Brut Réserve Vieilles Vignes Cuvée Non Filtrée Champagne Blend

2021 base with a larger than usual addition of reserve wines. Seemed to have more richness and depth than previous iterations. Worth seeking out! — a month ago

That's a serious rosé. Pretty early to have a contender for fave of the season. — 4 years ago

Dominique Laurent

Beaune Vieilles Vignes Pinot Noir

J. Kim
8.9

Hint of smokey rubberiness that sometimes afflicts many of Laurent’s wines. But it is loaded with a material and holding back a lot in reserve. Seems less fussy than before and purer and more transparent as well. — 4 years ago

Dhondt-Grellet

Vieilles Vignes Cramant Extra Brut Champagne Grand Cru Chardonnay

Andrew Holod
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.
