"Dans un Premier Temps..." Vignerons Brut Chardonnay
Great balance, texture, and complexity at a really nice price point. There’s a healthy dose of autolytic, earthy, and spice elements here that seem to be associated with the solera-reserve wines utilized. Brisk and chalky, very refreshing and enjoyable. 50 CH 30 PN 20 PM, 70% 2014 30% Reserve solera started in 1986, 5g/L dosage, 5/2017 disgorgement

Feb 9th, 2017Ripe pears, toast, with good acidity and saline qualities. Tons of fun and this beats the bottle I had a couple of years back by a good mile!

Oct 18th, 2019Fresh and crisp but there’s a bit of “bitterness “ on the finish that takes some time to blow off. Clean on the palate with the right amount of toasty-ness.

Apr 28th, 2018Made in a traditional Brut style, Adrien intends this cuvée as representation of all of three of the villages he works with - Sezanne, Cuis, and Avenay Val d'Or. The blend is 50% Chardonnay from Sezanne, 30% Pinot Noir from Avenay Val d'Or and 20% old vine Pinot Meunier from Cuis. The base vintage makes up 70% of the blend with the remainder a perpetual reserve going back to 1986. Dosage is 6g/L.
Porad drsnejsi, trochu doslaďka.
