Jul 19th, 2018Disgorged 2014. Funky and beautiful, this was hard a hard follow after Chemin. The oak is more apparent, but I'm not picking favorites. Love this entirely

Aug 31st, 2017Light toasty notes on the nose with hints of spices. Lightly oxidized in the Selosse style which just leaves you with a finish that goes on for ages and ages.... one of the best bottles I’ve had. #happynewyear
Good chance this is my wine of the year despite it being the first week of Jan.

1 person found it helpfulJan 4th, 2019NV. Pinot Noir only, zero dosage. Looks like a light rose. Hazelnut, bruised pear, no obvious leesy character. Full concentration. On palate, very high acidity - not integrated and overwhelms the fruit for me. There's a lot of concentration but I find everything overwhelmed by the acidity. Salty. No obvious red fruit either. Some chalky notes on finish. An acquired taste. Not for me.

Aug 26th, 2016Very interesting and delicious showing how far one can push and still have freshness even with a fairly oxidative style. Cool.
