Is the Brut Reserve the same as Brut La Française, just different names for different regions?
This bottle was disgorged in 2015 but I don’t know the based vintage. A bit more advanced than I expected with light oxidative note. Fine bubbles are persistent but lacking a bit of energy.
Still very delicious.

Clos du Récif Blanc Carignan 2014

Pineapple favors and a really unique wine. Great for being created here. Must have a dedicated winemaker and probably uniquely crazy to try it in such conditions. Bravo! — 9 years ago

Le Cardinale Brut Blanc de Blancs Chardonnay

Light straw in color with a golden hue.

Very aromatic nose of lemons, white flowers, yeast, green apples, grapefruits, minerals, spices, herbs and white pepper.

Light bodied with high acidity and a lot of tiny bubbles.

Dry on the palate with green apples, grapefruits, bread, spices and white pepper.

Medium plus in length with limes and bitter almonds.

A well balanced sparkling wine from France. Enjoyable by itself or with food. Good quality, fruity and refreshing.
I had it at the end of the meal, by itself. This is delightful.

10.5% alcohol by volume.
