April 21, 2015 - An enjoyable champagne to be sure, but certainly not worth $80...buy their NV brut instead.

April 10, 2014 - Mailly like to make the occasional exception, just as they like to make the (more than) occasional exceptional wine. This is 50% Pinot Noir from the village of Mailly…so far, so normal, but also 50% Chardonnay from Avize, the Grand Cru village in the Côte de Blancs. The Chardonnay adds buttery hazelnut richness to the more usual biscuit and savoury descriptors associated with this house.

An expansive, and sweetbreads., lobster salad with parmesan shavings, powerful Champagne that will add a touch of distinction to the most lavish appetizers. Delightfully mineral with oysters and caviar; powerfully pure when combined with such gourmet delicacies as roasted crayfish, turbot in white butter, white meats with trufflesWho Likes This Wine
