Vilmart & Cie

Grand Cellier 1er Cru Brut Champagne Blend

Chablis-like restraint in a very good way. Nose is tense, citrus and lots of limestone, an almost reductive floral nose and a touch of silky softness to balance. Acidity is high but not crazy, strange considering the house style is supposedly to inhibit all malo. Great stuff, I want to drink lots of it — 2 years ago

Almost flawless and absolutely at its peak. The oak and the malo conversion is perfectly executed. — 3 years ago

Domaine Serene

Evenstad Reserve Dundee Hills Chardonnay 2015

Medium gold in the glass. Reticent nose, round malo richness on the palate. Ripe pear and sweet red apple notes.., just enough acid to keep in interesting. Riper that I usually expect from Oregon at 14.2... this is no Chablis! Wine works well with food , but more reminiscent of Sonoma than Willamette. — 4 years ago

Forman

Napa Valley Chardonnay 2006

Has evolved splendidly—rich and slightly unctuous, lemon curd, wet stones, judicious toasty hazelnut and vanilla, but the blocked-malo style gives it plenty of zip — 2 years ago
