Still one of the most exceptional sparklers -- non-Champ, under $50 division -- I can think of.

I'm not going to make any claims that this is Dagueneau; and in point of fact, there are a handful of other Saint-Bris wines that I'd give the slight nod to (Goisot, e.g.). On the other hand, do I know of / have I recently had a more refined ~$20+ French SB? Not sure I do or have. Just a great wine to have ready to hand. Crisp & limestone-zapped, it's a thing that beats many/most lower-to-middle-tier Sancerres; great QPR.

2/7/2024 8:25:00 AM - Thanks for the invitation, Wormfarmer. I was that way last in 1999. I remember a slightly confusing pilgrimmage to the KLWM shop from which I left with a bottle of 1998 Sang des Cailloux ($15 iirc.) I think it was the next night we opened it at a byob Spanish restaurant in the Mission district—the table next to us were startled by the aroma of the wine as it wafted in their direction. We sure drank a lot of Rhône wine in those days ... Even if I don't expect to be in your area in the near future, I am happy to reciprocate should you ever find yourself in Detroit. Late April is the best!

E.g. https://www.cellartracker.com/wine.asp?iWine=1411543 which I recently picked up for the same price as the Orleans. It's all personal taste, of course!
