Note di degustazione
The 2019 Blanc de Blancs Heurtebise is a single-vineyard expression that spotlights the singular terroir of Merfy, rooted in sandy soils with components of silt and clay, resting atop sandstone. Produced from Chardonnay vines planted between 1980 and 1985, it is aged entirely in 228-liter barrels—predominantly from Cavin—with a modest proportion of new oak. Disgorged in April 2024 with a dosage of 2.4 grams per liter, it reveals a bouquet of white blossoms, lemon zest and freshly baked brioche. The palate is medium-bodied, incisive and poised, with laser-like acidity that carries a core of pristine fruit to a long, mineral finish. It is the most linear and tensile wine in the range, even more so than the Chemin de Reims from the same vintage.

Fragrant citrus peel, peach and jasmine aromas here, with gingery and vanilla-bean spice character, too. Touches of rose and orange, too. It’s medium-bodied and very expressive, with fine bubbles and a dry, spicy finish. 100% chardonnay. Disgorged in 2024. Dosage 2.4g/L. Drink now.
The 2019 Extra-Brut Heurtebise is a rich, sumptuous wine. Lifted floral notes are a reminder this parcel is planted on sand, but the wine's textural richness and overall presence are also notable. Citrus confit, white flowers, tangerine peel and spice build effortlessly through to the creamy, resonant finish. Sumptuous and alluring, the 2019 is extremely easy to like and drink, even in the early going. Dosage is 2.4 grams per liter. Disgorged: January 2024.
