Thursday, December 6, 2018 - 2012 Marguet Single Vineyard Champagnes (Passerotto, Chicago IL): Nose: The nose plays to the upper register with a spring-like quality to the tones of peaches, pears, red apples, fresh picked herbs, tidal pool aromas, quince, biscuit, and white florals. The nose really draws you in with it's charm and femininity along with excellent depth.

Taste: Medium/full bodied with high acidity. The acidity has a good bit of zip to it, but it is well balanced and not overpowering. The feel has some density, but it is still able to be light on it's toes with peaches, pears, red apples, fresh picked herbs, minerals, and biscuits.

Overall: This was a real expressive and elegant champagne. It possesses a good amount of poise already and it feels like it can benefit from about 3-5 years of aging.
