Les Robarts Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Champagne Chardonnay

Close to perfect. Outstanding wine, a bit of reduction, highly mineral, pear, smooth with small bubbles, long aftertaste, nice pear.

What has always been my favorite cuvée in the Suenen lineup, Les Robarts and 2015 is a perfect match. Aged in a single Tonnellerie Rousseau 20-hl foudre for 10 months before bottling and then 5 years on the lees before disgorgement, it is always so textural, intense and concentrated. There is an impeccable balance of minerality, ripe fruit expression and floral lift with a long saline finish. I also always get a distinct black licorice note in Les Robarts. Excellent.

Super expressive and vibrant. Yellow apple, exotic citrus, chalky minerality, long finish. A pleasure to taste and a bottle that’s a rarity to come by.

Creamy and tiny bubbles, lots of light fruit, slight yeast. Very interesting.

Dry, soft acidity, citrus fruits and flavors of hah and chalk

Tight bubbles, sharp acidity, hints of brioche and rubber. Balanced out by juicy fruit and with a finish that lasts for days and days. Strong alcohol on opening, so open for at least 20 minutes prior to drinking. Great to pair with food.
