Note di degustazione
100% chardonnay, harvested with good, natural ripeness, fermented in demi-muid and rested for 10 months on gross lees. This has quite a pithy lemon nose with a fine, chalky edge. The palate has attractive weight and roundness. Really smooth and polished with a warm, grilled-hazelnut finish. Some praline to close, but very fresh and fine. A lot of weight here and a lot of concentration. Great integration, too. Drink now.

Produced exclusively from Chardonnay in an Ecueil lieu-dit better-known for Pinot Noir is the 2015 Extra-Brut Premier Cru Le Mont des Chrétiens, a small cuvée that's vinified in 500-liter barrels, without malolactic, and it was disgorged a few months ago with only two grams per liter dosage—one gram less than Savart's usual three for this bottling. Unwinding in the glass with aromas of lemon curd, white flowers, fresh melon, pastry cream and mandarin, it's medium to full-bodied, deep and chalky, with a tensile profile despite the warm vintage, concluding with a mineral finish. Note that this bottling used to be named Dame de Coeur.
