André Clouet

Millésime Brut Champagne Blend 2013

9.3

Light straw with a plethora of tiny bubbles. Distinctively Clouet from beginning to end. An attractive bouquet of vanilla and smoke, with red apples and butter. Plenty of dried cherries and oak to go with the citrus and floral aromas.

Powerful and direct with finesse and character, that’s the Clouet trademark. Equal parts Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from Bouzy. Nice, smooth acidity and a more than generous nature, as always. The palate is delectable with salted butter, citrus, and ripe red fruits. Yet another hit for one of my favorite producers.

Lively little bubbles! Old gold in color, has that typical yeasty sort of funky in a positive way champagne scent. I think I can also smell honey and maybe lemon. Dry yeasty sort of old world luxurious flavor. Delicious and a nice example of what champagne is supposed to be. — 2 months ago

After a month off of any type of ethanol content to prepare for a marathon that I ran and finished earlier today, it's about time for me to come back on here. My first entry post break and race is a celebration post. And what better way to celebrate than with a proper bubbly?
The nose shows some reductive notes of sour apple, along with green apple, brioche and croissant. It's very inviting. The palate is very dry and acid driven but shows again these superb notes of croissant and some lemon curd too. The bubbles are subtle and complement the pastry notes very well. The finish is fresh, lemony, zingy and quite long. It's really a great champagne and it's been a while since I last tasted such a quality one. Great stuff and perfect way of celebrating a sport achievement ✌🏻 — 7 days ago

Every time I drink Egly I wonder why I bother buying any other champagne. All through the line they are stunners.

2021 DG. A bit of funk, honeyed, hazlenuts, green apple, fabulous vinous texture, acid à point. Glorious. — 2 months ago
