exotic spices and plums

this mid-weight

pure and intensely floral nose that is elegant

but this is one example where the younger generation is building on past success by taking things to an entirely new level

My only real criticism of Roederer is the estates insistence on using lot numbers that resemble missile launch codes in their complexity

de Montille, Volnay Champans Vintage:2012 exotic spices and plums(50% whole clusters). A much earthier mix of red and dark currant, violet and discreet herbal tea nuances slides into the supple lighter weight flavors that are a bit more elegant than usual, all wrapped in a nicely complex and persistent finish. This is certainly good but 2017 is not a great vintage for this wine. (89 92) 2025+
