Sipping Fine Wine

9.2

Largest house in France, founded 1743 by Claude Moët: Rose, blend of 43% Pinot Noir, 42% Chardonnay, & 15% Meunier, aged 6 months on lees. Following a stormy winter, wet spring and dry summer, surprisingly the wine has great balance. Medium salmon color with aromas of sweet red fruits with notes of floral and bread toast. On the palate flavors of strawberry and raspberry with spice, biscuit and floral notes. Great balance, ok bubble flow and light mousse, lively acidity, medium finish ending with fruit, floral and toasty mineral tones. — 7 days ago

Nicolas Feuillatte “Réserve Exclusive” Brut
Champagne AOC – Champagne – France 🇫🇷

Overview
A classic non-vintage Champagne blend typically composed of Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Chardonnay, crafted in a vibrant and approachable house style. Nicolas Feuillatte continues to deliver a fresher, fruit-forward expression of Champagne that balances energy, accessibility, and refinement exceptionally well.

Aromas & Flavors
Bright orchard fruits, candid citrus, green apple, pear, and subtle stone fruit notes layered with hints of brioche, white flowers, and delicate toasted almonds.

Mouthfeel
Lively mousse with lovely tension and balanced acidity. Refreshing, energetic, and clean while maintaining enough texture to feel complete and satisfying through the finish.

Food Pairings
Excellent with smoked trout, oysters, sushi, fried appetizers, soft cheeses, or light seafood dishes. The pairing with fatty smoked trout submerged in garlic olive oil sounds absolutely spot on, the acidity and freshness would cut beautifully through the richness.

Verdict
A surprisingly well-balanced and highly approachable Champagne that overdelivers in freshness and drinkability. Vibrant, refreshing, and dangerously easy to enjoy glass after glass.

🍷 Did You Know?
Nicolas Feuillatte became one of the largest Champagne brands in the world by working with an enormous cooperative network of growers across Champagne, allowing the house to source fruit from a remarkable diversity of villages and terroirs. — 5 months ago

Clear, medium ruby to garnet in color; on the nose, it's clean with pronounced intensity primary and secondary aromas of black cherries, cassis, and graphite; on the palate, it's dry with high acidity, high tannins, medium alcohol, medium body, and intense primary and secondary flavors of blackberries, black cardamom, and wet gravel with a medium finish. This wine is simple, but balanced. Overall, I rate this wine as good. — 7 months ago

Dark hue and based with Pinot Noir. Black cherry, blackberry, grapefruit citrus, pepper and tea makes a structured taste wanting to be elegant but too much sweetness. It’s a good Champagne but not great — 8 months ago

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of an hour. The 1996 Belle Epoque pours a deep straw color with a persistent mousse. On the nose, the wine is vinous with generous white peaches, raspberries, white tree flower, marzipan and minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long. The 1996 balance of acid and ripeness is so special. This gained energy with air. Drink now through 2036. Disgorged May of 2004. — a month ago
