they hired FIVE MORE PEOPLE to work their vineyards

It has a fine future as it softens and opens up

Robertson told me he thinks it's the combination of altitude

with excellent fruitiness and great persistence on the palate

A joyful wine with signature salty and briny notes

Domaine Taupenot-Merme La Combe d'Orveau 2020 France Champagne Drappier they hired FIVE MORE PEOPLEA ripe but notably fresher nose speaks of dark cherry, raspberry, anise, violet and a hint of exotic tea. The much finer medium bodied flavors are also more minerality driven while offers excellent length on the balanced finale. This too is very Chambollesque and a wine that should amply repay a decade plus of keeping. 93 Pts Allen Meadows
