'Special Club' Les Fortes de Terres Brut 2015

Well they’ve done it again. Who is they? Why Cédric Moussé and the Club Trésors de Champagne of course. Another superstar bottle from them.

A muted pale lemon color with an effusive stream of tiny bubbles. Aromas of honeyed almonds, peaches, and crushed herbs. Fresh cherries and apricots sparkle here. Toasty brioche bread and chalky minerality show after some time with green apples being quite dominant after receiving some air.

The Master of Meunier and here it shows. 100% Pinot Meunier from the village of Cuisles located in the Vallee de la Marne. This Special Club offering is from one plot of land, giving it its name, Les Fortes Terres. Disgorged on 10/21/19 with a dosage of 1 g/l, this is refreshingly stark with beautifully racy acidity.

Full bodied and bold on palate, the complexity and purity of the Meunier shines through. Butterscotch and apples start the party off with more cherries and citrus playing along. A nice long, dry finish. Vibrant and captivating. Moussé and Special Club champagnes never disappoint.

Light, sweet and refreshing. Beautiful notes of ruby red grapefruit, strawberries, and res plum. Supple tannins make for an elegant, medium grip. Yum! — 7 years ago

Les Feusselottes Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Pinot Noir 1985

Enjoyed a single glass at Ambassade de Bourgogne. The 1985 “Les Feusselottes” pours a pale garnet color with a translucent core; medium viscosity with no staining of the tears and some sediment. On the nose, the wine is vinous with notes of desiccated strawberry, dried res flowers, mushrooms, sous bois, licorice, dried herbs and gentle warm spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannin (resolved) and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+. A fully mature Les Feusselottes that is showing its age, but showing well. Drink now. — 7 months ago

Domaine du Vissoux / Pierre-Marie Chermette

Poncié Fleurie Gamay 2018

So delightful. Wry approachable , but it has the tannins and bones to age well. Get 2, so you can enjoy one now, and another in 10 years. Worked well with oven-roasted salmon, sautéed spinach and steamed sweet potatoes and a tahini lime butter. A lively Mediterranean hillside in the nose, lots of res currant on the approach, and a little pepper on the finish. It has that fresh Beaujolais personality but with decanting and an hour it shows character and depth. — 5 years ago

Seriously... for the funk-a-file. Bright juicy res candied fruit, acid driven, and funky as all get out. They claim to have always strived for a Loire style with Loire varietals, and this is as close as it gets.. (if not better) wow — 7 years ago

Sixpoint Brewery

DDH Hi-Res Triple IPA

Heavy hitter here! Lemon Madelines covered in dark caramel, cola, orange zest, aged rum, fine tobacco, vanilla, baked blood of tubers, roasted chestnuts. The palate is aggressive as a sleeping beast caught unawares. An awkward silence, impending clash, metallic taste. Ethiopian coffee-candy, burnt cinnamon roll, honey-maple babies, brown sugar, licorice extract ash, African dream tea, Fernet branca tonic. Lingering dark aftertastes. Heavy and potent as the surprised eyes of the roused beast. Lunge. — 7 years ago
