Cellier De La Comtesse

Château de Montfaucon

Comtesse Madeleine de Montfaucon Côtes du Rhône Clairette 2017

This 2017 Lirac is 99% Clairette (and 1% Grenache Blanc) from an old head-pruned vineyard with 125-year-old vines which always produces such an unique white wine, some of the previous vintages have seemed to develop rather quickly, but this well-balanced beauty is still going strong at age 9, long, lingering finish, Rudi nailed this vintage, lovely!! — 24 days ago

Château de Montfaucon

Comtesse Madeleine Blanc Côtes du Rhône Lirac White Rhone Blend 2022

This Lirac blanc is 40% Marsanne, 35% Clairette, 20% Grenache Blanc, and 5% Picpoul — the Marsanne really shows out, the Grenache Blanc adds some fatness, while the Picpoul adds some nice bracing acidity, this has long been one of my favorite southern Rhone whites, this really shows the richness and power of the 2022 vintage, lovely!! — 4 months ago

Le Cellier Brondien

Les Abymes Jacquère 2014

JKT
9.0

Different vineyard but still 100% Jacquere, and this one is nicely on the cusp but not yet going down. Bro hints of the putative initial mountain freshness and minerals, together with a lithe expression of age. — a month ago

Vilmart & Cie

Coeur de Cuvée Grand Cellier Champagne Blend

Disgorged 2022. Tons of bruised green apple. Little brioche. Ends a little shorter than expected for the price point. — 3 months ago

Cellier des Princes

Le Blason du Prince Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2023

La Voile. Drank by the glass. Really good CNdP. Lots of flavors, deep red berries, herbs on the midpalate. With or without food. Long finish. Some tannins, but smooth. — 4 months ago
