Esprit Blanc de Tablas Roussanne Blend 2009

A tasting of six aged white Rhônes, including 20 and 35-year-old Hermitages vs a Chapoutier Saint-Joseph Blanc (Les Granits) a 19-year-old Esprit from Tablas Creek, and a Calera Mount Harlan Viognier. This 2009 Chapoutier was the winner for me, and the group. — 2 months ago

Hints of mint and herbs on the nose, cherry and licorice and garrigue on the tongue. A bit of alcohol burn mid palate. Forward tannins but well integrated. Nice peppery finish. — 3 months ago

Lieux Dits Aÿ La Cote Faron Extra Brut Grand Cru Champagne Blend

While my favorite BdN remains Bout du Clos, this was one of the first “ah ha” Selosse wines for me some years ago in understanding the style. The south facing La Cote Faron is particularly “Selossien” and therefore particularly singular, with its oxidative complexity, textural richness and generous sun kissed ripe fruit expression. Like all Selosse wines, it’s multi-layered and super aromatic for Champagne, and the palate shows tremendous volume and intensity with a powerful, full bodied, satiny texture and a long, vibrant, mineral finish 😋 — 5 months ago

Yes, always find this one to be at the most-oxidative end of the Selosee offerings.
