Chers Amis Eola-Amity Hills Chardonnay 2022

Lemon lime custard, makes it clear it’s a chard. Love the label art. Started a little too cold but as it warmed the texture was very creamy. Minerality presence is felt, freshness to this I appreciate. — a month ago

Mes Favorites Vieilles Vignes Mareuil Sur Ay Champagne Blend

Hebrart: Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of an hour. No formal notes. As the name suggests, this is a selection of Jean-Paul’s favorite sites. In this case, old vine sélection massale from: Faubourg d’Enfer, Pruches, Haut Varille, Croix Blanche, Maladrie, Beauregard, Ramonette, Bisson St-Loup, Côtes, and Sente des demoiselles. All 1er cru sites, obviously and roughly 3/4 Pinot Noir with the balance Chardonnay. It’s delicious. In the Hebrart style, this is fresh with loads of bright raspberry fruit, citrus and minerals along with great acid and good bubbles. Drink now through 2037. Disgorged April of 2021 and based off the 2017 vintage. — 4 months ago

Kanzler

Russian River Valley Pinot Noir 2019

A blend from (57%) Estate fruit, and a sizable portion (18%) Mes Filles Vineyard. Medium Ruby color, purple edges, with aromas of ripe fruits, floral and complex spice. On the palate concentrated flavors of raspberry, plum and currants with pepper, tea, herbs, cinnamon and oak, soft tannins on well balanced structure. Full body, long finish, ending with spice, ripe fruit and warm woody tones. Very Nice! — 2 years ago

Chassagne-Montrachet Mes Vieilles Vignes Pinot Noir 2020

Blackberry jam, cassis, soil, earthenware.

Balanced and earthy. A medley of berries. Earthy. Full of memories of other Pinot. Spearmint.

Some oak. Toasty. Maybe slight vanilla or tobacco.

This is nice, curious how it may open up
