Tasting Notes | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Golden in color, the 2004 Brut Millésime Grand Cru offers an intense and precise aroma of slightly toasted whole-grain bread, brownish apples, apple strudel, oranges, dried fruits, raisins, brioche, and hints of mocha and nougat. This full-bodied yet lovely, really pure and dry wine is very elegant, quite expressive on the palate, and finishes with a refreshing lime aroma and citric acidity. This is a classic for fans of complex Champagnes of great purity and finesse. The wine is very well structured and quite firm in the finish and aftertaste, and can be stored for 4-5 years. The wine was sourced from old vines in grands cru vineyards of Ambonnay and bottled for the second fermentation without filtration. It was then kept on the lees for 100 months and disgorged in November 2013. Score: 93 Stephan Reinhardt, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com Maturity: 2015-2020 01 October 2015 |

Like a walk through a Turkish bazaar, this firm and finely cut Champagne is laced with exotic ground spice and incense notes, accented by pure flavors of apricot preserves, pastry cream, cognac and candied kumquat, all set on a fine, satiny mousse. Drink now through 2025. Score: 94 Alison Napjus, Wine Spectator Maturity: 2015-2025 17 September 2015 |
