A bit too direct and rocky for me. Definitely a style. It was bracing and the acid high. It did have an interesting nose of terroir — 5 years ago
Tried this at a champagne tasting in San Francisco. Very well done, lots of delicious notes. Pour it in a red wine glass to open it up and soften the bubbles. — 6 years ago

A citrus nose for this white of white. An excellent aromatic flavor with notes of lemons, brioche bread and citrus. Excellent — 7 years ago

Killer nose of creamy red fruits, palate is deep with minerals, mild acidity and ripe red fruits, all in a white wine. So lovely, oak aging does wonders for this grape.
Last time we had this bottle was in the cellar of C-L, no finer hosts. 100% Pinot Meunièr (2014 fruit), so technically a Blanc de Noirs. This bottle was sealed on 31 May 2015 and bottle number 199 of 1220 produced.
Relaxing by a fire in the chimenea tonight, our first frost was finally this morning. Nice and cool tonight, the warmth of the flames is satisfying. — 6 years ago
Typical zin fruit and spice, but a bit lighter on the tannins. Pairs well with grilled meats. — 7 years ago

This is evolving nicely. Tart cherries, rock like flavor, forest, a bit of spice, flowers. Really lingers on the palate. Still has a lot of time in the bottle. — 5 years ago
Really enjoyed the aroma of this one; vacillated between a sweet yeasty smell to almost fungi/cheese smell. Definitely put in white wine glass or could be too bitter. — 6 years ago
Lovely depth of flavors with great balance — 7 years ago

Clean, very fresh and refreshing. Hint of apples on both nose and palate. Great with raw bar. — 4 years ago
