Great intensity but tight and not giving much at the moment. Focused, lemony, mineral, steel. Structured and incredibly concentrated on the palate. Tremendous balance and energy. Hold and wait in excitement! — 7 years ago

My first Demi-Sev 1938 from a pristine bottle. No significant RS left in the structure but you could see how important the sugar was to carry on until today incredible aromatics. Still very concentrated and powerful. The second vintage of Gaston Huet at the end of the estate making the wines. — 9 years ago

Is this an ex Christie's bottle? I number of years ago there was a winery-direct auction in the U.K., and many of the bottles made their way to the US and then I sold them again for various consignors. Glad to hear they're holding up!

9.3

Shimmering magenta. Expressive red/blue fruit and licorice aromas show excellent clarity and pick up mineral and exotic spice flourishes as the wine opens up. Broad and fleshy on entry, offers concentrated boysenberry, bitter cherry and floral pastille flavors that tighten up and become sweeter with air. The blue floral note carries strongly through an impressively long, focused finish that's shaped by smooth, harmonious tannins. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, October 2019) — 6 years ago

Schieferkopf Sélection Parcellaire Lieu-dit Buehl Alsace Riesling 2011

A blend of riesling, gewurz and sylvaner. The wine offered intense floral aromas when out-of-the-fridge cold, then gained complexity in the glass with ripe fruit, fennel and star anise notes. Hints of minerality also, but not the 'petrole' type. Haute couture. In magnum. — 10 years ago

Le Haut-Lieu Moelleux Vouvray Chenin Blanc 1990

9.7

1990: This bottle given to me by Gaston Huet when I visited him in 1996, so no importation or pregnancy warning stickers to obscure the contents. Amber color revealing the level of botrytis in this vintage, since the wine was absolutely fresh. Creme bruleé nose. Silky mouthfeel, with explosions of fruit, ranging from baked apples, hints of vanilla, quince jelly and raisins. Long, long pleasing finish which is a fitting tribute to one of the true heroes of winemaking. Sublime. — 10 years ago

Moussé Fils

Anecdote Lieu Dit Les "Varosses" Champagne Chardonnay

Moussé is known for its Pinot Meunier yet this is 100% Chardonnay from a vineyard that was not well suited for Meunier due to the particularly deep soil. I found this to be a delight with lemon-lime citrus of tremendous precision. Minerals like it was San Pellegrino and a long finish. More chiseled than rich. So refreshing.
