Clos des Goisses Champagne Blend
Golden in color. Hints of toast and nuts. Dried apricot and honey but still has some slate and a fine lemon acidity to brighten. A great time to drink this as it has the vibrancy of youth but the complexity of age. Great detail and texture. Lovely

Oct 12th, 2024Intense and steely. A touch of red cherry with great acidity and a healthy dose of salinity. Tightly wound right now but great material here. A huge upside in the future.

Aug 9th, 2024Fresher in the palate than the nose. Some berry light sherried notes but a complex and tasty midpalate. Good

Jul 8th, 2023Pale gold. A haunting nose with biscuit, apricot, a lovely underlying minerality. Resolved. Subtle and delicious. Very good indeed

Feb 3rd, 2023Medium gold color, nice energy in the glass with constant fine bubbles. Toasty nose with notes of quince, breadbox, some citrus and some sweetness. Complex in the mouth, lots going on with good fruit and acidity. Short finish. In a good spot.

Jun 6th, 20222005 vintage. Dégorgement March 2014. Pinot Noir (65%) and Chardonnay (35%). Dosage 4,5 g/l. 19030 bottles produced. Lovely layered Champagne combining creaminess and steely acidity. Beautiful now, but remains very young.

Jan 21st, 2022Very intense and focused. Tightly wound with slate, tingling acidity, light lemon. Not showing much right now but tastes pretty classy

Nov 22nd, 2021Pale gold in color. Some secondary notes coming through… caramel, straw, honey, sweet with a lovely steely undertow. Beautifully poised. Delicious.
