Champagne Mouzon Leroux & Fils

L'ascendant Solera Verzy grand Cru Champagne

Oct 2022 disgorgement

Mix of 14/16 vintage with 2017.

Yeasty and good vibe right out of the bottle

As it sits and settles - medium body with a little punch. Less citrus and more stone fruit. Pear flavor.

Really enjoyed this and will search for more as this was last bottle

Yang Yang ! Toasted Bitter almonds, hazelnuts, caramels, bitter dark chocolate, cedar but also mineral salty and flowers. Border line brandy that will please bourbons and whiskies drinkers alike…. Complex and fascinating ! Served chill and make sure no one bothers you for a while … A treat for serious #gozones … If you happen to smoke premium cigars, this is next level! — 5 years ago

San Emilio PX Solera Reserva Sherry Pedro Ximénez 1896

NV | I am not thát fond about PX but this Lustau blew me away. Luscious smell, multi layered with dates and currants, very vibrant and elegant. It might be that the combination with an Italian chocolate cake, raspberries and berries contributed to my high appreciation. Happiness ☺️. Fantastic effort, very balanced — 5 years ago

Château de Saint-Cosme

Little James Basket Press Jeune Solera Grenache

Interesting “Vin de France” that is the brainchild of the great Louis Barruol. Primarily made with Grenache that is a blending of several vintages, all vinified in concrete tanks. This one was bottled in 2019. Deep ruby/garnet/purple color. Aromas of ripe red berry fruit, dried purple flowers and dusty earth. Flavors of strawberries, red and black cherries, blackberries, red and black licorice and baking spices. Touch of black pepper spice on the medium-plus and slightly earthy/musty/peaty finish. Medium-plus acidity. Light and well integrated tannins. Pleasant texture and purity. Interesting concept that has led to an interesting wine. Excellent QPR. — 9 months ago

Alvear

Fino Capataz Solera de la Casa Montilla-Moriles Pedro Ximénez

Very old fino by a historic Montilla producer - with about 12 years of aging under flor in the solera system. Intense nose. Full-bodied, rounder than most Finos from Jerez (made with Pedro Ximenez, instead of Palomino) — 4 years ago

Solera Brut 1er Cru Champagne Blend

A good champagne. Drank kind of… young? Balanced but not graceful, hefty but a little too eager. All of the flavor was BOOM, right up front, and it was more green apple rind than anything. Good - maybe not my thing. — 5 years ago

Substance Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Champagne Chardonnay

Disg. ‘19- Smoky and complex with typical solera style aromas and oxidation, but there is also an alluring freshness to this disgorgment. Very much needed a decant, but shows so much character, singularity and an expansive palate with a persistent finish. Love love love. — 5 years ago

Château de Saint-Cosme

Little James Basket Press Vin de Pays d'Oc Grenache 2019

Rated on day 2: keeps well after being sealed tight and placed in the fridge (love a corkscrew cap). Smells like leather, fresh eucalyptus leaves and raspberry gushers. A jammy medium-bodied red; pairs well with fresh snowfall. Grenache takes on wintery savory, spiced notes thanks to a blend of old/new vintages (Solera method). Lingering molasses and dried basil flavors after final sips. Definitely tried to pour out the last few drops to get another taste ! 😍 — 6 years ago
