Just enough bacon grease and dark flowers blooming off this to let you know you're getting very near to the prime juice: the roasted slopes. I have a thing for declassified juice and this stuff hits me perfect on a night of smoking and way too much talking with people who barely care where this came from. As I expected she delivered just enough earth in my glass for me to contemplate without getting too deep. She's a sexy artist...a very sexy artist...intelligent and reserved...extremely tasty and well taken care of. There is a lot here for relatively very little cost. Gotta love these super star turned IGP status girls. 💸 — 11 years ago
2012. Old vines. Applying for GC status. 85 year old vines. Stunning complexity. Modern vinification. Stanky fruit. Meaty, gamey. Juicy, ripe. Deep intense. — 12 years ago

Wild herbal nose, some whole bunch/carbonic/stemmy feel to it. Great fruit, balanced tannins and acidity, lots of fun. — 9 years ago
Nice wine. Enjoyed the lighter body and milder red fruit of this wine. A whiff of leather and tobacco on nose and some earth on the palate. Wouldn't really say any floral quality to this Pinot. If you anthropomorphize this wine, I can see describing her as "elegant" and "soft" and "smooth". But did not achieve "sexy" or "seductive" status for me. Second date? Sure. Why not? — 10 years ago
Damn this girl is so easy and curvy and beautiful! She is definitely a pole dancer if I ever met one. Blanc de blancs?! Okay, yes obviously a blonde playboy girl with big tits and a smooth busty ass. Buttery meringue coming off with all the right amounts of mineral, fruit, and are you sure you didn't slip some pinot in there? Definitely worthy of grand cru status even if she has some makeup snuck in for good measure. No way I couldn't enjoy this babe in the sack. Not a single thing about this wouldn't turn my head right into another sip. All in balance too. I'm good on getting that for girl a while. 😜 — 11 years ago

With one sniff the aroma creeps in delicately stinging the nose, daring you to sip. Unexpected, the experience of cherry coke fermented marshmallow on the tongue is pure unadultered bliss. It's obvious why the culty turned mainstream status wine is a mainstay under lady skirts - no one wants to share. The last moment on cloud nine it brings you down with its pruned, earthy shackles. Truly a representation of wine lover's prison. — 10 years ago
Better than many CdP's. Part of why Rasteau was elevated to Cru status. A very fine wine. — 10 years ago
