Really nice Grenache blend. Moderate fruit and tannins. Would buy another — 12 days ago

So easy to write off this formidable, yet tender giant because it needs at least three days’ aeration when young. And this one didn’t hit its stride until day 6, now exhibiting lemon zest, citrus oil, fleur de sel, subtle and persistent Alpine minerals and a palpable, electric energy. For me, this is the greatest Sylvaner in the world, along with Keller’s Feuervogel. — 5 years ago

A powerhouse combination of pear, fleur de sel, lees, grated spices and a “cold steel” quality that seems to be the annual signature of this cuvée. Bone dry and surgically clean; no petrol...just pure, incisive transparency. One of the greatest entry-level Alsace Rieslings you can imagine. I’ve probably underrated this, if anything. — 6 years ago

Pure délice Grecque!

Smokey on the nose and all over, charred meat and blackberry compote, but all fully resolved. We quietly sucked down 2 bottles over dessert and cheese but hell if this wasn’t the best match for fleur-de-sel laced dark chocolate I ever had. Fully resolved, delicious and unlikely to get better. — 4 years ago

Au Flocon de Sel. Un premier vin, blanc, pour accompagner les services de fera, ecrevisses, champignons et brochet. Tout simplement délicieux. On y denote des fruits blancs et tropicaux et un peu de miel. On retrouve un petit côté minéral, de pierres. La bouche est ronde, grasse. C’est crémeux et frais à la fois. Le bois se fait encore sentir. Longueur excellente. — 5 years ago

2017. Fleur de sel, sea spray. Almost unctuous, which is always the tell on this wine. Attractive green olive/dirty martini quality. Such an underrated grower. #brunori #verdicchiodeicastellidijesi — 6 years ago

Paired with home made Focaccia with homegrown garden Cherry yellow and red tomatoes. Superb 2016 Clos from Droin that seems to he coming together now after my first bottles that were not up to the standard of that good domaine. Lemon curd, sea salt, some white orchard fruit, great minerality and salinity coupled with depth, richness, and this nice tension, making it balanced, vibrant with a savoury lengthy finish. 92-93

Superbe Clos de Droin, il y a un an j’en avais ouvert une qui n'était pas en place, celle-ci est excellente. Citron, fruits blancs, sel de mer, superbe salinité mais aussi profondeur et richesse qui accompagne cette acidité appuyée, bel équilibre et superbe finale longue et savoureuse. 92-93 — 4 years ago

The nose is ocean air, fleur du sel, and granite dust. On first pour, starts out with some savory roasted parsnip and turnip. Builds weight with air time; lemon curd, citrus zest, and Costa Rican “Cas” fruit (which is a hybrid green guava, pear, and citrus). Finishes with more cracked granite. Love it! — 6 years ago
