From the always lovely lieu-dit Meix Chavaux. There is a ripe opulence that is seamlessly balanced by signature Roulot kinetic energy and drive. Ripe orchard fruit, lemon verbena, flinty minerals, saline and matchstick reduction that blows off with a sufficient decant. There is great cut and delineation even in the ripe vintage. But we should expect nothing less from the great Jean Marc Roulot. Finishes long and intense strutting its mineral backbone and impressive focus. — 4 years ago

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

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. — 9 years ago

Rich, precise and with superb tension and energetic acidity. White flowers, green apple, citrus blossoms and lemon zest. Finishes with excellent length, focus and with a stony minerality. The Lieu-Dit master,

A powerhouse! This is classic with its black fruit, herbs de Provence, and anise seed flavors. Barnyard funk emerges with air along with a streak of minerality. Let this sleep for another 3-5 years for better integration. — 9 years ago

Tons of fruit notes...fall fruits, stone fruits and clementines rolled into a rich wine that keeps its balance due to mineral and acidity on the edges. This one is special — 9 years ago

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.

Needs time to open. It is too stiff and oaky in the beginning but softens with time. Another bottle of wine that would complement food like veal chop or something — 7 years ago

Dégorgé: Oct/15, Dosage: 4g/l, It took about an a half to show itself, when opened the intensity/character & layers really came alive, beautifully complex & powerful, great to see. — 8 years ago

We loved this. Great flavors, not too dry or oakey or anything. Great blend and goes wonderfully with pasta. My husband absolutely loved it. We normally like more strong and forward wines and this was was just a good medium wine. Seems like it would go with anything. — 9 years ago
