Terry Theise: Part of a three-commune series of Club bottlings, in tiny quantities, and again, this arose not from dissatisfaction with the existing Clubs (which are perfect and need not be improved—cannot be) but from sheer curiosity. What’s everyone talking about with these micro-terroir wines? There’s also a Cramant wine for which the jury’s out. But this will be interesting! Disg. 3/17 it is 100% Montaigu (planted in 1951), picked 9/21 and not chaptalized. He plans to release it at year’s end, but I might suggest waiting longer, bearing in mind I tasted from a bottle disgorged in the previous couple days.
