Big nose. Loads of minerals. Really airy, really dense, really provocative aromas. Subtle and nuanced aromas with a nice swath of minerals. Killer. Juicy and complex with terrific thrust and intensity. Elegant and finesse driven but also there is unabashed brute force. The truck driver in the tutu. Concentrated and juicy. — 9 years ago
Everything I could possibly want it to be at this age. Damsons and blackcurrant, meat, smoke, earth. Depth, power, complexity. Packs a huge punch (I laughed when I first put my nose in it) yet stays dainty and elegant. A hippo in a tutu doing a startlingly good pirouette, a wild animal and an aristocrat. Am almost frightened by how good this will be when fully mature. — 10 years ago
Super complex nose. Layered and confectionery. Matchstick. Intense minerality. Powerful and elegant. The minerality. Jagged, rocky minerality. Concentrated. Attack is powerful and the finish is so refined. Wonderful purity. Long and detailed. Chewy and concentrated. Very dry. Such finesse. Trucker in a tutu. Wow. Super pure. What a finish. This is genius. This has the finesse and elegance of the top wines of Germany. — 4 years ago
Tasted while visiting Devaux, in the Côte de Bar—the house itself, an historic building just off the bank of the river Seine. Thier non-vintage Cuvée Rosée is tutu pink, with a fine bead it offers a pretty sensor arc of rose petals, anise, red berries and pastille mints. Fresh and convivial on the palate, it's not a rosé Champagne of tremendous depth or power, what it communicates is poise and pleasure. Sample — 10 years ago
Delicious and care free. It makes me think I am wearing a tutu — 9 years ago
Iron fist in spiked leather glove. Big, licorice-y, mostly Malbec...but saved by its 100+ year-old-vine lift, refinement and balance. An NFL left tackle in a tutu. — 10 years ago
Great fragrant Pinot Grigio — 13 years ago

What I need in Chardonnay, so sublime, so subtly nuanced like you sometimes cannot see the layers of tulle through the tutu but the more you pay attention the more each layer shows its contribution, so freshly vibrant of apple juice but that seems too prosaic, it’s the softest and yet acid apple you’ve ever encountered. Honeycomb flounces, allspice veneers all displayed on an altar of zen—the water flowing eternally over pebbles. I am frequently happy for Chardonnay but haven’t been so taken on a ride I never want to end in recent memory — 4 days ago
