100% Chardonnay. 40 years old. 0 dosage. Too young. Needs more time in the bottle. Disgorged 29/11/2023. Highly allocated. And squirreled away by the Michelin ⭐️ ‘s folks. The importer is a friend so i get first dips. Less convincing than previous vintages. Hint of Kirsch - eau de vie, — a month ago

Excellent. Lots of Michelin Star Restaurants in California have this producer listed. Always sold out. And lucky me I know the importer very well/a friend. My go to growers Champagne. One time I snatched up the only six pack that made it to the US. No formal notes - next time. — a year ago

An absolutely stunning color in the glass. Dark red with vivacious perlage. The nose is rather robust with just a bit of apple immediately. Blood oranges and strawberries abound. Just a touch of sugared raspberry with plenty of floral aromas.
Racy and sexy as it can be, this thrills and excites. Pure Pinot Noir with a low dosage and oh so nice. Purity and clarity for days, this sits well above average rosés. Just the right amount of vinosity and verve throughout.
The palate is elegant and titillating with the customary red berries and ripeness. Wet stones and brioche bread. Herbs on the long finish. Truly, a lovely champagne. — 21 days ago
