What a delicious bottle. Super expressive light yellow fruits- pear, kiwi, pawpaw, banana, also with a beguiling spiciness, almost a curry spice, and slight nuttiness reminiscent of clean sous voile wine. Psycho accessibility, perfectly integrated dosage. Long mineral finish.

May 26th, 2022Yup, a crush-able BdB for a warm (almost) Summer afternoon. Please see prior notes. 👍

Jun 20th, 2021Nose has italian bread, green apple slice, under-ripe lime wedge and cold ginger root.
Palate has lime slice, grapefruit zest with a lightly sweet limestone note on the finish; Great acidity.
This just came home with many more of the same; I'm excited for warmer weather as I think this will be a truly crush-able BdB on hot summer days!
Blended with three GC plots in Avize, Cramant & Choiully and 30% reserve wine from 1985+

Bready yeasty and very refined nose. Lovely and clean. Palate is sleekly and starkly mineral with gorgeous purity and freshness and lovely fruit. Very well made and so sleek. Very fine mousse and lovely yeasty and super mineral finish. This is very complex and sappy. Just a great knock back bottle of bubbles.

Nose is stingingly mineral. Some brioche. Some green apple.
Palate has some very good clean fruit. Nice yeast. Mineral but not super mineral. Very fresh. Almost like the best clean green apple ever. Like an heirloom green apple.
This is a very well made wine for what it is. For under $50 it’s a good deal. Over that it’s not complex enough to justify the price.
I dont know why I’m having this with sausage and peppers. It’s been that kind of day.
Bought from fass selections.
