Best Couteaux Champagnois I've had but not surprised from Egly. Nose like Gevrey but texture of Chambolle.

Was jaded and doubting this would be delicious, was very wrong. Not incomplete as often these wines can be. Also quite open and drinkable. Savory black cherry, no hints of underripeness. Quite special!

For sure one of the best pinots from champagne. Overall disappointing, light with a strange fizz. Good wine not worth the 100 dollars I paid for the bottle.
