@Delectable Wine : This is the Delouvin Meunier perpetuel. I didn’t see it in the database.

Annual birthday WWC hosting. As normal, 1 sparkler, 3 whites, 4 reds, 1 dessert, all presented blind.

I knew nothing about this producer when I purchased, but I feel like Pinot meunièr can become magical when given age/healthy amounts of reserve wine. This is from a 1992-2017 solera. 100% meunièr. 5g/l dosage.

Faint salmon-tinge color to this. Aromatics aren’t overly expressive, but there is some honey roasted cashews and spiced pear. On the palate, this is absolutely delicious…loads of fruit (as meunièr normally shows) with golden and red raspberries, golden delicious apple, more spiced pear, nutty and baking spices. Creamy and layered, it has a profile of “freshly aged”, with the reserve wines coming in to play at the finish, broadening out the wine. No need to hold these. I should find more. — 16 days ago

From sometime in the 1980s....a little past it's prime but definitely an experience, and still drinkable! — 10 years ago

Toasty cherries, yellow peaches and Meyer lemon. A mineral spine comes through in the end. — 3 years ago

Great P. Meunier, good acidity that suggests we should wait a while to drink it again — 3 years ago
