Vauversin Orpair 2021 - Bio
100% Chardonnay Dosage: 3g/l 3 years of bottle maturity 12 months aging in used oak All champagnes have been vinified with indigenous yeasts and with no filtration. They are low in sulfite (less than 35mg/l)! Riddling by hand in natural cellar! Tilman FEB24 (vintage 2019): Floral-frischer Beginn, dann mit leicht oxidativer Aromatik immer komplexer werdend, mit schönem Zug und würzigem Finish. Tasting JUL21 (base 2016): powerful and spicy, lots of power, nice use of wood, expressive, exotic aromas, open aromatics but not too ripe, subtle spiciness, long finish. Tasting FEB20 (base 2014): 2014 has less acid than 2013, which makes it a bit more accessible, the wood aroma is beautiful, extremely long, nutty finish. High tension, like a whole feature film so complex, super nice spiciness - but rather delicate spiciness, prancing length. Tasting JUN19 (based on 2013): very independent, ethereal, floral, calm but resounding. Clean and gentle, yet powerful. Aromas cannot be grasped, with every sip of new flavors, always extremely harmonious. Light-footed, very long, somehow poetic. The acid is medium-strong, but still gripping, then melts off nicely, so that you catch up with the next sip. If he breathes longer he gets very delicate, extremely charming notes of milk candy - addictive potential!

Vincent Bliard Libre comme l’air Rosé - Bio
75% Chardonnay, 20% Pinot Noir, 5% Meunier (of which 7% red wine)Dosage 4g/litreChardonnay, Pinot Noir & Meunier from Hautvillers (Premier Cru)Matured in wooden barrels for 1 yearBottle ageing: at least 4 yearsNo fining, no filtration, minimal addition of sulphurNicola Oct25: Generous, lavish fruit aromas that remain wonderfully light thanks to the Chardonnay influence; minimal funky aromas make it exciting.Nicola FEB24: Beautifully charming and, as always with this cuvée, a unique flavour, black plum, generous yet light-footed aromas.Moritz FEB24: A very nice blend of raspberry, plum and a hint of mint on the nose. On the palate, the mint is more pronounced and the fruit is more cherry-like with a slight malolactic fermentation. This creates a charming creaminess. However, the taut acidity cuts through the creamy, round body like a butter knife and gives the champagne more dimension and additional freshness.Nicola OKT22: Berry, earthy, beautiful tannins, rich, food companionMoritz OKT22: Chardonnay-heavy rosé from a single vintage and aged for at least 1 year in wood is a rarity. But the Libre comme l'air is exactly that. Spicy and playful with a light red fruit flavour and a taut acidity. A truly complex rosé that leaves you wanting more.

Andreas SEP23: So much champagne for comparatively little money! And then you can buy it with a clear organic conscience because it comes from "good" agriculture from a biodynamic producer from the Marne. Juicy, for André with 4 grams almost highly dosed and yet super balanced, fine wholemeal toast, quince bread, fine wood spice, good pressure and great length, enormously drinkable. With his Millésime 2014, "Mr. Meunier" Heucq demonstrates perfectly what wonderful champagnes can be made with experience and healthy grapes, even in years that are not so easy. Moritz AUG22: A wonderfull aged Champagne with super fine perlage. Right after opening you'll find aromatics that remind of morning dew in the woods. With some time and airation armoas of caramelized red apples and delicate brioche notes develope. This complex Champagne developes, with some time and air, to a diverse pleasurable experience. Well suited as food companion for dishes with roasting flavours.

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!

Average age of the vines: 30 Years Vinification: 70% in enamel tank, 30% in old barrel, 75% with malolactic fermentation, matured for up to 7 years on the lees Domaine's entry level champagne, one that nonetheless displays a challenging complexity. Crisp & fruity (primarily apple) and nuanced. 60% Pinot Noir, 40% Chardonnay, Dosage 6g/l Nicola FEB24: Ultra strong, complex, slightly matured flavors but spot on, extremely long, multi-layered, also a bit of a stony element which makes it even more interesting. Ultra balanced. Moritz FEB24: Even with the "entry-level" cuvée, one can feel the elegance and complexity that Eric skillfully wants to encapsulate in the bottle. Everything is very delicate, not too loud, yet very present. A harmony of marzipan, roasted nuts, chalk, and a light smokiness greets the senses. The palate brings out more of the fresh, chalky flavors, which suits the cuvée extremely well. An extremely long finish ties the whole package together. What is sold as an entry-level at Maison Rodez, without overstepping, could be the pinnacle in many other houses. Tasting FEB20: Very strong, made another leap forward since tasting a year ago, very dense, great Tasting JUL21: very complex release, very nutty, very layered, browned apple, slight ripeness, cool, great depth (Eric's language for minerality, chalk contact of vines, mouthfeel).
