Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of several hours. The 2008 Special Club pours a straw color with a persistent mousse. On the nose, the wine is developing and somewhat shy but there’s citrus, white peach, brioche and a rather fascinating smell that reminded me of a built-up roof. On the palate, the wine is dry with high acid. Confirming the notes from the nose however here, it’s much richer and expansive. The finish is long. Young? Probably. Drink now through 2038. No disgorgement data. — 3 months ago

Pale salmon in color; grapefruit, strawberries, and flowers on the nose; high acidity; a hint of tannins; tastes like grapefruit rind and strawberries. Nellie and I really like it. — 5 months ago

Another beautiful champagne from the Launois family. A pale old gold color with nice perlage and intensity. Freshly baked bread and green apple aromas for days. Melons and white peaches with herbs for good measure. There’s an innate sense of lemon zest in the air that’s just magnificent.

Pure Grand Cru Chardonnay from Mesnil-sur-Oger. Four years of aging on lees gives this a resplendent and stately nature. Nice acidity and a superb mouthfeel, especially on the second day. Apples and chalk on the palate alongside vibrant citrus fruits. I struggle to think of a better value in Champagne than this. Stock up. — 7 months ago

Pale lemon with stone and citrus fruit aromas. On the palate crisp apple with lemons honey and flinty notes. This medium-body wine was smooth with a wet stone character with overall good balance. The wine finishes with pronounced mineral notes on a medium+ ending. Very Nice! — 8 months ago

Dark golden in color with a brownish hue.

Light nose and very dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing lemons, apples, spices, light over ripen citrus fruits, earth, light wood, herbs, light vegetables and white pepper.

Short finish with limes and bitter herbs.

This 28 year old is a little past its prime, but still drinkable and interesting.

I had higher expectations, but at this age, it really depends on the individual bottle. That said, I still enjoyed it.

Needed 30 minutes to open up properly.

Good by itself as a sipping wine.

100% Chardonnay grapes were aged in French oak barrels for 12 months.

13.5% alcohol by volume.

90 points.

$250. — 7 months ago

2020 vintage. Premier cru and Monopole vineyard. Medium-heavy body. Some aged/golden flavors already present. Not the cheapest Beaune but this is banging and matches plenty of Meursault, Chassagne or Puligny in strict terms of dollars for the delivery. Can’t say I’m the biggest fan of large Burg houses but they occasionally surprise you. This is one of those said occasions. Not to be missed for the concentration and presentation. 8.7.24. — 9 months ago

Cherry dress, charming nose of the Burgundian PN between strawberry, cherry, mushroom, cloves; discreet breeding tip between vanilla and tobacco. In the mouth it is lively, with a mineral marker that imposes itself. Semi-Light body that comforts the breeding tannins. Chanson lays the foundations of Burgundy in what is most essential, magnifying the PN. Easy to drink, elegant. 2019 at its peak.

Robe cerise, nez charmant des pinots-noirs bourguignons entre fraise, cerise, champignon, girofle, pointe discrète d’élevage entre vanille et tabac. En bouche c’est vif, avec un marqueur minéral qui s’impose de lui-même. Corps demi-Léger confortant les tanins d’élevage. Chanson pose les bases du Bourgogne dans ce qu’il y’a de plus essentiel, magnifiant le Pinot-Noir. Facile à boire, élégant. — 2 years ago
