15 person Champagne tasting with friends.

We inserted what we all feeling is more or less the gold standard of n/v Rose’ to pair with duck and goat cheese on crostinis.

Oyster Bay

Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2022

This is a $11 bottle and it’s a very nice smooth white wine. Had it with some garlic shrimp and a perfect pair. I’d say B+ as not a lot of excitement but it’s a nice even flavor from start to finish. — 2 days ago

Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin

La Grande Dame Brut Champagne Blend 1985

Very tasty. A touch oxidized in the nose but with air the citrus flavors really blossomed. A winner, plus love the old style bottle. — 8 days ago

Arianna Occhipinti

SP68 Bianco Terre Siciliane Albanello Muscat of Alexandria 2022

Exotic. Dried tangerine peel, flowers and herbs, lemon zest and a tingle of spiced honey. Absolutely takes off with cuisine, had Sicilian shrimp and pasta with it. Really showed its depth and expansive qualities. — 4 days ago

Domaine François Raveneau

Butteaux Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 2013

A typical tale of Raveneau. Best after 3 hours in the decanter. I really do love Raveneau’s 13’s. It’s an early drinking vintage (by Raveneau standards) while you wait for the surrounding ones. There’s immense richness and depth of waxy yellow fruit and stony minerals on the palate with créme fraîche, spices and a touch of botrytis influenced saffron in its layered aromatics. Superb cut and racy lemony acids provide a seamless balance to its power and richness. No surprise, beautiful wine. — 16 days ago

Château d'Yquem

Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 1961

I don’t drink a lot of dessert wines anymore but this was not sweet at all showing a roasted nut, honey character all wound together with bracing acidity — 2 days ago

Carneros Chardonnay 2022

Someone else said “perfectly representative of the stereotype” and they were right … great big gobs of butter and oak. 89. — 16 days ago
