Note di degustazione
Full bottle 1,580 g. 70% Pinot Noir, 30% Chardonnay from their own impeccably grown vineyards. 90% of the wine came from grand and premier cru villages. No malo. Aged for 7 years on lees. Dosage 9 g/l. No disgorgement date given on the bottle . For more background on a bottle of this wine tasted in 2017, see here . Very pretty nose, obviously less concentrated than the Billecart-Salmon, Le Clos St Hilaire 2009 just tasted. But pretty beautifully balanced. Just about retaining some tension despite the ripe vintage. The fruit may just be starting to dry out a bit but there is no shortage of it. Really zesty with citrus-peel character. (JR)

90% grand and premier crus. 70% Pinot Noir, 30% Chardonnay. Aged for seven years on the lees. Disgorged 2017. Dosage 8 g/l. Tasted blind. Pale straw. Very complete and satisfying. Hint of crème pâtissière on the nose. Great tension and a great drink. Already appealing. But perhaps not massively long. Rich! Fun to drink now. 2009? (JR)
Interesting to contrast with the Brut Nature 2009 – this seems much fuller and juicier by comparison, yet the finish is still essentially dry and appetising. Great complexity and still full of energy and youthfulness. (RH)
Estate bottled, so always from same 10 parcels, chosen for their style. Soil is more influential than blend. From 7 ha in Verzenay on chalk and clay. The Pinot Noir is a bit austere with some oyster shells. Plus 3 ha of south-east-facing Chouilly Chardonnay. 70% very cool Pinot Noir and 30% ripe Chardonnay fermented separately. Sometimes one of the 10 blocks is not used. Up to 50% of the Pinot is fermented in large old oak. No malo. They released the 2009 before the 2008. Dosage 8 g/l. Broad, savoury nose – really quite meaty! Lots of depth on the nose. Racy, bone dry and rather majestic on the palate. Big and bold. (JR)
