Citrus and tropical fruit, lychee is prominent, toasty brioche, cream. Fine bubbles, light body, but textured. Lively and exciting from start to finish. — 2 years ago

9.1

Domaine Dhont-Grellet champagne extra brut from the village of Cramant. Perhaps also lower atmospheres of pressure?
Fermented in barrel, full malo, 70% 2017 harvest, 30% reserve perpetual since 1986. Aged about 2 years on lees. 1 g/l dosage.
Silky, creamy style with a rich buttery feeling in the palate. This seems like a good choice for rich shellfish dishes. — 2 years ago

Base champagne of Dhondt Grellet. I get a beautiful balanced nose suggesting a very high end champagne. On the palate I get that vinous quality of still wine popping through. Brioche, yeasty, bread. The bubbles are a bit course and edging towards harshness and that brings me to the rest of the palate where there is plenty acidity but also a bit thin.

A base champagne that is definitely punching above it's weight!

2019 base vintage. — 2 months ago
