Dark violet. Spice- and mineral-accented black and blue fruit aromas show excellent definition and pick up olive, smoky bacon and candied violet notes with air. Sappy and concentrated but energetic as well, offering palate-staining blackberry, bitter cherry and boysenberry flavors that become spicier as the wine opens up. Melds power and finesse with a sure hand and finishes impressively long and sweet, with chewy tannins building steadily. All whole clusters and 10% new oak, a combination of foudres and demi-muids.

Robe typique jaune clair, ce vin charme en premier lieu avec ses beaux arômes d'agrumes, de citron et de pamplemousse rose, avec un soupçon de chèvrefeuille; la macération pelliculaire et le bâtonnage ont n'ont seulement donné à ce vin du volume grâce à une texture légèrement grasse, mais également de la matière et de la longueur; la bouche est donc savoureuse et fraîche sans être trop mordante. Une belle longueur sur l'apricot ou l'amande. — 5 years ago

Michelin Wine Club - Joël Robouchon Miami — 3 years ago
Another great Champagne selection from one of my favorite shops, MCF Rare Wine. 70% Pinot Noir, 20% Chardonnay, 10% Pinot Meunier. Only 1670 cases per year. Lively acid, bubbles, texture and nuanced apple and citrus fruit under the dryness. For a very good price too. Beats many known producers with inflated price tags. — 3 years ago

Really good. A bit tight. Prob needs decanting. I’m too lazy. Dark fruit with that meatiness one hopes for. 2022. — 5 months ago
