La Larme d'Or Chablis Chardonnay 2022

Warm yellow color. Smells like jasmine flowers and honey. Tastes of honeydew, lemon, and minerals. — 6 months ago

Circa J.L. Chave Sélection Saint-Joseph Roussanne 2018

This is still very pretty, lots of nice texture, nuance, impeccable balance. Confectionary, fennel seed and floral nose, mineral, tangy, licorice root palate. Still some freshness but it may be time to drink up. What a steal this was. — 7 months ago

Circa J.L. Chave Sélection Saint-Joseph Marsanne Roussanne

This 2022 is next level. Have had several Rhône whites recently and this is a standard bearer. So focused. About editing and restraint with subtle hints of this and that without hitting you over the with anything. Dominated by Rousanne which explains its elegance and subtlety. Has a honeyed fresh slightly poached apricot and apple combo with whiffs of baking spices. Great Lacey quartz structure. Beguiling.. perfect with scallops, acorn squash and rice pilaf — 16 days ago

Expression Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Champagne Chardonnay

Fantastic! Great fine mousse. First impression: big yummy yeast and not much fruit. Med+ acidity. After opening up for 45 minutes, less pronounced (but still significant) yeast, apple, pear, bell pepper, honey and cinnamon. Complex and very nice. — 6 months ago
