Terry Theise Estate Selections

    2011 Champagne Catalog, 6/1/2011, (See more on Terry Theise Estate Selections...)

    (NV Pierre Péters "Cuvée de Réserve" Brut) ($62.00) The ’08-based wine, now shipping, is the best NV the estate has ever shown me, and surely the best since the amazing ’02-based NV. Though this wine is in principle a constantly refreshed solera (half is the new vintage and half the previous blend; Billiot among others does the same), and though the goal is to mitigate variations, I find variations anyway, which is just the way I like it. It’s disgorged 12/10 and has an absolutely rapturous perfume, as if someone entered the room toting some cologne; the palate while youthfully snippy, is strikingly flowery, with minerals playing a gauzy background chord, so exotic you think it was fermented with peonies and wisteria soaking in the juice. The oolong-y length is mind boggling.

    (NV Pierre Peters Blanc de Blancs Brut Cuvée de Réserve, Le Mesnil sur Oger, Champagne) If you haven’t already noticed, expect most Champagne prices to jump dramatically within the next year. Pierre Peters, a small grower producing grand cru Champagne of tête de cuvée quality, still provides good value. His reserve blanc de blancs (100% Chardonnay) features crisp acidity, balanced yeastiness, and great length. Importer Terry Theise introduced grower Champagne to the United States, and this is one of the pearls from his portfolio. Hot Picks
