February 2024 disgorgement, stunning mousse, tiny-berry red-fruit intensity, huge acidity, extraordinary persistence, repeatedly opening and closing, with brief moments where everything becomes spectacularly coherent. Beautiful now, but clearly not ready. 6-7 more years. — 4 days ago

Big ol’ Pinot… if by name only

Heavy body….. deep ruby color.
Musty, earthy nose
Powerful Friit - maybe black cherry
A touch earth / bitter lingers. A touch of oak.
Zin / Cab vibes
Nice glass of wine…

Very light and crispy with notes of white peach and hints of draw berry. The most perfect day time rose. Cheers. — 3 years ago

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of an hour. The 1996 Belle Epoque pours a deep straw color with a persistent mousse. On the nose, the wine is vinous with generous white peaches, raspberries, white tree flower, marzipan and minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long. The 1996 balance of acid and ripeness is so special. This gained energy with air. Drink now through 2036. Disgorged May of 2004. — 4 days ago

More acidic tension than the 21’ vintage I can remember. Love the hint of bitter grapefruit skin note. Highly enjoyable on a hot summer day. — a month ago

2014 vintage. From the (great) pre-Treasury period, this is a classic Haut-Médoc, well-situated between Giscours and Cantemerle. Solid colour, with little evolution for the vintage. Cassis, cedar, violets and spices. — a month ago
