Beautiful saline fossil-like minerality and bracing acidity pairing well with shellfish and cheese. — 12 years ago
Each time I sip one of the phenomenal Löwenstein holy wines, first words to pop up in mind - straight from the heart pumping through the veins and slipped out of mouth - are: complexity, primordial, hope, illumination, flinty, silex, slate, fossil, rocks, sublimeness... http://hlweb.de/ — 10 years ago
The Laherte Frères Champagne Blanc de Blancs Brut Nature is intense and precise, with bracing acidity and striking mineral overtones. Straw-colored, with a fine mousse, this zero dosage sparkler opens with notes of lemon zest, dried honey, pastry and white flowers. The palate is terroir-driven, chalky, calcareous, fossil-laden soils from the Mesozoic era come to the fore with energy and focus, punctuated by overtones of white grapefruit, lemon zest and spice.

Yes. Poured from a magnum, this wine is intensely earthy on the palate and reflects its fossil-rich, mineralic soil at the base of a volcano. Slightly gritty, having the characteristic muskiness one might expect from a Mourvèdre heavy wine with tons of beautiful Grenache fruit. Ahhh-ha, hush that fuss. — 9 years ago
