Superb crisp, grapefruit,, peach, mineralogy — 7 years ago
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
My first Demi-Sev 1938 from a pristine bottle. No significant RS left in the structure but you could see how important the sugar was to carry on until today incredible aromatics. Still very concentrated and powerful. The second vintage of Gaston Huet at the end of the estate making the wines. — 8 years ago

Orange, elderflower, green apple, saline, minerality. Extremely chuggable young summer wine. — 5 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.

Strawberry and green peppercorn, quaffable and fun Beaujolais Cru — 7 years ago
Yeasty, brioche, clean, rich, red fruits. Awesome! — 7 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
Lovely honey notes. If you've found this bottle, splurge and pair with lobster or shellfish. — 10 years ago
Tonight opening one of my favorite and best Gigondas wine - a beautiful expression on freshness, finesse and elegance of old Grenache on sandy soil - a very limited production at around 3000 bottles #winelover 😘🙏🏻 what a treat ! — 10 years ago
Very smooth finish. A real drinkable wine — 10 years ago
Excellent !!! — 12 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

Deep red cherry with earthy finish. Classic Loire/cab franc. Excellent on opening. — 8 years ago
This is good. More delicate than the "regular", but also more haunting. — 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
Great wine — 10 years ago
This Pinot Noir has a great deep flavor! Definitely worth trying for a unique Pinot. — 10 years ago
