Blanc de Blancs, no dose, l'Eclapart. Wine geek trifecta. Nose is a symphony, wet earth, mineral, salty, tree bark? Fascinating aromas. Palate is dry, forceful, yeasty and tangy. Long and intense. Concentrated and intense.

Day 2 Update - Yeasty somewhat broad and mineral nose. Some brioche as well. Nice. Palate is razor sharp with terrific precision and minerality. Really lovey delineation of flavors. Great. Delicate and complex yet forcefully dry. Incredible. — 10 years ago

Absolute bliss. Razor sharp acidity of crisp golden apples. A bright & brilliant example of the vintage. The mold on the cork was a red flag but this Riesling is Devine! — 11 years ago

Razor sharp. Lime and minerals and extremely aromatic. Chuggable and food friendly. One of two decent German Rieslings available in wine stores in Iceland, unfortunately. Damn good! — 11 years ago

Thanks for joining me for steak & claret @Gregory Condes! This bottle was on the lean side, but I prefer them thinner rather than fatter. The aromatics were fully developed, generous and pure Margaux; earthy, cassis like perfume! Best of all it cut the ribeyes like a razor! — 11 years ago

Beautiful organic offering. This 2007 grows and grows in the glass! Wet cocoa powder, black olive, and blackest cherry notes run along a smooth topography of smooth black stones with an interlaced manzanilla sherry mesh.water-like mouthfeel thickens as if from becoming awash inside your mouth. Refined tannins against a razor smooth gessoed backdrop with black olive that drops a graphic line around the texture, pushing it upwards toward the thrilling olive and artichoke in finest olive oil ending, which laser-lines into a still tight finish. — 11 years ago
