    The wine shows ripeness in the nose, rather full and more concentrated.
    The wine shows lowet carbonation, it feels again more concentrated (maybe due to lesser than expected co2), rounder, broader and richer, on the other hand, the carbonation is less but lasts longer, medium to long finish.

  • NV Marc Hébrart Champagne Premier Cru Cuvée de Réserve Brut 88 Points

    France, Champagne, Champagne Premier Cru

    The wine shows "typical" expression compared to the others, yeasty, citrus, peppers, a few red fruit notes, gets better with time in the glass, fresh and minty.
    The wine shows lightness in the palate, citrus, minty, a bit spicy, light to medium body, medium to high acidity, short to medium finish.
    Very good quality, just a couple of steps behind compared to the rest of the line up. 88+
