Rare Millésime  is just as iconic as Rare Millésime 2002.

In a warm yet precise and lively combination, the spiced aromas, floral accents and tropical notes create vivacious minerality.

Like an ode to joy, its radiant personality shines through its exceptional length.

 » Rare Millésime 2012 follows in the footsteps of Rare Millésime 2002 with its purity and iconic character. The wine expresses the combination of spiced aromas and tropical notes with unparalleled, indulgent precision. Its radiant and joyful minerality gracefully emerges.  »

Ode to Joy

Subtle at first, the nose gradually opens up. Its rich aromas are reminiscent of a stroll through Portofino, lush greenery in full bloom and the fresh scent of fruits lingering in the air. Mango, guava, plum and blueberry are especially prominent. Bold and zesty citrus fruit notes (bergamot, lemon) bring to mind the sparkling atmosphere of the Italian Riviera. Floral aromas of lilac call to mind colourful, elegant gardens overlooking the Mediterranean.

Finally, notes of honey, black tea, vanilla and white pepper yield to incense, smoke and accents of dried plants (lime blossom, blonde tobacco) in a prelude to the signature of Rare Champagne.

There was a mixed start to 2012; the vintage looked to be challenging with winter and springtime frosts, rainfall and hailstorms. Temperatures rose suddenly in mid-July, bringing hot, dry weather – perfect conditions for ripening. Although the yield of the harvests was low, the quality was exceptional.

Aging potential

Lively until 2044, unparalleled thereafter.

On the Eye The pale gold colour of Rare Millésime 2012 gleams in the glass.

Its bubbles are elegant and fine.

On the Nose rich and complex

The rich aromas of the first nose suggest delicious overtones of brioche, almond, mango, guava and bergamot. After a hint of heady florals (lilac), the nose develops spiced notes (honey, black tea, white pepper, incense and smoke).

On the Palate Concentrated, flavourful and infinitely long

The delicious mouthfeel is tangy and juicy. Citrus fruits emerge through an extremely silky texture. The exceptional length of the saline, mineral finish seems infinite

Description

The Time Tunnel NFT Experience has been paired and written around a theme of time travel adventure; it starred James Darren and Robert Colbert. The show was creator-producer Irwin Allen‘s third science-fiction television series and was released by 20th Century Fox Television and broadcast on ABC.

The show ran for one season of 30 episodes from 1966 to 1967.

A new pilot was produced in 2002, but failed to proceed to a series.

Project Tic-Toc is a top-secret U.S. government effort to build an experimental time machine, known as « The Time Tunnel » due to its appearance as an elliptical passageway. The base for Project Tic-Toc is a huge, hidden underground complex in Arizona, 800 floors deep and employing more than 12,000 specialized personnel.[1] The directors of the project are Dr. Douglas Phillips (Colbert), Dr. Anthony Newman (Darren), and Lt. General Heywood Kirk (Whit Bissell). The specialists assisting them are Dr. Raymond Swain (John Zaremba), a foremost expert in electronics, and Dr. Ann MacGregor (Lee Meriwether), an electrobiologist supervising the unit that determines how much force and heat a time traveler is able to withstand. The series is set in 1968, two years into the future from the actual broadcast season, 1966–1967.

Doctors Newman (James Darren), MacGregor (Lee Meriwether), and Phillips (Robert Colbert), 1966

Project Tic-Toc is in its 10th year when United States Senator Leroy Clark (Gary Merrill) comes to investigate to determine whether the project, which has cost $7.5 billion (equivalent to $68 billion in 2024), is worth continuing.

Senator Clark feels the project is a waste of government funds. When speaking to Phillips, Kirk, and Newman in front of the Time Tunnel, he delivers an ultimatum – either they send someone into time and return him during the course of his visit or their funding will cease. Tony volunteers for this endeavor, but he is turned down by project director Doug Phillips. Defying this decision, Tony sends himself into time. Doug follows shortly after to rescue him, but they both continue to be lost in time. Senator Clark returns to Washington with the promise that funding will not be cut off to the project, leaving General Kirk in charge.

The stage is set for the progress of the series as Tony and Doug are now « switched » from one period in history to another, allowing episodes to be set in the past and future. Episodes two through 23 begin with the following narration (voiced by Dick Tufeld):

Two American scientists are lost in the swirling maze of past and future ages, during the first experiments on America’s greatest and most secret project, the Time Tunnel. Tony Newman and Doug Phillips now tumble helplessly toward a new fantastic adventure, somewhere along the infinite corridors of time.

Tony and Doug become participants in past events such as the sinking of the Titanic, the attack on Pearl Harbor, the eruption of KrakatoaCuster’s Last Stand, and the Battle of the Alamo, among others. General Kirk, Ray, and Ann in the control room are able to locate them in time and space, observe them, occasionally communicate with them through voice contact, and send help. The series was abruptly cancelled in the summer of 1967 by ABC, before they were able to film the episode in which Tony and Doug are safely returned to the Time Tunnel complex.
