Note di degustazione
A gorgeous Champagne from this estate, the 2008 Champagne La Vigne Aux Gamins is 100% Chardonnay from a single parcel in Avize that saw 100% malolactic fermentation and 2.4 grams of dosage. This light gold-hued beauty has a classic nose of stone fruits, candied lemons, honeyed minerality, and brioche. Playing in the medium-bodied end of the spectrum, it has a balanced, elegant style, good acidity, and a layered, lengthy finish that keeps you coming back to the glass. It should drink nicely for another 15 years from cold cellars.

Striking stencilled front label rather reminiscent of an old madeira bottle. 100% old-vine Chardonnay from Avize. 100% malo. Disgorged September 2020. Dosage just 2.4 g/l. 3,745 bottles produced. Marked, rather glamorous autolysis on the nose. Fine bead and lots of citrus zestiness. Bracing but not austere. Certainly tense rather than broad but this would make a fine aperitif. Impressive length. (JR)
