Pineapple cake, flint, pollen, poached pear, blossoms, marzipan, ginger. Zippy acid counteracts a rather vinous and weighty mouthfeel. Love the notes the Chenin brings with some age on it.

Maybe my favorite bubbles outside Champagne, made in the classic Methode Champenoise. A thick nose of flinty smoke, almond, yeasty bread, and some gingerbread. The palate adds ripe lemon and lime, with clearly present acidity and limestone mineral backbone. My 3rd taste of this in the last year. #sparkling#cheninblanc#vouvray

Balance and precision on display, this is chiseled sparkling Chenin made in the traditional method. Fresh lime, lemon, and pear with smokey minerality and a touch of biscuit on the finish. Incredible value and can go toe-to-toe with the best value Champagnes and crush most big production NV.

Foreau 2007 Réserve Brut Vouvray greets the nose with flint and steel, limes leaves and lemon curd and tastes at every corner of one's head of saline seashells, taut skinned orchard fruit, lemon peels of no bitter pith and rises to a crescendo of dry candied lemon rinds if the sweetness of sugar we're but a ghost or memory and leaves us in a wake of oyster liqueur. This glows angelic as if back lit from within -at once calming and invigorating. All the better from #Riedel Veritas Champagne stems -an elegant lightweight wine glass that accentuates Méthode Traditionnelle better than all the crystal I've tried and a stem which looks, feels and behaves the sophisticate amplifier such wines deserve -that we deserve.
