Vintage 2021 | Enjoyed over two days, first day with tenderloin Cantonese style with mango, second day with caserecce with oyster mushrooms, garlic, pepper and creamsauce. I served the wine from the fridge, flint minerals in smell, raspberry minerals in taste. Lovely Cabernet Franc. — 8 months ago

2022/2/13 with tempura. LOT03 41 07. Dosage of 2g/l. This was a great bottle of maturing blanc de blancs - there was hazelnut and pistachio, salted caramel, tarte citron, and funky, earthy minerality. There was the sweet, crystalline fruit (without actually being sweet) and plenty of balancing acidity. I figure this could hold further but it’s beautiful right now. — 3 years ago

How can wine be this good? Transcendent is too weak a word to describe the glory that is this wine. Achingly beautiful. This is a “why we drink wine” type of wine. Needed an hour. So elegant and just the right amount of opulence. Magic is not the word but it’s the best I got. Thanks, Chris L. — 8 months ago
