Domaine Benoit Ente

"Golden Jubilee" Bourgogne Chardonnay 2014

This is Benoît Ente, mineral driven, lots of secundairy tones yet refreshing! You could say the acidity is a bit on top but I really liked it. Will buy again!

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

Straight shooting Napa Cabernet. Fruit forward and good acidity. Medium finish. Pleasant. Eric Benoît. I drank this decanted over three days. Definitely recommend giving lots of airtime to settle down before drinking. — 4 years ago

Naturessence Champagne Blend

Powerful and dense, nicely juxtaposed by the racy chalkiness and snap of its acidity. Some post-disgorgement age has brought great balance and complexity. There’s ripe/baked apple, asian pear, orange peel, white strawberry, fresh dough, chalk, nutmeg, salt, some honey. Can clearly sense the 50/50 CH/PN and their respective terroirs. Kudos for purity given its low-to-no SO2 upbringing, which I find particularly hard to execute in Champagne. 5/2016 disgorgement. — 5 years ago

Actually a village level chassange-Montrachet. From the bottles purchased on the bike tour. I could smell this all day long. The candy and the floral. Seems like it was in the $20 range. For the money doesn’t get better — 4 years ago

My 1st time with this producer. This was all about finesse & intensity with a very fine mousse showing notes of lemon citrus, mineral with a hint of green apple. Lovely stuff! — 5 years ago

Blanchot Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay 2011

Elegant beyond words! Crushed seashells and Stoney minerality lead the way to an extremely well balanced and classy Chablis from an incredible vineyard that just pairs with everything at the dinner table. Love 11' Chablis. Love this producer. Must buy more! — 9 years ago
