The 2020 Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs Les 3 Terroirs was harvested in Montgueux, Mesnil-sur-Oger and Vindey. The base wines did not go through malolactic conversion. A very shy nose leads to a super-slender palate with wonderfully fine mousse and brisk tension, a most welcome quality considering the hot 2020 vintage. This is a wonderful wine, offering all the elegance and fine-boned self-evidence we have come to expect from Gonet. The finish is gratifyingly lip-smacking. Dosage is 4 grams per liter. Disgorged: January 2025.

Medium ruby-purple colored, the 2022 Halley's Comet Pinot Noir charges out with powerful notes of juicy blackberries, black cherries and forest floor, leading to hints of black truffles, crushed rocks, and wild sage. The full-bodied palate is dense with black fruit and earthy sparks, supported by velvety tannins and amazing tension, finishing very long with so many layers.

Exotic red and black fruits, leafy herbs, underbrush, and sappy flower notes all shine in the 2022 Pinot Noir Halley's Comet, a beautifully balanced, elegant 2022 that has integrated acidity, ripe yet present tannins, and a stunning finish.

The 2019 Rosso de Veo is intense, with a burst of dried black cherries, autumnal spices and rubbed sage. This is a dark and brooding vintage for Veo, with depths of ripe red and blue fruit propelled by zesty acidity. Saline minerals saturate, and a primary concentration forms toward the close. It finishes dramatically long and tannic, yet they are round and soft contoured. Licorice and a tart cranberry concentration linger on and on. While labeled as Umbria Rosso, the Rosso de Veo could easily be a Montefalco Sagrantino, filling a happy place in the portfolio that adds a lot of value for lovers of Paolo Bea.

"The 2003 Clos du Marquis possesses higher alcohol (13.4%) than the 2003 grand vin, no doubt because of the higher percentage of Merlot in the final blend. This impressive sleeper of the vintage boasts a deep ruby/purple color as well as abundant amounts of fleshy, black cherry and currant fruit interwoven with mocha, vanillin, and spice box. Pure, layered, upfront, and already delicious, it should be drunk over the next 12-15 years."

"Entirely sourced from the high elevation ‘XL Vineyard’ in the Walla Walla Valley, the 2015 ‘Fianchetto’ was aged in 60% new French oak for 30 months and also saw two years of bottle age before release. The flavor density is outstanding considering the challenges that presented themselves in this exceedingly warm vintage, as ripe dark currants collide with cherry cordial, Earl Grey tea and exotic spices on the palate. Super refined and elegant, this has a long way to go. Drink 2021-2033"

"Dark red-ruby. Aromas of cassis, black cherry, dark raspberry, licorice and bitter chocolate complemented by sexy spicy oak tones. Fine-grained, very ripe and classically dry, combining serious alcoholic clout and surprising energy. Plush, concentrated red berry flavors are lifted by a floral element that's rare for such a ripe Bordeaux blend. This powerful wine finishes with broad, dusty tannins and serious sweetness. Constant wind at this site typically results in small, thick-skinned berries, and Naravane noted that the tannins here can easily get out of whack. He presses the wine before it's fully dry and allows the fermentation to finish in barrels. (15.3% alcohol; aged for 28 months in 80% new Tronçais oak; from SeVein vineyards)"

"The non-vintage Light Manzanilla Papirusa Solera Reserva (with an average age of five years in this solera) possesses an extraordinary, penetrating nose of salty brined nuts intermixed with crisp fruit, terrific acidity and intense, powerful, authoritative flavors that are ethereal in their lightness."
