  • 90/91. 12%: An elegant wine with Biscuity tones and good freshly fruited length. Drink in next 2-5 years.

  • Christmas family dinner 2023

    NV Drappier Carte d*Or Champagne (1 magnum) - 90p
    Brilliant Pinot Noir based apero (75% PN, 15% Chardonnay, 10% Meunier) with 7g/L dosage.

    2020 Weingut Jakob Schneider Niederhäuser Klamm Riesling Trocken (1 magnum) - 94p
    WOTN for me, no surprise Parker rated this 95p! Vibrant, elegant, zingy palate with incredible length and depth, light petrol, lots of minerals, yellow plums, and perfect acidity.

    2021 Schloss Johannisberg Riesling Gelblack trocken (3 bottles) - 90p
    I tried all Gelblack vintages since 2013 and this is imo the best one since 2015. Creamy and highly mineralic Riesling with peaches and salty herbs.

    2015 Villa Al Cortile Brunello di Montalcino (2 bottles) - 91p
    2h decant, much better after 4h. Light crimson red colour. Herbal-juicy palate with tart cherries, strong tannins, acidiy, tarragon, and leather. Excellent food pairing with homemade Beef Wellington.

    2014 Château Faugeres (1 bottle) - 91p
    2h decant. Dark red almost black colour. Lovely silky palate with black and blue berries, light licorice, chocolate and oak. Suckling rated this 94p and WA 92p. Might get there in a couple of years.

  • Pale & light yellow in color with a very fine & constant perlage. Full, forward & fragrant nose of ripe fruit aromas of pears, apples & lemons/limes with overtones of floral & yeasty/toasty notes & minerals. Light bodied with a good concentration of balanced & smooth textured, ripe fruit flavors of apples, pears & lemons/limes with yeasty/toasty & minerals. Lingering finish. Drinks quite well at present & might develop further with another year of additional aging. An indicative blend of 80% Pinot Noir, 15% Chardonnay & 5% Pinot Meunier. This Champagne is sure to be a crowd pleaser.

Washington Wine Report

    12/29/2011, (See more on Washington Wine Report...) ***** points

    (NV Drappier Brut Carte d'Or Champagne) An aromatic wine full of brioche and raspberries. The palate is dry with a creamy feel, full of evolving flavors of raspberries and lemon. An extended finish. Retail is listed at $49 but currently being sold around town for a non-sale price of $35, which is a steal.
