Very complex nose of citrus blossoms, floral honey and brioche with a hint of fresh mushroom.Really concentrated, but so incredibly focused and precise, this is a masterpiece of Chardonnay elegance! Very long and extremely mineral finish that lights up the sky like fireworks. A cuvée of wines from the Grand Cru villages of Cramant (60%) and Chouilly (26%) with wine from the 1er Cru village of Cuis (14%), the oldest vines dating back to 1911 and 1913. Drink or hold. James Suckling. Pale golden yellow, silver reflections, fine mousse. Inviting yellow fruit nuances, Cox apple, delicate meadow herbs, fine minerality, lemon nuances, with a fine brioche touch in the background. Powerful, juicy and lively structure, white apple fruit, lime, salty finish, lets the soil of Cramant speak with a hint of flint stone, good further certain ageing potential. (Deg. 6/21). - Falstaff. A hint of smokiness in the 2015 Champagne Special Club Brut is followed by pithy citrus of grapefruit, white flowers, and bread dough. It has linear and energetic tension, with a long driving finish. Drink 2022-2032. - Af, JebDunnuck. A vibrant blanc de blancs, with a chalky underpinning and a mouthwatering frame wrapped in the creamy mousse, which carries flavors of glazed pear and tangerine, creamed almond and candied ginger. Disgorged January 2022. Drink now through 2030. 60 cases imported. - Wine Spectator |
