Had at dinner last night plus a big ol’ honkin’ glass when I got home (I’m amazed there were leftovers). This wine was dope. Mainly crisp raspberries and sour-ish wild strawberries is what I remember. And herbs and yeast. Full, rich, balanced and made everything on the table taste better. Drink now or hold for 10+ years I suppose.

Negoce face-off at Bellyhappychef: Guessed this was a house from a warmer vintage like ‘09 or ’12. Had a slightly natural nose but the palate had a typical broad-shouldered, yeasty house style. Got much better at a warmer temperature, very clean and precise raspberry fruit. Gastronomic sort of champagne that went well with food, approachable for ‘08.

This was very nice. Crisp and vibrant with tart strawberry and red currant alongside some brioche and mineral notes. Good depth.

Jabot vs Faiveley (Bellyhappy Chef): Blind. Pale salmon in colour, red fruits, prune, broad structure, good ripeness
