Can't go wrong with this. Appealing nose of smoke, dark fruit, chocolate, plum cake, and mocha. Robust wine with robust alcohol levels. Darker chocolate notes over a cherry backbone. Well-integrated acids and smooth tannins keep this wine from being too flabby. Unfiltered, which shows in each pour. Great wine. — 11 days ago

Sour cherry, red currant, hay. A very young classic burgundy Pinot Noir nose. The palate is young too but very well done. Strong acid drive, nice cherry blossoming all along, crisp mouthfeel with a nice energy, gentle tannins in mid palate and a long fruity finish. I have had worse 1er cru. It was served with a roasted chicken. Good pairing — 20 days ago
Introduced to this Alsatian Sparkker 🍾 by my Brother-in-law , excellent QPR, great Family & Winemakers. This is the Brut Reserve 100% Pinot Blanc; “Blanc De Blancs” as described by their back label. $18-25 depends on your source. Stood up in Blind Tasting to French Sparklers twice & three times the price. Cheers 🍾🥂👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 — 2 months ago

Le nez n’est pas très expressif après 1hr en carafe mais on dénote subtilement des notes de fruits noirs et de réglisse.
En bouche c’est la réglisse qui attaque en premier, une touche de prune confite des herbes (thym,origan) mais chaque gorge a une certaine chauffe. Le vin fait bien ses 14.5% d’alcool mais n’a pas une lourdeur désagréable. Parfait pour un journée froide et enneigée comme aujourd’hui avec un bon plat mijoté! — 20 days ago

Fruity and light with a minor mineral finish. Scrumptious. — 4 days ago
