Degorgement 21 Decembre 2021
Dosage 0g/l
100% Meunier
Pale yellow, nose is floral with a light lime and pear nuances. Perlage medium, moves more in the the vinous direction.
Needs quite some time and aeration to find its stride. An elegant, linear champagne with surprising freshness for a muenier, makes one believe one is drinking chardonnay. Really good and persistent finish. The low sulphur (24mg/l) is noticable and really articulates the aromatcs. I would be very conservative with longer drinking windows. However the champange is so good so why wait.

2017 David Leclapart Champagne Premier Cru Cuvée L'Aphrodisiaque

A deceptive champagne, delicate yet concentrated. Beautiful nose, pears, floral, honey/honeysuckle. We decanted to speed thigs up. Beautiful creamy mouth feel, an oxidative element. The aromas start off fairly straightforward, a clean pear aroma, spring flowers, the compplexity comes, blood oranges, peppery spices, honeysuckle, beeswax. This is not a powerhouse of a champagne, tender, complex, fantastic depth, beautiful.

2018 Davide Carlone Croatina Colline Novaresi

violet, not transparent. Light nose, red fruits. Powerful on the palate, dark, ripe cherries, cherry wood, with time a light bitter garrige note develops. Light acidity and a little bit of tannic resistance. A nice wine for everday drinking.
