(NV MOUTARD Grande Cuvee Brut) Weekend/Champagne Dear Friends, A few weekend wines of note – all will arrive in a few days – please check OARS for pick up after April 1st. Have a great weekend everyone – - Jon Rimmerman *************************************** NV Moutard Champagne Brut “Grande Cuvee” 750ml - There are palates in Champagne that believe this is the single finest NV example in the range. That is quite subjective but there’s no doubt Moutard is trying to over-deliver with the Grande Cuvee. If you’re looking for a no-fuss example to enjoy ice cold this summer, this contender for best price/value wine in Champagne would be a welcome addition to your picnic or afternoon on the Sunday terrace. Compare at up to $40+: 2007 Georges Descombes Morgon - (This is not Duboeuf “Jean Descombes” Morgon – compare at $15-20+) This exceedingly complex wine is proof-positive that Burgundy need not cost a fortune to entice. Granted, this is Gamay Noir (not Pinot Noir), but the layers of delicate nuance and minerality are admirable. A steal of a deal – if we run out Wine Library has a parcel at $14.99-15.99: 2007 Filliatreau Saumur-Champigny “La Grande Vignolle” - If you have the patience to wait another year or so, this eccentric and intellectual example of Cabernet Franc has already started to evolve and it should emerge as something very interesting indeed. If you read the verbiage below, you will understand...
