I can’t remember ever tasting a Crémant de Bourgogne this good, and it tastes the way all the sparkling-wine advertising looks! What a beautiful pinot noir nose this has! Ripe raspberry fruit with notes of Amalfi... Read More
This smoky version features a core of black cherry, blackberry, violet and stony mineral flavors. Nicely balanced, with vibrant structure for support, keeping this focused and long.
The attractive red-beet and milk-chocolate nose leads you into a full-bodied, tannic wine that’s built for long aging. Plenty of ripe plum on the very bold, almost massive palate. Expands nicely as it aerates, but you need... Read More

This isn't as spicy as the En Caillerets but there is fine complexity to the mix of plum, dark cherry and earth scents. I very much like the texture of the more powerful if less refined medium weight flavors that flash a taut... Read More
