  October 9, 2019 - The yellow and red is because those are the traditional colors of their region. Reserve is an old negociant term.
  
  The idea here is accessability and display of fruit. Aged on lees for three months. Their own native yeast strand that they developed.
  
  With a touch of development on the nose. Fairly rich and textured across the palate. Accessible for sure. Works it out at $14 or so.

  April 19, 2018 - Lucien Albrecht Tasting (Primrose - Washington, DC): Rich and honeyed and peachy on the nose, but also some chalk dust and flowers. Crisp acidity and a fresh appeal (2g of sugar in here) with peaches, apricots, limes. Honey, saline, chalk and minerals add complexity. Concentrated fruit from a low-yielding vintage, this is delicious right now but will improve with a few years.
