Good, but not my favorite. Very different from the Ruinart we had before. Much darker in color and significantly more tannins. — 2 months ago

Needs an hour to open.

Nose is elegant brioche. A hint of lemon perfume.

Palate is mineral. Elegant richness. A hint of salt. Lemon oil. Quite good.

🍇 100% Chardonnay | Chablis AOC, Burgundy, France

A true gem of a wine of pure, mineral-driven Chardonnay from the iconic Kimmeridgian limestone-clay soils that define the northernmost vineyards of Burgundy, brushing the southern edge of Champagne.

On the nose:
Delicately floral with a streak of flinty minerality and lifted citrus notes. Pure, focused, and elegant.

On the palate:
Absolutely dry and crisp, with vibrant acidity and a medium-bodied mouthfeel. Zesty lemon, chalky tension, and just a whisper of orange peel at the very back end of the palate. Finishes with salinity and length that’s tailor-made for oysters and seafood.

Mouthfeel overall:
Fresh, lively, and laser-focused, this is Chablis at its finest, clean, precise, and impossibly drinkable. The kind of wine that reminds you why Chardonnay rules the white wine world.

Pairing tip:
✨ The ultimate oyster wine, though equally brilliant with sushi, scallops, or a lemon-butter sole.

Can’t have enough of it, and you won’t want to either. Cheers! 🦪🍋🥂 — 3 months ago

Drinking well. Slightly sherry / honey but less than you’d expect for the age. Solid bubble but lacks the complexity of its pairing — 3 years ago

ginger candy, nougat, rye bread, and faint notes of numerous tropical & citrus fruits w apples & pears

palate as above but add minerality, limestone chalkiness, and tonic ~ as well as golden sultanas to the broad fruit profile

very forward and focused ~ slight mid palate ~ good length ~ delivers a wealth of complexity in a compact space — 3 years ago

The Duval-Leroy Brut Réserve Champagne displays precise aromas of yellow apple, fresh lemon, brioche and roasted almonds. Medium to full-bodied with firm acidity and a long finish, this is a very crisp and lively Champagne. Drink now. — 3 years ago
