So interesting. Always a 100% Pinot Noir blend from three different reserve vintages (one at least ten years old). Bright golden color. Distinct umami aromas along with hints of green apples, white flowers and red berry fruit. Flavors of red cherries and strawberries, soy sauce, apricot and mushrooms. Beautiful note of mineral tension on the long, persistent and lingering finish. Fine stream of tiny bubbles and a creamy mousse. Outstanding freshness, complexity and length. Bright and clean acidity. Quite intense yet very delicate at the same time. Simply fantastic and totally unique. Beautiful basket-style packaging. Thanks for bringing this special New Year’s Eve bottle, Kase! — a month ago

Superbe bouteille encore en belle forme, d'un équilibre impeccable c'est d'une délicatesse et pureté à couper le souffle. Bouquet de fruits confits et murs, prunes et violette, notes animales, cèdre noble, cacao, moka et caramel fumé. La bouche est toute en douceur comme de la soie et d'une très bonne longueur. Évidemment c'est le temps de le boire il est en pente descendante mais pour un amateur de Bourgogne et de vins fins c'est sublime. Bel accord avec une entrée de fois gras poêlé & poires, et le filet de veau sauce aux champignons. — 4 years ago

Smells Like watermelon, light citrus, and a little bit of vanilla. Deep rosy pink color. Delightfully fruity, but still manages to be refreshingly dry. It should have been a little colder, so I suggest almost ice cold temperatures for this one. Delicious. — 3 years ago

Bright fruit with hints of game, olives, stems. Hits way above its price point ( a K&L bargain… I love a bargain!) — a year ago

Another interesting one. Would have guessed it was a young big year Oregon Pinot. — 3 years ago

Light straw; smokey nose that suggests an impactful palate to follow; this is very mineral and masculine somehow. The chalky minerality is all I remember, that, and today this upstaged the 2015 Special Club. Base is 2019.
