember. — 14 days ago

@Tom Casagrande, I haven’t seen this label for years, but fond memories from the 1990s of drinking it multiple times. I cannot remember who the importer was/is?

Love this place. Such a great visit there. Super unpretentious. And WAY smaller than you’d think given its presence in NYC. And love the wine.

La Dame de Montrose Saint-Estèphe Red Bordeaux Blend 2020

Really nice. Well balanced; medium all around--except for the alcohol which runs hot. Beets and other vegetal notes provide an interesting nose.

Mas de Boislauzon

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2006

Just an incredible 19 year old bottle with plenty of life left but drinking perfect tonight. Inky and dark purple. Raspberries and cherries, but with lots of dark fruit, spices, caramel, and gamey scents that develop more deeply when stirred and sipped. Elegant balance of tannins and fruit. Medium+ body. 5 min or longer finish. Robust but not overwhelming. — 2 months ago
