Special Club, 100% Meunier. So clean, so fresh. Rich and delicious. — 6 days ago

Château Ferrande

Graves Red Bordeaux Blend 2013

A cor não é tão escura, tem tons que começam a ser mais marrons. Tem densidade e lagrimas lentas. O aroma lembra couro camurça, não tem álcool destacado, banana passa, e também madeira. Na boca o vinho chama atenção, tem taninos fortes, e bastante rastro. Tem características bem secas, parece uma bebida forte, mas o álcool parece bem misturado ao demias sabores, a madeira parece bem diferente das madeiras dos chilenos. — 3 years ago

'Special Club' Les Fortes de Terres Brut 2015

Well they’ve done it again. Who is they? Why Cédric Moussé and the Club Trésors de Champagne of course. Another superstar bottle from them.

A muted pale lemon color with an effusive stream of tiny bubbles. Aromas of honeyed almonds, peaches, and crushed herbs. Fresh cherries and apricots sparkle here. Toasty brioche bread and chalky minerality show after some time with green apples being quite dominant after receiving some air.

The Master of Meunier and here it shows. 100% Pinot Meunier from the village of Cuisles located in the Vallee de la Marne. This Special Club offering is from one plot of land, giving it its name, Les Fortes Terres. Disgorged on 10/21/19 with a dosage of 1 g/l, this is refreshingly stark with beautifully racy acidity.

Full bodied and bold on palate, the complexity and purity of the Meunier shines through. Butterscotch and apples start the party off with more cherries and citrus playing along. A nice long, dry finish. Vibrant and captivating. Moussé and Special Club champagnes never disappoint.

Château La Grande Maye

Côtes de Castillon Red Bordeaux Blend 1995

Held amazingly for its age. Still has a lot of res fruit character. Was great for a short sip fell apart fast. Well past it’s past prime. Delicate and oxidized. Just what the pharmacist ordered. — 3 years ago
