NV Lovely rosé sparkling from Gamay and Grolleau. Not easy at all, this has nothing to do with middle of the road sparkling. Festive strawberry. It is bone dry and very suitable for gastronomic pairings. I drank it with smoked salmon, celery with creamcheese and salami fuet as appetizers. — 10 days ago

Stunning zero dosage sparkling wine from the Loire Valley — this rivals most champagnes.
Pear, bruised apple, lemon, grapefruit, almond, oyster shells. A bit of yeastiness.
Perfectly balanced. — 6 months ago

Dry and balanced with nice, fine tannins—cherry with hints of tobacco and eucalyptus—very drinkable and food friendly! — 5 years ago

Deep, Rich, and elegant. The wine actually feels more viscous than normal, and it’s just heavily perfumed and flavored and thick in your mouth. It absolutely feels like chewing on a handful of fresh blue and red fruit mixed together. Perfume of violet and Queen Anne roses, as it faded over time it actually became a much more elegant and approachable wine. Absolutely delicious.  — 2 months ago

Drinking crazy good now. Rich, layered, early season crisp pear, white peach, floral. This is better than the last bottle a year ago, and is pushing 9.4 — 6 months ago

2016 vintage. Need to order some more of this-pronto. Obviously too young but firing on nearly all cylinders at this point. The go-to BDX for those that want to drop coin on BDX but aren't familiar with BDX. For those of us that are familiar with the area/wines, this producer and vintage are delivering overtime. Voluptuous and sexy mixed with just enough down to earth(iness). Drinking phenomenally now. Too youthful to accurately speculate on the end game/potential of this vintage now. Much of the baby fat is gone yet there are a few strands left. Going back to the 1988 vintage, this is in my top three Cos offerings- like now, man... 4.29.23 — 2 years ago
