A very impressive, regal and elegant wine that really reminded me of a well-done slightly new oaked white Burgundy. It was very crystalline, and had a weightlessness that was quite surprising on the midpalate.

Elegant sitruspreget nese med mineraler. Hoi, denne var jaggu frisk! Kjenner ikke til detaljene, men her kunne jeg tenkt meg både full malo og høyere dosage. Dette er såpass stramt at frukten ikke takler det 100%. En lang finisih som kan best beskrives som sitronessens. God vin, men trekker litt for ubalanse.

Like a premier cru white Burgundy, excellent depth and richness with great cut and acidity! Blanc de Blanca so 100% Chardonnay. #courtin #champagnecampaign

Drank out of white wine glasses. The bubbles were really quite aggressive especially on the pour. Bone dry and very good length and body. Needed at least 30-45mins of air to open up. Thought not a bad match with sushi. Chablis with bubbles.

great cut and lemony notes. currently a bit austere, even for me... has all of the elements for a nice bottle of bubbles... needs just a bit more time.

Same tasting notes as Seth below but too much lemon zest and tart on finish for my liking. Although wine is balanced with flavors coming on strong in attack right through finish just too much acid.

Blanc de Blancs smaking (Oslo): Klar, lys strågul. Mild nese med sitrus og mineralske toner. Noe fat. Forholdsvis bløt frukt, med et svakt tropisk anslag. Frisk syre. Fin lengde med noe fat. Bør få litt mer tid til å falle på plass.

Crush's Annual Champagne Gala 2012: Quick note (18 wines in an hour). Bright and tart, with oak and lemon and spice. Very Chardonnay -lemon, oak, nuts and salty extract. Nose - 4/6, Palate - 5/6, Finish - 5/6, Je Ne Sais Quoi - 1/2 = 15/20.

very aromatic, steely mineral. Complex but no great concentration and lacking fruit.
