The color of sun-bleached straw, Mailly Grand Cru L'Intemporelle Brut 2009 offers up a garland of creamy bubbles and lilting notes of white peach, buttered scone, white flowers and smoky minerality. There is slightly more weight on the palate than one might anticipate given the nose, a plunge through discreet layers of pear and stone fruit until at last, a foundation of chalk and limestone shines through. Comprised of 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay. Sample

High toned lemony citrus and somewhat lighter in style. Not a light champagne, but lighter than the MV Krug Grand Cuvee, '03 Dom and '05 Dom we had this evening. Was decent against the stiff competition.

This wine suffered since it was opened along with 03 and 05 Dom and MV Krug. This was simple and one sided. Bright yellow and a hint of lemon. Light on it's feet and drying acidity. Ok.
