Clos du Mesnil Brut Blanc de Blancs Champagne Chardonnay

A light nose of lime and stone. A hint of green apple. On the palate lovely fine acidity. This it’s defined and sharp and edgy with great definition and very fine detail. Lovely stuff

Room to go up from here, very expressive but still maturing to the upside it would seem! As much a Krug as this can be, luxurious and deeply complex.

intense and almost tangy. Dried orange rind, dull steel, bread. Mature, delicious and memorable

Beautiful lifted and precise fruit. Limestone, soft lemon fruit, slate, hints of white pepper. Subtle, sophisticated, classy.

The nose comes at you like a firehose filled with citrus, honey, apple and almond. Crazy concentration that causes your cheeks to bulge. Insane level of acidity but it still manages to release flavors of citrus , honey and toast. A palate saturating finish . Given the bear hug structure I’m amazed how giving the palate is.

Had one in the chamber

Happy New Year to all my followers!! 🍾🍾🍾

Golden straw color with aromas of fresh stone and citrus fruits with notes of spice and nutty toast. On the palate flavors of ripe apple, plum and pear with citrus tones and floral notes. Great balance, good bubble bead flow and mousse, lively acidity, long finish ending with crisp toasty mineral tones. Outstanding!
