  December 3, 2023 - Champagne Bookclub---bring a top shelf + a still: Bottle # 1592. Not much else in terms of info. White peach, strawberry, ginger, watermelon and a spice finish, what evolved to an asian 5-spice when it had a good amount of air....retasting from last night's leftover, a real good pour was saved! Same kind of salmon/pinkish hue. This is a meal of a wine today. There is a big amount of texture that this shows, a kind of juicy and plump palate coater of a wine. Very similar fruit signatures to yesterday, too. I also sense some wood embedded into the core of the wine, with some of the 5 spice but not to the degree of yesterday. If I was to sum this up, I'd say to think of this as a juicy wine that can give you a big hug, wearing a light jacket of citrus, yet not carrying with it the structure that will carry it forward, i.e. a more pleasure driven, short-term kind of Rose. I appreciate Ramon sharing this with the group, as I had yet to try the wine previously--thank you buddy.

  July 27, 2023 - Quite fresh and tasty. Lots of pretty strawberry fruit and a bit or maraschino cherry. Soft. Not much depth. Good but I don’t get the hype.

  April 30, 2023 - Disgorged 2020. This is a very pale rose made in a more delicate style than Selosse or Savart for example. Strawberry, citrus and mineral. It’s good but not great for the recent prices.

  April 22, 2023 - This is an interesting champagne with a unique profile, especially for a rosé. Deeply saturated color. Explosive foam but somehow the bubbles that make it into the glass are subdued. Full flavor, medium finish. Strawberry peeks out on the aroma but not on the palate which instead reveals intense minerality, earthiness and unusual spices such as cinnamon and cumin. It’s not an apératif style champagne but with the right food it’s a perfect match.
