Sylvain Dussort

Meursault Chardonnay 2011

Richly robed in gold, not unlike Gustav Klimt's portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer, the Sylvain Dussort
Meursault 2011 has both contrast and curves. On the nose, aromas of lush, bruised pear, golden apples, almond puff pastry, and honey. And on the palate, a lovely interplay of silken, glycerol-drenched orchard fruit layered into moderate acidity and discreet minerality. It strikes all the right notes, and the oak is quite restrained.

Suenen

À Cramant Brut Champagne Rosé Blend

The Suenen Champagne ÀCramant Brut Rosé is a blend of 93% Chardonnay and 7% Pinot Noir. Orangey-salmon in the glass, the nose is as delicate and subtle as the perlage, with dewy cherry blossoms, wild strawberries and mineral notes. Clean, exact and precise, everything about this stunning Cramant communicates elegant balance and a portrait of the soil. Raspberry sorbet, orange zest, and rhubarb gracefully intertwine with crushed limestone and fossilized shells, sea foam and salinity. Disgorged 1.14.14 — 11 years ago

So pale, flinty, focused and sharp; one might think of the Loire. Nope, good old Oz Riesling to set you right. Just perfect as an aperitif, while cooking and only 11%. — 12 years ago
