Popped and poured; enjoyed as we prepped for dinner. I’m not sure what’s left to say about “La Pucelle” that hasn’t already been said, but I’ll try. As far as Blanc de Noirs made from Pinot Noir are concerned, this has got to be the most chiseled version I’ve ever come across. It’s like a laser beam of tiny bubbles, minerals and acid. Incredible balance of cut and power. Brilliant. Disgorged January of 2024. — 11 days ago

Deep and feral. Blood and granite all over the nose, along with cracked black peppercorns and dry aged beef. Pretty large-framed for a Saint Joe on the palate. Savory, iron and granite. Still some tannin to shed. I’d thought this would be further along than it is, but it’s got promises to keep and miles to go before it sleeps. — 4 months ago

A thrilling expression of Champagne’s forgotten varieties. Electric acidity, astonishing purity and breathtaking finesse. Dense yet feather-light, with extraordinary sapidity, epic length and an unbelievably refined mousse. Completely distinctive. — a month ago

A 50/50 blend of Pinot Noir and (Pinot) Meunier; mostly sourced from the 2011 vintage (40%) with the balance from 2010 and 2009.

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of a few hours. The C. de Pinots NV pours a straw color with a persistent mousse. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of ripe apple, toasted brioche, split almonds and lemon bar and spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+. The DNA is there and showing a slightly more oxidative style. Drink now. Disgorged July 2016. — 4 months ago

Paired perfectly with NY Strip, garlic mashed potato, steamed broccoli lovingly/brilliantly ( if I do say so myself) cooked at home. Came by this wine at Substrate’s 2nd gathering of the wine club. Brilliant Cab Franc. Pepper both white and green. Dark cherry. Balanced tannin. This is one to seek out. from — a year ago

A bit too direct and rocky for me. Definitely a style. It was bracing and the acid high. It did have an interesting nose of terroir — 6 years ago

Words almost fail here. Monumentally fine and utterly complete, combining substance with incredible elegance and purity. Everything is perfectly integrated. One of those Champagnes that simply feels inevitable from first sip to last. — a month ago

2024/7/12-14. I’ve really missed drinking Jobard’s wines. Opening with toasty lemon tart, this reveals a wide, spicy bouquet and a remarkably savory, saline mineral palate. — 2 years ago

Paella night! I know we’re supposed to do Rioja, but Bierzo is on the table tonight. Cracked pepper & blackberry nose. Full bodied, more dark berries and smoky notes cross the mid palate. Structured, but very approachable and enjoyable right now. — 6 years ago
