The 2017 Chablis Montmains 1er Cru is clean, racy and super precise. Chalk, white flowers, mint and white pepper all confer brightness to this energetic, brisk taut Chablis. In the glass, the Montmains is so attractive and translucent. Orchard fruit and sweet floral notes linger on the close. Readers who want to see the elegance of 2017 will find plenty of that here.

Bright, juicy. An orchard of just-underripe peaches, nectarines. Hints of strawberry. Stone foundation. Pleasing acidity. Balanced, interesting, a crowd pleaser. — 7 years ago

A gin for those who don't like gin. It has a crisp clean taste and is very refreshing. Great with ginger-ale or in a French 75. — 11 years ago

Nice clean and prcise nose of orchard fruit, apple and peach. A very delicious and balanced wine with minerality, some richness in terms of texture and with this white peach and precise clean fruit. Decent length too, very nice. 90-91

Nez agréable et fin de fruits blancs et jaunes. Un vin équilibré, minéral mais aussi avec une belle richesse et précision avec du beau fruit avec un peu de pêches blanches en bouche, très bien. 90-91 — 5 years ago

The 2009 'Cristal' is a completely stunning Champagne which impresses with its polish, complexity, weight and silky mousse. The brightness is wonderful with intense lemon zest and kumquat aromatics that all mingle in the glass. The soft mousse and bright effervescence really impresses. The freshness of the wine also shows beautifully on the mid-palate, displaying not only good weight but intense orchard fruits that mingle with the wet stone, and high-toned citrus zest accents. I love the silky mouthfeel that adds to the wonderful experience. This is settling in after some time after release. Drink 2019-2035- 95 — 6 years ago

(raised in stainless steel tanks and made with no malo) Limpid straw-yellow. Assertive, mineral-accented orchard fruit, melon and fennel aromas are sharpened by hints of ginger and lemon zest. Intense pear skin, Meyer lemon and violet pastille flavors show a suave blend of richness and delicacy thanks to a spine of juicy acidity. Closes minerally, taut and impressively long, leaving a powerful floral note behind. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, February 2018) — 7 years ago

My favorite cider. A sweeter cider but well balanced and slightly spicy for an overall great flavor profile. Their Saskatoon cider is great if you are looking for something a little sweeter and more unusual. — 10 years ago

As always, Krug is for me, the perfect illustration of power and fineness. The common thread amongst all of the bottles I have been fortunate to taste is a sense of luxury. In a wine, luxury is not an easy to define, but most certainly Krug has it. A generous nose of brioche, apple galette, quince and nutmeg. The mousse is quite fine, gracefully leading into full texture, and an acid spine that pierces through layers of crème and orchard fruit. And the finish—as long and languid as any great story arc. — 11 years ago

There’s so much here it’s hard to put in words! Magical is a good descriptor... Notes range from orchard fruit, white flowers, hay, kettle corn, with a striking minerality always coming through. — 7 years ago

9.2

Awesome to revisit this with some bottle age on it. Uncoiled, more presence on the nose and weight on the palate without sacrificing the precision I remember it having. Those nervy edges are starting to unravel. Carmalized apple/pear, golden orchard fruit and blossom, tart sweet citrus, spice laden minerality, almost salty on the finish. Pleasant surprise — 8 years ago

Really great Sauvignon Blanc! One if the top five Sauvignon Blancs I have ever tasted. I had a great time wine tasting at Orchard Station Winery! Great guy owns this winery - if you go there, check out his classic Corvette! — 12 years ago
