Chardonnay more

4/9/2023 - Russell Faulkner wrote: NR

June 2018 disgorgement with 1g/L

A richer Cramant, toasty and deep yellow fruits, the depth gives some early mature flavours. Very fine, but rich.

Quite dense, yellow plums, almost skinsy tannins give complexity, taught, no lack of acidity and extract here.

At Maison Sota. Alone really vibrantly fruity, light yet so compact and pure. With a variety of food was more mineral and less showy, very classy. Excellent.

Pinot Meunier more

8/18/2022 - Russell Faulkner wrote: NR

Only 240 bottles. All Meunier from 2020. Planted in 1968.

Unfiltered and has a slight haze, a bit natty, tangy and slightly vegetal. An exciting different Coteaux.

Only 11.5%, but still quite ripe, lacks a bit of zip, more Pinot Blanc than Aligote?

2017 Domaine Vincey Champagne Grand Cru Oger

Chardonnay more

8/8/2022 - Russell Faulkner wrote: NR

02/22 disgorgement, 1g/l, partial malo.

Sees some oak but already showing as light nutty character on the finish. Mostly ripe lemon with a hint of passion fruit. Very fresh with a lot of potential. Not very strict despite the dosage.

Feb 2019 disgorgement. Zero dosage.

This was barely rose, and blind I wouldn’t have guessed it, very good crisp low dosage Champagne but not one to open seeking fruit.

5/15/2022 - Russell Faulkner wrote: NR

All 2017, Pinot Noir disgorged on 26 March 2021.

Very bright Pinot red fruits. Very creamy mousse, a bit light on the midpalate, will flesh out I think. Tart but tangy finish.

Tangy green, a bit of gooseberry, has a lot of depth, almost bitter extract at the moment. Shows potential for the vintage, but not easy to read today.
