Verrier & Fils Brut Fleuron Champagne (Was $100)
Winery Notes- The colour of this Cuvée Fleuron is particularly luminous. It has a yellow-gold colour with very light green reflections and sparkles pleasantly thanks to the presence of extremely fine and numerous bubbles. A beautiful string of foam punctuates the effervescence on the surface. The general presentation, fresh and distinguished, testifies to the quality of the blend. The first nose, although of medium intensity, offers a very fine expression. It delivers aromas of fresh butter, almond, bergamot and thyme. With aeration, it reveals aromas of candied lemons and oranges on a very racy background of minerality. After ten minutes, the finesse of expression doubles with aromas of white flowers and limestone. The "air hold" after twenty minutes shows the stability of the wine as well as its potential. Although still a little discreet, but fine, distinguished and distinguished, this nose is one of the great classics of Champagne. The attack on the palate is lively, with a beautiful effervescence immediately relayed by the freshness of the wine. It is this acidic edge that will set the tempo of the tasting until the finish. The vinosity and slightly warm character of the wine simply accompany the freshness, while the dosage is almost imperceptible. The wine stands upright and seems airy. The effervescence remains creamy until the finish and produces a tender, very caressing texture. The finish is acidic and mineral at the same time. Extremely precise, it gives an impression of purity and ends with a good aromatic length (about six seconds). The wine ends its course with some aromas of lemons, iodine and butter.$49.9014 -
Pierre Paillard Les Parcelles Grand Cru Extra Brut Bouzy Champagne
Winery Notes- Les Parcelles offer plenty of Bouzy character by delivering a wine of depth and creamy richness. Flavors and aromas of toasted bread, pear nectar and honey unfold upon the palate. The finish is all smoke and lees and lingering toastiness. In combination, the wine is generous, complex and multi-faceted with broad appeal.$58.9022
