"Here the nose is aromatically similar to the Narvaux but with more floral influences. There is notably better volume to the richer and fleshier medium-bodied flavors that are overly saline, which adds a sense of lift to the clean, dry and linear finish. Lovely stuff." —Burghound

"The 2018 Meursault Les Charmes-Dessus 1er Cru has a harmonious nose with scents of lime, lemon zest, melted candle wax and grilled walnuts, the latter becoming more pronounced with aeration. The palate is well balanced with a spicy opening. Good weight in the mouth, maybe missing the tension of other vintages blessed with cooler summers. The dab of lemongrass towards the finish livens things up. Drink over the next decade." —Vinous

Dom Perignon P2 Brut Champagne 2004 Size: 750ml

"On the nose, aromas of almond and powdered cocoa develop gradually into white fruit with hints of dried flowers. Classic toasted notes give a rounded finish and denote a fully realized maturity. On the palate, the wine instantly traces an astoundingly fine line between density and weightlessness. Its precision is extreme, tactile, dark and chiselled. The full taste lingers with the utmost elegance on a sappy, spicy note." —winemaker

Ruinart Blanc de Blancs Brut Size: 750ml

"Ruinart Blanc de Blancs embodies purity of the Chardonnay grapes from which it is made exclusively. Made primarily with Premiers Crus from the Côte des Blancs and Montagne de Reims terroirs, it is intensely aromatic. The nose is powerfully reminiscent of fresh fruits with dominant notes of citrus and exotic fruits, followed by a touch of jasmine, white peaches and pink peppercorns. The palate is both precise and clean as the wine delivers a radiant balance between roundness and smoothness. Ruinart Blanc de Blancs is the emblem of the Ruinart Taste." —winemaker
