A stressful week came to a close with disappointing news. This wonderful champagnes consoles. Dark yellow color. Smells and tastes more mature than I expected from a 2012. This has a long finish and the closest I can describe the taste would be a Selosse. Not a champagne for everyone’s taste but I am glad I bought it and opened it tonight. Makes me feel much better — 3 years ago

2003 vintage. Generally speaking not a very interesting vintage ( too hot for Pinot Noir), but this is a very good effort. Not sure for how many years all the grapes of this 4 ha Premier Cru vineyard were sold to Jadot, but at least in this vintage the label says " monopole". In 2017 the Clos was sold to the American owners of Leclerc-Briant Champagne and ever since the 2018 vintage it is sold under the "Domaine de la Commaraine" estate name. Attractive nose with strawberry jam, spices and dried flowers. Slightly jammy fruit (but not cooked), with good balancing acidity and a charming personality. Abv. 13,5% — 2 years ago
