"It would be hard to imagine two better credentialed owners than Xavier Bizot (son of the late Christian Bizot of Bollinger fame) and wife Lucy Croser (daughter of Brian and Ann Croser). ‘Terre a terre' is a French expression meaning down to earth. The close-planted vineyard is on a limestone ridge, adjacent to Tapanappa's Whalebone Vineyard." James Halliday

"70% pinot noir/30% chardonnay made from the pressings ex a sparkling wine - a reverse saignee that had a very complex elevage, and more than fulfilled the expectations had for it. Seriously good rose." 94pts - James Halliday - Wine Companion
