You just got to love these! Oxidative, nutty, waxy. And yet, with incredible freshness and precision.
Bruised apples, pears, a touch of citrus peal, nutty notes. So complex, so distinctive.
On the palate this is just so fresh, juicy, pure, with some fruity notes but also with this vibrant salinity. So alive!
Damn, this is so good! — 16 days ago

Well balanced, with good acidity yet retaining a softness on the palate. Flavors of brioche, baked apple, grapefruit, toasted hazelnuts, and a mineral-driven finish. Really enjoyed this, and went well with scallops with brown butter sauce. — a month ago

Nice champagne on board LH F. It’s in a decent place, but not spectacular. Curious to see how it will evolve in flight - the younger champagnes can be better once airborne — 2 days ago

Pale lemon in color.

Light on nose and medium plus in body with medium plus acidity.

Dry on the palate with medium plus sized bubbles.

Showing limes, grapefruits, lemons, green apples, yeast, minerals, brioche, sea salt, spices and herbs.

Medium finish with limes and grapefruits.

This 9 year old Champagne is still too young, and needs 10 years in the bottle to mature properly.

Easy drinking, fruit forward and elegant. Already delicious, even by itself, complex and interesting.

Robert Parker 95 points. Wine Spectator 96 points.

Needs an hour to open up properly, so be patient.

I've had many different vintages of this Champagne and this vintage feels more approachable young. Will continue to get better in the next 20 years.

Great by itself or with food.

A blend of 51% Pinot Noir and 49% Chardonnay. Disgorged in 2023.

12.5% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

$250. — 2 days ago

Really liked, almost loved. Drank with my wife on her birthday. She's not normally a red wine drinker, but she really liked this bottle. I bought another bottle a couple of years newer - I hope it's as good! — 10 days ago

@Doug Powers as promised . Dry leaves and plums on the nose. In the mouth spices, cherry , earth and good acid . Certainly the magnum format kept this alive. However for me it had not become complex and had a very clipped finish. — 15 days ago

21 years old. Drinking 2005 in 2026. One of the best QPR wines out there. A classic Old World Rioja offering unbelievable quality for the price. Visually, it pours a deep, dark ruby. The nose is rich with seductive burnt oak, dark berries, and smooth vanilla.
On the palate, it delivers a soft, well-balanced light-to-medium body bursting with red and black fruit, sweet cocoa, and a subtle green touch. It closes with a solid medium-plus fruity finish.
This 2005 vintage has plenty of life left to improve for years — 9 days ago

💯 for the privilige and the scarcity. Incomparable nose of chocolate figs, dates and raisins. Port/sherry notes! On the palate this is very lively, yet quite acidic.
To me, this is more intriguing and interesting than tasty… — a month ago

9.1

this is very light… Almost rosé colored with a hint of Amber. On the nose, classic Nebiolo, lifted, pure and bright. This is fully mature and pretty light bodied… A touch shrill on the finish. Cherry, dried flowers, and a hint of a tang. Decent, but it’s probably saying better days. — a month ago
