Georges Laval Cumières Premier Cru Brut Nature L23 - Bio
Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier Dosage: 0g/l vinified in oak for 8 months 18 months of bottle maturity Peter Liem: Laval releases his non-vintage champagne as both a brut and a brut nature: the brut usually has between four and five grams of sugar per liter, while the brut nature is, obviously, non-dosé. In the past, Georges Laval used to make this wine with one-third of each variety, but since 1992 the percentage of chardonnay has been increased, and today Vincent Laval's blends are normally made up of about half chardonnay, although the exact proportions can change according to the base year. In addition, the proportion of reserve wine can vary dramatically: some versions are actually made entirely from a single year, while others can incorporate small amounts of wine from previous years, as Laval sees fit. With Laval's meticulous selection and attention to detail, this is hardly an ordinary non-vintage brut, often showing a level of expression and complexity that can rival other producers' vintage champagnes, and it is also a wine that's well worth keeping in the cellar.

René Geoffroy Lieu-Dit "Les Houtrants complantés" Premier Cru Brut Nature
Pinot Noir, Meunier, Chardonnay, Arbane and Petit Meslier (Field Blend)Dosage 0g/lFrom the single vineyard Les Houtrants in CumièresAged in stainless steelBottle ageing: At least 4 yearsPerpetuum Reserve since 2008, aged under corkNicola MRZ26: Super exciting cuvée, highly aromatic and fresh at the same time, great presence, body, balanced, great creamy roasted notes, a hint of honey, character, strong!Tilman MRZ26: Layered, complex, fresh, each grape variety plays its part, vibrant, fascinating!Tilman AUG24: Rather reserved on the nose and dominated by white grape varieties, slightly floral, citrusy, a hint of grapefruit. Initially extremely fresh on the palate, almost sparkling, with striking acidity, but this quickly integrates into a more mature aroma, a hint of brioche, accompanied by increasing red fruitiness and spice. It has power and pushes across the palate, but in the end it nestles wonderfully and lingers for a long time. Wow! It will certainly be exciting to follow this over a longer period of time (both in the glass and in the bottle).

18% Chardonnay, 18% Meunier, 17% Pinot Blanc, 14% Pinot Noir, 15% Petit Meslier, 10% Pinot Gris, 8% Arbane In the old vineyards one came across almost forgotten vines that used to play a role in the production of champagne. In 2003 the decision was made to plant Fromenteau, Arbanne and Petit Meslier together with the classic grape varieties in one plot. The vineyards lie on loamy and sandy limestone soils, some with flint in the municipality of Chavot-Courcourt. No use of pesticides or other chemical agents. Manual harvest with optimal ripening of the grapes, spontaneous alcoholic fermentation in at least 10 year old barriques from Burgundy for 6 months with regular stirring of the yeast ('bâtonnage'). No malolactic fermentation Then the base wines are fed into a Solera system. 40% reserve wines mature here, to which 60% of the current vintage is added every year. Degogged by hand à la volée Dosage: 4 g/l

We discover aromas of paprika, pepper, some stone fruit and damp forest soil. The mousse is very powerful. It is firm on the palate and shows very light ripe tones and a nice spiciness. On the finish, which, as with the other cuvées, just doesn't want to end, we find a nice, salty freshness.Nicola FEB24: Dark, earthy, full-bodied, still a little closed, salty.Tasting AUG22: Creamy with hints of butter croissant and very animatingly roasty. Initially a little rough and firm, air and time give it more and more drinkability and allow notes of Roiboosh tea, Palo Cortado, chocolate and nuts to shine through. Polarising but highly exciting!

Really strong, the acidity is not as present as in 08, initially a very light touch of honey, but then the beautiful freshness and perfectly integrated acidity fade into the background and culminate in a radiant, sublime finish – wonderful!Tasting FEB20 (About vintage 2010): Extremely complex, perfectly developed, currently still few tertiary aromas (aromas that develop during maturation such as dried fruit, nuts, cocoa, leather, etc.), very lively aromatics, powerful, spice, incredibly sparkling complexity.
