Wowza! This is one interesting and satisfying Riesling. Almost vendage tardive-ish in the nose, which has crushed rock, burnt honey, sweet smoke, apricot, ripe apple, and sweet floral notes. Rich and slightly sweet in the mouth, the flavors are intense, but so is the acidity. Mouthwatering and long. A great Alsace Riesling. — 5 years ago
Perfection Gewurz. A lot of vendage tardives qualities here which make me wonder how old the vines are?! Amazing body, perfect perfumes and a solid finish. Notes of honeysuckle, vanilla white peach, ripe pineapple, mango lychee and a hint of citrus. — 4 years ago

Amazing and weird! Nutty and fruity, with a hint of menthol on the palate! Something is a bit chemical to me. — 6 years ago
Vendage Tardive 100% Roussanne.
A savory late harvest wine, best paired with savory vs. sweet food.
California earthy soil profile, golden grass, tea-like tannin, Chrysanthemum bitter, candle wax. Clean Acidity, not notably sweet.
Very good late harvest savory wine, not dessert sweet.

Lovely vendage tardive Gewurztraminer to finish last night, nicely sweet but not cloying, spicy and floral, great acidity, needs aging. — 6 years ago

Extra brut. Assemblage base vendage 2017. Disgorged December 2022. Dosage 2g/L. So well balanced. Color is gold. Apricots, some baked apple, minerals galore, a bit of brightness like lime, biscuit. Finish is full with more stone fruit, almond biscotti, key lime. Just invites me back for more. Outstanding. — a year ago
