"Finely detailed in texture with an expressive flavor profile of strawberry pâte de fruit biscotti ground anise and ginger matched to vivid acidity and a rich minerally character. Broad and creamy on the palate featuring a long echoing finish. Drink now through 2029. "
"Moet?s 2003 Brut Rose Dom Perignon exhibits both richness and robustness reflecting its torrid vintage yet manages to stint neither on primary juiciness nor transparency to nuance; nor does it come off as at all heavy. Lightly cooked ripe strawberry and fig infused with rose hip licorice Ceylon tea heliotrope and leather inform a delightfully forward nose and lush effusively fruity palate. A tart and seedy edge to the strawberry serves for invigoration; and lobster shell reduction serves for mouthwatering salinity and somehow downright sweet animal savor. There is a hint of tannin but it is fine-grained and suggestive of structural support. A long seductively rich finish manages to harbor not just the immediately aforementioned virtues but also a sense of transparency to floral and tea-like nuances and to virtually shimmering stoniness. This alluring and distinctive beauty should be worth following for at least the next half dozen years."
