Quite light lemon yellow , very persistent , fine bubbles . Quite taut and strict on the nose , chalk dust , white flowers , honey suckle and elderflower , lemon peel , touch oyster shell and a touch of fresh baked bread . On the palate really good volume and density , lively acidity . Lots of citrus with good mineral , oyster shell notes . Long and mineral , saline, tinged finish , hint of toasty brioche on the end . This is really quite young and shows tighter and more mineral than the first bottle we had . Would leave this a few years and will have a long life , better in 10 -15 years and last well a further 10 or so . Great potential — 12 days ago

My favorite Roilette bottling. Old vine; 90+. This is proof that Cru Beaujolais can age. Darker and heavier than your typical Gamay. Darker fruit, mix of red and black fruit. More structure and a little oak, medium tannins. Becoming harder and harder to source. Have a vertical from 2013 to 2020. — 19 days ago

Medium plum-toned ruby in color, with aromas of strawberry, tart red cherry, banana, raspberry, and cranberry. Dry with medium-plus acidity and a medium body. Bright, balanced, and refreshing.

Of all the unoaked Chardonnays I’ve had, this is probably my least favorite. Too much minerality in this wine for me. — 12 days ago

Stunning creation from Clos du Marquis is a testament to the magnificent 2005 vintage. The wine offers an impeccable harmony of rich blackcurrant and plum aromas, intertwined with elegant notes of cedar, tobacco, and subtle spices. Its structured tannins and vibrant acidity create a perfectly balanced palate, while the long, sophisticated finish leaves a memorable impression. A truly remarkable expression of the Saint-Julien terroir that continues to evolve beautifully with time. — 17 days ago

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

#AgedWineTuesday

Pretty color of peach with a dark golden hue.

Fresh on the nose with limes, raspberries, strawberries, lemons, green apples, herbs, yeast, minerals, spices and light earth.

Medium bodied with medium plus acidity and tiny bubbles.

Dry on the palate with peaches, apricots, apples, raspberries, cherries, spices, herbs, yeast, light brioche, minerals and white pepper.

Long finish with limes and light bitter herbs.

This 18 year old Rosé Champagne is absolutely fantastic. Drinking very fresh right now, elegant and rich.

Showing nice complexity with a nice mouthfeel. Well balanced and very entertaining.

Needed 30 minutes to open up and show its complexity, but good right out of the bottle too.

Wine Enthusiasts 95 points. Wine Advocate 96 points.

Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years.

Easy drinking and good by itself or with food. Delicious stuff.

A blend of 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay. Aged for 6 years on the lees, with 20% in oak barrels.

12% alcohol by volume.

Pale lemon in color.

Medium in body with medium plus acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing limes, lemons, green apples, light wood, earth, herbs and minerals.

Nice finish with limes and almonds.

This is a very young Sauvignon Blanc from the Loire Valley in France.

I had a few vintages of this wine and it is definitely better with age. Needs 5 years in the bottle to mature properly, but starting to drink nicely now.

This 9 year old Sauvignon Blanc drinks very fresh and young. Elegant and easy drinking.

Good right out of the bottle, and better after 45 minutes of airtime.

Good by itself or with food.

13% alcohol by volume.
