Comtes de Champagne Brut Blanc de Blancs Champagne Chardonnay 2006

Constant notes, this one has a more muted nose at first then opens up to a mineral stony profile, light pastry aromas, honey, buttery slightly and very Chardonnay like. A very smooth, and creamy palate with great tension, vivid and intense, yet finesse, class and elegance are there, very small and tight bubbles, long delicious finish with that irresistible mixture of energy and class. 93-94

Notes constantes, nez plus discret au départ que la dernière bue il y a quelques semaines mais le nez ouvre sur une belle minéralité, brioché et très Chardo en style, fruits blancs, un peu miellé et beurré. Bouche crémeuse avec une acidité appuyée tout en étant d’une finesse, d’une classe et délicatesse indéniable, bulles très fines tout en étant delicatement crémeuses, une finale assez longue avec cette énergie et classe irrésistible. 93-94

Domaine des Fines Caillottes Pouilly-Fumé Sauvignon Blanc 2022

Presented double-blind at Tasting Group. In the glass the wine is a pale straw color with a silver rim. Medium viscosity with no signs of particles or gas. On the nose, the wine is very expressive or grapefruit, lime, and lemons withs some grassy, herbal qualities, yellow flowers and flint minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with acidity that I perceive as high. Confirming the notes from the nose. Finish is medium+. I don’t get any obvious use of oak…it would have to be extremely judicious if at all. Initial conclusion: this could be Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, Chenin Blanc, Albariño or maybe even Chardonnay from France, California, Germany or Spain. But I don’t get the petrol thing I associate with Riesling and it’s missing the white flowers and lanolin for Chenin. Not enough salinity for Albariño and the acid just seems too high for Chardonnay, even from Chablis. I think the structure is the key here. Final conclusion, this is a Sauvignon Blanc, from France, from the Loire, from Sancerre, 2020 vintage. Welp…at least I was in the right ballpark! This was a wine full of energy and one I would be happy to drink again. Drink now to enjoy its lovely fruit and acid. As a side note, it’s becoming harder and harder to find distinction from Old World and New World (which is probably why the CMS has stopped using the terms altogether), particularly with Sauvignon Blanc. A combination of climate change and winemaking has certainly blurred the lines.

Rosé De Saignée 1er Cru Brut Champagne Pinot Meunier Pinot Noir

Des arômes de fraise, de canneberges se révèlent sur ce Champagne expressif et frais. Belle mousse avec des bulles asset fines, pas trop vineux pour un PN et avec une belle acidité assez vive, finale de longueur moyenne un brin acidulée avec cette légère rétro de canneberges. 89-90

Strawberries and cranberries on this expressive and fresh Champagne, nice mousse and fairly tight bubbles, not too vinous for a PN, medium length finish with slightly tart cranberries coming back.
