| Community Tasting Notes (average 90.4 pts. and median of 91 pts. in 8 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by Njbern on 10/7/2023 & rated 92 points: Refreshing, creamy, buttery, nutty like a macadamia nut croissant. But still has apple and orange peel acidity. Lovely stuff (219 views) | | | Tasted by Rich S on 12/31/2021 flawed bottle: Horribly corked. Serious bummer on NYE. (908 views) | | | Tasted by WallWino1 on 6/16/2020 & rated 91 points: 91 pts - great acidity, crisp green apple, yeast, bread notes (1408 views) | | | Tasted by MemorialWineFan on 1/18/2020 & rated 88 points: really good, but not nearly as much as the Special Club. Better to go for that instead. (1599 views) | | | Tasted by hfindlay on 11/21/2018: Juicy, yes. Rich, yes. Creamy, well, a little - more like caramel and resin. Definitely an excellent vintage Champagne with tight tiny bubbles and a miraculous freshness, considering its age and corpulence. (2136 views) | | | Tasted by Superjojo57 on 6/5/2018 & rated 89 points: Joli Champagne, classique, peut-être un peu trop dosé à mon goût. (2273 views) | | | Tasted by AV2012 on 1/3/2018: Quite nice balance, elegant, typical bdb style. Loved it. Lassalle always delivers. (1567 views) |

France - When it comes to wine, France stands alone. No other country can beat it in terms of consistent quality and diversity. And while many of its Region, Bordeaux, Burgundy and Champagne most obviously, produce wine as rare, as sought-after and nearly as expensive as gold, there are just as many obscurities and values to be had from little known appellations throughout the country. To learn everything there is to know about French wine would take a lifetime. To understand and appreciate French wine, one only has to begin tasting them. Click for a list of bestselling items from all of France.
Sub-Region:
Champagne - The French region of Champagne (including the cities of Rheims, Épernay, and Aÿ) was the first region in the world to make sparkling wine in any quantity. Today, the name of the region is synonymous with the finest of all sparkling wines, and wine-making traditions of Champagne have become role models for sparkling wine producers, worldwide. Surprisingly, the region of Champagne is now responsible for only one bottle in 12 of all sparkling wine produced. Styles of champagne range in sweetness ranging from an extra brut or brut 0, to the basic brut to demi sec to doux; some houses produce single vintage champagnes and others produce non-vintage (or incorporate wines/grapes of multiple vintages), often to preserve a specific taste; combinations of grape varietals; and colors, including a rosé. There are several sub-appellations, including the Valley of the Marnes river running from Épernay west, Massif de Saint-Thierry north and west of Rheims, Valley of the Ardre, the Mountains of Rheims (between Rheims and Épernay), Côte des Blancs, Côte de Sézanne, and Côte des Bar in the South. Champagne wine only uses three grape varietals (cépages): Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier. |
