Rive Gauche-Rive Droite Grand Cru Extra Brut Champagne Blend 2015

9.4

50/50 Pinot Noir / Chardonnay blend disgorged Oct 2022. This a champagne where the grapes of the blend each had the opportunity to strut their stuff. Scents of almonds , croissant, baked apple and lemons put a smile on my face. On the palate berries show up to fight the citrus. Young , with the acid levels I like. If I had to bet, this is a champagne that will benefit from age and gain in complexity. — a day ago

This had an oxidized style, which I think/think is consistently this producer’s style? It was delicious and precise nonetheless. — a month ago

Vau de Vey Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 2021

Tom Casagrande

9.3

Sticking with the Vau de Vey alliterative format, this is very vibrant and vivacious. Extraordinarily pure ripe apple (with a nod toward peach) fruit on the nose, backed up with very clean limestoney minerality. On the palate, there’s an immediate jolt of very pure fruit, a soft, enveloping texture, and then the mineral notes kick in on the extended finish. Clearly unoaked, and with crisp, integrated acidity. Nicely done. Textbook. — 18 days ago
