Can’t go wrong with a classic aged Red Burg with roasted duck. Great nose forest floor autumn leaves earthy balanced lovely profile and very long finish. Yum. — 8 days ago

Vintage 2013 | incredible how Muscadet gains in complexity and finesse after aging. This bottle is made of 60 years old vines and was ‘sur lie’ for 36 months on 50 procent acacia and 50 procent oak barrels. Such a surprise. Tasted in 2018, now 4 years later: creamy minerality in a velvet taste. Paired with beetroot salad as first dish and codd fillet with cauliflower. It makes my evening. Gonna buy more. — a year ago

Showing just as beautifully as the bottle I had a few months ago, popped and poured without decant and its aromatics immediately jump from the glass. It’s deep, intense and structured but at the same time it is so elegant and finessed. I remember thinking with the last bottle, and again here, that there is a “wildness” to this Monopole that makes it so intriguing. Really a lovely bottle that’s in a perfect place. Always a treat drinking CLB. — 3 years ago

2022 vintage. A blend of 90% Savagnin (aka Traminer) and 10% Chardonnay from the " Grandes Vignes" vineyard ( Eric Thill also produces a 100% Chardonnay from this plot). Indigenous yeasts. Aged 10 months in stainless steel. Very low in alcohol (12,5%, whereas the 2018 was 15%!). Nose needs some air, decanting recommended. Clean, fresh, with subtle spices enhancing the fruit. Very good length too. Paired with black Camargue rice, fennel, and duck. This wine works really well with fennel ( not the easiest vegetable to combine with wine). Another great effort from this excellent estate. — 2 months ago

A lovely pairing with salmon, this wine falls heavily on the lemony and earthy notes. Sharp, lasts. — 3 years ago

2022 vintage. So light, and so much flavour. Typical very light transparent red colour. Flowers, red berries, and delicate spices. Subtle, elegant with crisp redcurrant,sour cherry and cranberry fruit, a light tannic bite and good length. Delicious and delicate. Abv. 11,5 %. — a year ago

Orange-ruby, translucent.
Red cherry, raspberry, baking spice, cola on nose.
Graceful tangy acidity with light astringency. A bit over the hill, but grateful to have tasted:) — 4 years ago
