Great tasting tonight. An excellent start with a fantastic bottle of bubbles. Lots of spice from the oak barrels during fermentation. Baking spice and citrus notes come thru nicely. Big finish of tangerine and baking spices. Very elegant. — 7 years ago
Alpine goodness. Herbal with a fair amount of sweet. Not too thick though. — 8 years ago
Just what I was looking for in a rose at that price point. It could be a little drier but it was lovely on a warm French Alps day — 9 years ago

A glorious earthy cocoa dusting the most lively and impish fruit. Pineau't enough in a bottle. — 7 years ago
Pretty tasty stuff.. this is my 3rd Jurancon dessert wine in 3 days and they're growing on me. Very peachy with some funk on the nose. Palate is cool because it's not too sweet, but has a nice balancing acidity at the end. Peach, pineapple rind, and a bit of nuttiness. That's fun. — 8 years ago

1995 vintage. Disgorged in 2000. Long term stored at chateau. Fruit is playing second fiddle to toasty notes, and roasted almonds. Almost a touch maderized in flavor in a very positive way. Golden color with very controlled bead. — 9 years ago
Love it. Our first taste of a Beaujolais. — 10 years ago
Acid seemed to be more in play. I was prefer the edge and zip this carried across the palate than previous experience which emphasized a more vinous quality to it. Lovely transition. — 7 years ago
Beautifully aged Champagne. Inspiring to want to lay down some current release Champers for decades. Like a beautiful Montrachet with richness and purity. — 7 years ago
Dark purple in the glass, slightly clinging color. Full nose of baked plums and graphite (some Merlot in the mix?). Firm tannins introduce a palate of dark fruit, toasted pie crust, and graphite. Long dusty finish with tannins present throughout. A traditional, Old World Cahors, not to be confused with their more fruit forward Vin de France Malbec. Demands rich Mediterranean or similar cuisine. — 7 years ago
