Nose: densely rich but elegant. Pleasant hint of oxidation

Palate: elegantly dense and rich. Delicious. — 2 months ago

Popped and poured; enjoyed as a preamble to my birthday dinner. The “La Pucelle” pours a straw color with medium viscosity and a persistent mousse. On the nose, the wine is developing with powerful notes of yellow apple, Bosc pear, raspberry, white peach, brioche some chanterelle mushrooms and a mix of chalky and limestone minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with high acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is forever. Zippy. Divine. A “wow” Champagne that seems to straddle the freshness of the reductive approach and the complexity of the oxidative approach.

Always 100% Pinot Noir, this release of “La Pucelle” is a deft blend of the 2014 and 2012 vintages; 32/68 respectively. Disgorged 2015. Though this is NV, expect a long life. My only regret is drinking this so quickly because this has a bigger story to tell. But I was sharing with 9 other people and holy smokes, it’s already the belle of the ball. Thank you @Lyle Fass for the assist! — 10 months ago

Litt tørr. Fyldig smak preget av fat, bær og røyk/tobakk. Hint av syrlighet. Kjempegod. Nydelig farge. — 3 years ago

Delicious. A medium bodied, lifted Syrah. Very nice acids buoying the bloody, minerally flavors along. Tannins largely resolved. — 7 months ago

Dyp, lilla farge. Merket plutselig at det er lenge siden jeg har drukket en ordentlig dyp og fyldig vin. Flashbacks til Prime Steak House-tider. Frisk, fyldig, ingen bitter ettersmak. — 2 years ago

Very rich and complex nose followed by a complex, long, but somewhat oxidized palate. Its really good but we would have preferred a fresher and more classical approach. We have other bottles and will keep track. — 3 years ago

Nose is a bit more broad and less focused, smokey and brioche and yeast and bread, so fine and very dry and mineral, also the earthiest one. So pure and so sappy. Clean and fresh. Not too complex but so well made and fine mousse, juicy and invigorating and sapid and lots of fruit skins. Classic and champagne for parties. — 2 years ago

Every good home should have a few…

…yeasty buttered popcorn nose, lovely fragrance, more buttery richness on the palate tempered by acid & minerality. Lovely. — 3 years ago
