Dom Chambris Cremant De Bourgogne Bdb
Description: | "What a pure delight it was to taste this rare and wonderful Blanc de Blanc Brut. It's 100% Chardonnay from 20-year-old vines (on average). The nose was like chalk dust, showing the soil, limestone and a bit of clay from the vineyard. My mind raced immediately to thoughts of bring on the oysters! For anyone who loves Chablis, this is where the wine was heading-- and make that a dozen, please. The bubbles were tiny and persistent, so nice, clean and crisp. A real rock-licker, but the creamy texture shined through from its nine months of aging on the fine lees. It also showed its mineral notes and a lovely touch of biscuits and lemon peel. What an absolute treat and a great value. Only 500 cases, so I wouldn't wait on this one. Pure bang for your buck! Other pairings besides my drooling choice of oysters would include smoked salmon, soft cheeses and stuffed mushrooms." |
