It was served a bit too cold, but as it has warmed up, it has opened up and it's quite nice. A touch of earthiness, but also a bit of brightness. — 9 years ago

Really a Grand Vin de Bordeaux. You know that a flower was named after this wine? The Rose Demoiselles de Larrivet Haut Brion. How cool is that? — 7 years ago

Really balanced white Burgundy. Highly acidic and mineral, but slightly tropical and ripe. Delicious. — 8 years ago

On the palate; green apple, lemon, lime, overripe pineapple, green dry herbs, flint/sulfur, honeysuckle, Jasmine & yellow lilies, grainy minerals, good chalkiness, saline, nice round acidity and round, rich, long finish. Photos of; Domaine Guy Amoit et Fils, their barrel cellar and Guy & Thierry Amiot and a picturesque shot in Chassagne-Montrachet. Producer notes and history...Domaine Amiot was founded in Chassagne-Montrachet in 1920 by Arsene Amiot when he acquired select parcels of vines or “climats” in Chassagne including Vergers, Caillerets, Clos St. Jean and in what is today Le Montrachet. Under Arsene, Domaine Amiot became one of the first Domaines in Burgundy to bottle their own production. In the 1930’s, the domaine passed to Aresene’s son, Pierre, who continued to add top sites such as Champsgains, Macherelles, Maltroie and their tiny parcel in Puligny, Les Demoiselles. Pierre’s son, Guy, took the reins in 1985 and solidified the reputation of the Domaine for producing wines of exceptional quality from an impressive array of top vineyard sites. Guy’s son Thierry took over the winemaking in 2003 and continues the tradition of expressing the unique character of each vineyard site while constantly seeking to improve the quality of the wines. Les Macherelles is located on the farest side of Chassagne-Montrachet close to Puligny-Montrachet. — 8 years ago

🎅 Santa says “Two more sleeps boys & girls 😊 I hope you’ve all been good! I have so I’m going to pop these bubbles 😉”

📝 I say this has aged quick in the baby bottle and very oxidative reminiscent of a Bollinger with 10 years age - a good new find 👍

Lovely stuff. Wedged between a chevalier demoiselles and a Corton Charlemagne I was concerned, and this shows very differently but very well. Light, bright, zesty and delicious with a whiff of rock pool, grapefruit and a fresh clarity. Doesn't have the length or intensity of the grand cru's, but has great individuality and held its own. Excellent. — 9 years ago

This is quite a bit better than the last bottle...toast, lemon tart, good backbone, nice mousse. Solid bottle, but doesn't have the complexity and depth of the big boys. — 9 years ago
