Quite traditional with just the right level of sweetness. Not rich by any means but not bracing like typical Zero Dosage wines.
Lots of lemon, mineral and autolysis. (84 views) | | | Tasted by Ben Christiansen on 5/2/2024: Lots of rich toast, and then a bit of urbane funk mixed in.

The dosage is quite evident here as others have noted, but I find it to be adequately balanced by nifty minerality and fine acidity. A really good aperitif champagne. (1118 views) | | | Tasted by thewiz on 3/30/2023 & rated 89 points: Provning för Paliro (Palrio, Kungsgatan): (Disgorged in fall of 2022, base year 2018 with 35% reserves, approx. 40% Pinot Noir, 10% Meunier and 50% Chardonnay)
Nice and pleasant with a fruitful yellow apples acidity and citrus minerals touch on the pleasant finish. Drinking very well as an easy aperitif.
(Probably best with 0-5 years extra cellaring) (941 views) | | | Tasted by NickA on 3/3/2023 & rated 90 points: Joel's Tuscan Lunch (A farmhouse in leafy Kent): 2016 base but not very developed. An enlivening aperitif style, with real bite. Flavour profile dominated by green apple, and unsurprisingly very crisp on the finish too.

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.ChampagneThe vineyards of Champagne on weinlagen-info |
