Since its foundation in 1729, Ruinart is the first established House of Champagne and has taken immense pride in the excellence of its cuvées. Every year the Brut and Blanc de Blancs are excellent, but my soft spot is for the electric Champagne Rose.
This astonishing blend of forty to fifty crus combines the freshness of chardonnay with the fruitiness of pinot noir, yielding a versatile and structured rosé, characterized by notes of exotic fruits. It also happens to be the first Champagne Rose ever made in 1764.
It is a blend of both Pinot Noir and Chardonnay that have been aged between two and three years. The blend is seamless and tantalizing with no shortage of flavors and aromas. Simplicity and complexity are combined on the palate of this cuvée where freshness is abundant and the wine boasts a ton of structure while still achieving a round, full-bodied mouthfeel.

This is a really exciting new release in the collection of single-vineyards from the Wagner Family, and arguably the most interesting one of the bunch. This is the only Pinot Noir in the Caymus collection that has the advantage of being from a natural Pinot Noir haven in the Russian River Valley. Dairyman Vineyard’s proximity to the pacific ocean, with its morning fog and afternoon coastal breezes allows for an even and elongated growing season, with super concentrated and expressive grape clusters that help make this Dijon clone Pinot Noir one that you need.
The aristocratic 2002 Savigny-les-Beaunes 1er cru Lavieres is just starting to hit its stride. The color is a bright, ruby red, with a marvelous bouquet of dark fruits laced with savory spice. The earth-tinged fruit is fresh and fine, dancing across the palate, vibrant and quite long. We drank this over a few hours; its development in the glass was a pleasure. There are so many layers to this wine, be sure to take your time with it.

“The 2000 Dom Perignon is a gorgeous, seductive wine that floats on the palate with remarkable grace. Toasty aromas meld into freshly cut flowers, apricots and pears, with sweet notes of mint and licorice that linger on the long finish. This perfumed, inviting Dom Perignon is elegance personified, and in this vintage the wine fully merits its lofty reputation.”

Eric Guido of Vinous just reviewed a number of Bele Casel wines last week and lobbed heaps of praise for each and every one of them. For this one in particular, he wrote a great review that I agree with on multiple fronts. For one, he called out ripe orchard fruits and candied citrus which I think helps set this one apart. In the dry category, you rarely get so much pure, juicy fruit as you do in this one. He also noted the “chalky minerality’ before calling out ‘the amazing length and freshness’ of this wine which called an ‘excellent entry into the dry category’.
