Cuvée St. Vincent Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Champagne Chardonnay

Really fresh, yeasty, with steel, lemons and good definition. A lot of promise. Young

A tight nose of green apple, steel. Still coiled and almost painfully sharp. Limestone, white flowers. Very bright in the midpalate. A bit soon for this and not sure it’ll have the flesh to balance the acidity in the long run. Some serious material here

Disgorged November 2015. Beautiful. Fresh. Perhaps a bit linear at the moment, but this will change with some age - this is a wine built to age! Delicious.

Medium straw with green tinges. Nice persistent perlage and pleasant creaminess. The nose is pure bliss. Caramel with butter, apricots and pears, honey and apples. Fragrant floral notes along with warm brioche and sea spray.

A very stately and baronial wine from Chouilly in the Côte des Blancs. Rich and well developed at this point. The minerality is so good and the acidity just right. Precise and concentrated with all the depth that you would expect. Very lively and powerful.

The palate follows the nose with honey dipped apples and cinnamon. Chalky notes mingle with the electric citrus fruit. Long, long finish that just keeps going on and on. This still hasn’t hit its peak, it has miles to go.

Light and pretty. Apples, citrus and a streak of minerality. Nice fruit
