Domaine vs Negotiant champagne tasting with a couple of ringers: Quality evident already from the nose. Somewhat buttery, rich and fat bouquet. Multilayered, slightly creamy on the palate, excellent mouthfeel. Harmonious and representative of juicy Cramant.

Coteaux Champenois tasting (Riga): Disgorged 29.10.2013, 3,5g dosage. On the darker side of yellow spectrum. A rather intense nose of apples, stewed apples, creamy oak. Elegant oxidative style which to me often means a PN based blend, but here Chardonnay shows itself very well. Very soft yeastiness to it, this might be good with food. (B+)
