Community Tasting Note

Goldstone Likes this wine:

Wednesday, November 30, 2022 - 'Le Lievre a la Royale' Long Lunch (cafe EPURE, Shop 403, inside Epure, Level 4, Ocean Centre, Harbour City, Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong): Quite mature-looking pronounced golden yellow colour. Drank as an aperitif but would have beneffited from light food such as Prawn Cevice or Scallop Carpaccio. Shows some age in terms of a fast-dissipating mousse but it’s still there if you swirl the glass. Still nicely languorous and persistent streams of bubbles. Nice nutty nose, lightly roasted hazelnuts, some oak, nicely matured. Predominantly Pinot Noir. Lots of character. Much more mature than 2002 DP or Cristal and I think it is probably at peak maturity. Lovely. My first time with this producer. 92+ Thanks, Pierre!
