Sharp, mouth puckering acidity, lemon, green apple, some red fruit. Love this wine. 2010. At Perle, amazing Pasadena restaurant. — 3 years ago

Great tension, focus and precision with a sharp acid spine and intense minerality. But it lacks complexity and finishes abruptly. Still too young. Drink ‘11 even though not the best vintage while you wait for ‘12 and ‘13. — 4 years ago

Spicy cedar, cigar box on the nose. Sharp bright cherries with an iron and tar base. Smooth integrated tannins with a grapefruit pith tail and a long finish. Very nice. — 4 years ago

A tad riper than expected with more yellow fruits on the foreground. Further very muscadet with a lactic touch and good minerality. Acids are there but not razory sharp. — 4 years ago

My favorite of Lamy’s wines. Fresh, focused and with sharp acidity, ripe citrus fruits, crushed oyster shells, white flowers and hints of salty sea spray with ample mid-palate concentration. Finishes with very good length and precision. — 4 years ago

Legacy edition. Fine and sharp at the front, great bright fruit. A steeliness with a slightly creamy edge. Still young but pretty amazing material and nice stuff now. — 5 years ago

LC 12. So sharp and angular, citrus, high acidity, and bright red fruit - May have even guessed Rosé if I were blindfolded. I loved it but it may not be for everyone. — 4 years ago

Orange blossom, must, oxidation? Salinity?

Finally a night or weekend we weren’t working on our rental, rushing to get some Christmas shopping done or getting ready to entertain holiday guests. It’s a night for us to chill out. That’s a good thing. It is also our final night to enjoy all our Christmas candlelights before we pack up tomorrow. 😔

We didn’t even enjoy any of one our very favorite N/V Rosé Champagnes over the holidays.

Tastes really good tonight. Showing shades of carbonated Dreamsicle or Creamsicle. However, you remember them growing up. Rich, ripe, candied & lean; black cherries, strawberries, cherries and summertime leaner watermelon. Baguette, grey volcanics, sea spray and finely powdered, razor sharp chalkiness with candied, pink rose pedals. Perfect, crisp, lively acidity and long, rich, well polished & balanced finish with persistence.

Hope you all have had a great start to 2020! — 5 years ago
