I’m at 92-93 here, but this is absolutely going to improve. I should have bought more than just a couple!
Paul Dethune champagnes are quickly becoming a favorite of mine. This cuvée is 50/50 (Pinot noir/chard), with 30% coming from their Solera dating back to the 70s.
I’ve said that I feel Petit & Bajan are the equivalent of Bollinger Special Cuvée in grower form, but I stand corrected. THIS is Bolly SC with a grower champagne vibe. Gold in the glass. Aromatics of lemon cream, lemon croissant, golden raspberries, and honeycomb. On the palate, it has the toasted Bolly profile but it’s dialed back a touch…feels more focused. Less expansive, but there’s added power here. Beautifully balanced with the sweet (the fruit, not the dosage) and savory (honey roasted cashews, sea salt). Imagine Bolly SC and a CHeidsieck Blanc de Blanc…you’ve got this. Loved it. — a month ago

Why don’t we all drink more Aligoté? Because they’re not all like this. A fun and very pretty wine. Initial aromas of honeysuckle and lemon zest. Continues to blossom with grassy and floral notes. Sharp acidity and fantastic structure. Fresh and alive though very, very young. Salinity and precision on the palate with green apples and moist stone. Not Chablis but not trying to be either. It’s own thing and rather nice. — 7 days ago
