Cuvée Charlie Marsannay Blanc Chardonnay 2022

This scratches that white burgundy itch at a relative bargain price (for white burgundy). Love the just-ripe peachy fruit on the nose. Reminds me of Puligny to the south. Floral notes and wet, bright limestone. In the mouth it’s balanced but with nice weight. Lots of crisp orchard fruit/apple, nice acids, and a slight bitterish note in the fairly long finish. Again, nice value here. — 10 days ago

Charles Heidsieck

Brut Réserve Champagne Blend

Charles "Champagne Charlie" Heidsieck was one of the first to recognize the importance of the U.S. as a Champagne market. A blend with 40% reserve wines, fruit and floral bouquet, with orange blossom & yeasty notes. Fine bubbles, nice mousse, showing quality. Outstanding rich flavors of apple, pear and biscuit, well balanced, good structure, creamy. Long finish ending with toasty nutty oak & mineral notes. — a year ago

H. Klopp Vineyard Chardonnay 2021

Nose: closed on open. lovely. White flowers.

Palate: very mineral. Lemon peel. Perfect lemon. A hint of sweet lemon. Not fruit forward. Saline. As this opens, village Puligny. Very well made. Lacks density and complexity to be great.

En Montceau Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Chardonnay 2020

It just tastes better in France. All stones at first; near the end of the bottle and warming up before the fruit showed up. — 4 months ago

Charles Heidsieck

Rosé Réserve Brut Champagne Blend

Cheers to Champagne Charlie!

This is the Charles Heidsieck Brut Rosé Réserve. It’s made with a blend of Pinot Noir (40%), Chardonnay (35%), Meunier (25%). It’s a non-vintage wine that cellared in Charles Heidsieck’s famous chalk cellars (crayeres) for 4+ years.

It’s a beautiful salmon hue in appearance and offers complex aromas and flavors including strawberry shortcake, lemon curd, fresh raspberry, baked peach, pie crust, brioche, cream, nougat, toasted almond croissant, candied nuts, and dried pink rose petals. On the palate is a fine and creamy mousse and vibrant acidity.

It’s positively delicious, complex, and balanced. A non-vintage that drinks like a vintage champagne. Yum!
