Flight 1 (3 Notes)

  • NV Georges Vesselle Champagne Grand Cru Brut 92 Points

    France, Champagne, Champagne Grand Cru

    Made from Bouzy Grand Cru fruit, 90% Pinot Noir, 10% Chardonnay. Further technical details undisclosed. Lovely fruit-driven style with nutty complexity, rich and elegant, juicy and supple with soft but fresh acidity and gentle bitters, convincing finish. Good value.

  • 2021 Thymiopoulos Xinomavro 91 Points

    Greece, Macedonia

    Protected Geographical Indication Macedonia. One of the basic wines of the estate, but so well made. Juicy and spicy, fresh and supple, succulent cherry and berry fruit, delightful flavours, whiff of forest floor, perfect weight and balance, pure and precise, gentle tannins, hint of liquorice on the finish, good length. A really elegant wine.

  • NV Château de Lacquy Bas Armagnac VSOP 91 Points

    France, Southwest France, Gascony, Bas Armagnac

    Classical style, masculine, prunes, considerable heat, but also a certain Cognac-like finesse (orange, flowers, whiff of vanilla), energetic, a fine VSOP.
