Floral jasmine and Daphne flower notes are mesmerizing, with aromas of blueberry fruit leather and orange peel joining the fun. While black cherries are the dominant fruit flavor, the wine's fig, nutmeg and bacon fat flavors are mouthwatering. Sturdy tannins with restrained acidity.

An elegant pinot noir, generously perfumed with a pleasant musk. Notes of tilled earth, new leather and red cherry skin mark the palate. A hint of bitterness contributes to the overall impression of freshness. The oak treatment and natural fruit spice seem to blend seamlessly into one another. Botanicals such as hibiscus, bay leaf, and white pepper emerge with a little air. Features notable structure and excellent length. Engaging and lively. Best 2025-2030.

Good, bright ruby-red. Black fruits & licorice on the nose. Rich, generous and deep with lovely energy and underlying minerality enlivening the black cherry and spice flavors. A very broad, sweet Charmes that finishes with a fine dusting of tannins and excellent lift. Tasted March 2010.

About the Winery
Champagne Fresne Ducret
Fresne-Ducret is rich in family history and has been rooted in the premier cru village of Villedommange since the mid 1800s. Originally growing grapes for the big champagne houses, it wasn’t until the end of the second world war that the family decided to make their own wine. The tradition carries on today with Pierre Fresne and his wife Daniella (an Oakville ex-pat). Their philosophy is to produce wines that best exemplify the terroir of Villedommange, and they do this with sustainability in mind.
In 2014, Pierre Fresne embarked on a new adventure by creating a limited series of champagnes based on his desire for experimentation. Since then, he has produced one or two of these wines each year. Each are unique, according to his wishes and the profile of the vintage. This unique collection is called Arquémie, the term for alchemy in the Middle Ages. In 2018 Pierre began converting the vineyards to organic viticulture, and 2021 will be their first organic certified vintage.

The Lot number on this bottle is L012303 for what it’s worth and almost surely not the same as was tasted 14 months ago. No matter because the oxidative style delivers as rich and unctuous a Champagne as it gets. Some will find this a bit over in that regard, even caramelized but the nuances and flavours are exceptional, gingery, with dried nuts fruits and earthy accents. The sugars compensate and mix in so well for a very specific style of Champagne with length that goes on and on. Last tasted November 2023.
Properly toasty and decidedly autolytic Champagne here from Fresne Ducret’s inquisitive label, “The New Explorers.” Fashioned in the oxidative yet spirited way, gingered and arid, dried herbal and crunchy as they come. Just plain exciting and complex non-vintage Champagne in a true grower’s style. Drink 2022-2024.

Maison Roche de Bellene's entry-level pinot noir is an excellent choice for those looking for an affordable yet classic Bourgogne rouge. With notes of supple red berries, dark cherries, delicate toasted brown spices, and hints of savoury herbs and violets, it is full of character, yet shows the sense of self-possession one expects from pinot noir from this region. I like the fleshy palate, fine but firm tannins, and tart yet balanced acidity. The length is excellent, with a perfumed finish. I would buy a few bottles of this wine for my cellar at this price

About the Winery
Kellerei Bozen - Cantine Bolzano
Cantina Bolzano, based in the town of Bolzano, traces its roots to two of Alto Adige’s most historic cooperatives: Santa Magdalena, est. 1930 and Cantina Gries, est. 1908. After deciding to merge in 2001, Cantina Bolzano was created. Bolzano is located in the middle of a valley basin surrounded by hilly vineyards that grow from 200 meters above sea level up to 1000. North and south meet in this valley, and the sun warms the stony soils with its pronounced diurnal temperatures, protecting the vines from the cold.
The average growers’ plots in Sudtirol averages only approx. 1 hectare, and the area, with its famed reputation and steep slopes, is an expensive area to farm. The member of Bolzano (approx. 300 in all) own many of the best vineyards throughout the region, including the Valle Isarco, and pool their resources to create top quality wines. And while no grower is certified organic, many practice organic viticulture and all of them adhere to natural practices in their vineyards. Most growers have lived on their farms with their families for generations. They protect their land and cultivate their vineyards as they have done for generations with total respect of the environment where they live.

An elegant and notably refined northeastern Italian Blauburgunder (pinot noir). Features a mid-weight palate, delicately spiced with plenty of verve. Cleanly made with richly layered flavours of plum, raspberry, cherry and chalk. Delicate, supple tannins and gentle acids add discreet texture to the palate. Highly gulpable. Best served with a slight chill.

Deeply scented pinot noir with intense cassis, dark cherry/berry, vanilla and classy French oak flavours. Bright, youthful wine with power and energy. Accessible now but with good cellaring potential.

Aromas of a complex wine with a stony mineral led quality followed by scents of dark cherry and baked plum then sweetness of barrel and a fine smoky wood quality. Dark rose and clove, plum and vanilla, there’s a fine silica and saline quality to the sense of place this wine carries as well. On the palate - taut and youthful, salivating and texture, complex and fine. A delicious wine with velvet textured tannin, plenty of acidity and a core flavours of red berries, plum then wood spices and sense of place with an earthy mineral quality. Lengthy finish with charm and complexity. Best drinking from 2023 through 2033.
