I’ve been drinking this slowly over a week and a half. At this point it tastes like a fortified or mulled wine. It’s deep, inky like ox blood, burnt copper color around the rim. The smell is mulled red fruit, raspberry, strawberry, dry earth, purple flowers, sweet lavender. Very delicate tannins remain with an acidity that tickles the edges of the tongue and fades quickly. What you’re left with is something that resembles a young fortified wine with beautiful red fruit, earth, a floral element that lingers, and a slight hint of mushroom. It’s quite lovely and unexpected. — 6 months ago
Everybody loves Sebastien Dampt.
You just can’t own enough of his wines.
Nose: a beautiful perfume. Ocean air. Lemon flower.
Palate: so clean. Mountain stream infused with elegant lemon. Sweet lemon
One of the more restrained Lechets. Classic. Very well made.

This is a great wine. It’s not one of the best wines on earth. But it’s one of my favorites. Especially in 21. 95 on open. Hits 96 an hour in. The aromatics improve and take it over the top.
Nose: sweet minerals. Sweet fresh ocean breeze. Some lemon flower. White flowers. My wife says white lilies.
Palate: sweet fruit. Magnificent so delicious. A kiss of richness. Balanced. Juicy. Bright. Gorgeous internal aromatics. Still that chablisien feel.

Had it at Newport seafood restaurant in San Gabriel (BYOB - $20 corking fee).
Medium to light tannins. Earthy. Medium bodied with hints of dirt and gravel. Not too sweet. Medium finish. Easy to drink. Would buy again — 12 days ago
