Aperitive bubble for this year's new year's eve party. Only nosing and dipping my lips. Oxidative nose, green apple. Dry palate with drive. Palate cleanser. Superb! — 6 months ago

This domaine so frequently overdelivers and this is a great example. So much of the joy of good rosé champagne yet utterly it’s own thing; intense red berry, minerals and marzipan nose, tart cherries and watermelon sour gummy candy palate. The Loire terroir comes through in the form of a fresher, slightly greener frame. Lovely hints of pastry dough on the nose. — 5 years ago
Red berries, herbs and lemon peel. — 6 years ago
Perfume and apricot nose. Green apple, lemon rind, acid for days. — 8 years ago
Throttled acidity but very strong, structured, clean sparkles. Went quickly and very well following Indian food — 4 months ago
Nice breadth, structure, and richness from this oak aged Loire Valley Chenin Blanc. — 8 years ago
This white wine is five years old now and is showing some wonderful signs of its age. The fruitiness of its youth is becoming more complex and savory. Aromas of wet sidewalk, citrus and salinity come forward on the nose, while the palate is driven by minerals and earth. Muscadet wines are universally thought to be good pairings with oysters, shellfish or any sort of seafood, and this is certainly no exception. — 4 years ago
Cherry, Black berries. Tannic but easy. Perfect with turnip tops pasta! — 4 years ago
Pushing the rich end of the Chenin spectrum with aromas of peaches, apricots, vanilla and coconut custard. The palate is mildly oaky with some sweetness. Chewy. Opulent.
But this also has the quality of hot stones and bitter almond on the finish. Promising but needs more time to develop and settle into its richness. Not a lot of freshness to carry it now. These bottlings seem to hit their stride after 3-4 years. — 6 years ago
