"Cuvee delle vigne niche." 100% Carricante. Mount Etna erupted four days ago! Color of straw. Tiniest bit of yeast on the nose. Tons of minerality. Golden apple. Holy wow is this good juice. — 10 years ago
I love this cuvee. I was worried that 09 was too forward of a vintage for this wine, but that was silly. On the nose: vanilla cream, sweet lemon chiffon, airy wet stone...fantastically lifted aromatically. On the palate, lovely acidty, baked apple, lemon custard, caramel, soft mousse, a touch of oxidative copper, and a very clean, finish. Absolutely lovely champagne. — 5 years ago

Le Bateau, his top cuvee. Great balance and mouthfeel. By the way, I learned the winemaker Adrien had his first born just last weekend. Congratulations! — 3 years ago
