Michel Gonet Blanc de Blancs Le Mesnil Grand Cru (750ML)
From Champagne
| Vintage: | 2015 |
|---|---|
| Description: | 93 Jd / 91 Vm. Disgorged in December 2022, with zero dosage, the 2015 Champagne Grand Cru Mesnil-Sur-Oger pours a bright yellow/silver color, and is ripe with aromas of bread dough, baker's yeast, fresh honeysuckle, and preserved lemon. It packs in a lot of electricity and intensity on the palate, with a broad core of citrus that powers through, and although it's medium-bodied, it fills those shoes to the max with its drive. Persistent with citrus and vibrant acidity, it offers an energetic and full mousse to balance it all out. Packed with notes of citrus oils on the palate, it's a very strong effort from the vintage that may well surprise in terms of its aging potential. Drink 2024-2036.-Audrey Frick, JebDunnuck. The 2015 Brut Nature Mesnil sur Oger Grand Cru was picked in the single parcel of Les Hautes Mottes in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger and the wine spent more than five years on lees. The nose opens with the enticing reduction of a distant struck match that blends in with maize meal and corn husk notions of autolysis. The palate is bright and has lightness, but this is rounder and less profound than pure Chardonnay from a storied grand cru would suggest. Blame the hot and dry summer and the short vegetative season. Yet, sprightliness and vivid lemon notions make for a very fresh finish. Zero dosage. Disgorged: December, 2022. - Anne Krebiehl Mw, Vinous Media |
