A spectacular ratafia. Gently sweet with beautiful richness and wonderful depth without any heat from the fine de Bourgogne. — 5 years ago

An odd sparkler to say the least. While the disgorgement date is not on the bottle, from Terry Thiese notes this spent somewhere around 5 years on the lees. The appearance is dark, closer in color to a young Burgundy than any sparkling Rose. The nose shows notes of deep earth, black cherries, and yeast. The plate is full-bodied with big, bracing acidity and soft, creamy bubbles. Flavors of macerated cherries and plums lead to dark, earthy flavors, baking spice, touches of oak, and a little funky brioche. The finish shows some dusty tannins along with lingering bright acidity along with lingering tiny bubbles. A very cool food friendly bottle of bubbles. — 7 years ago

On the Lawn at Tanglewood this evening with the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Our guest conductor Herbert Blomstedt is leading an all MOZART program tonight (Piano Concerto No. 17 in G) with the incredibly talented Emanuel (Manny!) Ax on piano and then concluding with MOZART (Symphony No. 41, Jupiter).

Nose is a little tight on this right now, but it is incredibly stoney, like a walk through a stone masons lot and a neighbor two properties down recently mowed the lawn.
The palate is opening, good minerality, light acidity, tropical fruit, yet showing restraint like no other CA Sauvignon Blanc I've ever experienced. Interesting stuff, likely will finish this bottle tomorrow (with updated notes) so that we can see what extended air time reveals... — 7 years ago

AP 23. A blend of two parcels, Pio and Herbert. A pure beam of energy, almost dry tasting as the acidity is absolutely scintillating. Lots of subtleties, this one is icy, pure and crystalline. An absolute joy. Truly classic Saar riesling and always the first bottle emptied. — 6 years ago

Solid premier cru champagne from Bouzy. Quite middle of the stylistic road - as in, not overly precise and linear or yeasty and round. Nice. — 6 years ago

Very solid pinot for the price - and the extra third of a bottle doesn't hurt — 6 years ago
