A great accompaniment to hearty dishes.

Lukas DEZ22: The nose is dominated by pear aromas, finely backed by herbaceous-spicy notes and fine yeast and wood notes. In the mouth, juicy (cider) apple and pears, supported by light yeast notes, some grapefruit and a fine, present acidity - sophisticated and profound. Tasting FEB20: Creamy richness from the wood, freshness from the tank, darker, racy, earthier, very minerally a bit more vinous than BdB, more serious, racy Tasting FEB19: Accessible with high complexity at the same time, creamy, structure, strong!

René Geoffroy Empreinte Blanc de Noirs 2017

This Champagne bears the hallmark of the Pinot Noir variety from the heart of the Cumières Terroir. We aim to offer the best expression of Pinot Noir from several different plots of the Terroir each year. This Champagne owes its complexity and its substance to the chalky clay soil and then reveals an elegance that typifies the great Terroirs. Soil: clay and chalk, with fragments of flint; a selection of very early-ripening plots above Cumières (Barremonts, Demoiselles, Houtrants) Average age of the vines: 30 years Blending: 100% Pinot Noir Dosage: 3 g/l Geoffroy's Blanc de Noirs matured on the yeast for six years. The varietal Pinot Noir has a subtle character with multilayered aromatics. Highly elegant and fine fruity, powerful presence on the palate, red and yellow raspberries, fresh citrus notes, very fine bubbles, mineral finish with wonderful length. Nicola OKT23 VT16: The current Empreinte has a radiant, powerful character, is very lively and present, with great Pinot expression. VINIFICATION: Harvested and sorted by hand; pressed on a traditional Coquard wine press; only the cuvée (first juice of the pressing) is selected; vinification plot-by-plot to 80% in tuns, demi-muid casks and barrels. Avoidance of malolactic fermentation.TASTING: On the nose, a coated, flattering bouquet of a complex palette of aromas of red fruits; airy, bright and vigorous in the mouth. Boasting great freshness, generous doses of strawberry andredcurrant dictate, punctuated by hints of fragrant flowers, such as peonies. It maintains a beautiful balance with a persistent finish. PAIRING: By virtue of its power, this Champagne Empreinte complements the expressive flavours ofgastronomic cooking remarkably well. Bresse chicken with morel mushrooms, quail with grapesor a fricassee of forest mushrooms harmonise perfectly with this Champagne Empreinte, servedat 11-12° C.

Vauversin Orpair 2019 - 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: 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!

André Heucq HERITAGE Millésime 2014 - Bio

50% Chardonnay, 30% Pinot Noir, 20% Meunier Terroir: Cuisles (Le Bout de la Ville & La Sablonnière) Soil: Limestone & clay (Illit) Vine Age: Chardonnay 30 Years, Meunier 25 Years, Pinot Noir 36 Years Vinification: 50% in Oak Barrels und 50% in Inox-Tanks Partial Malolactic Fermentation 5 Years Bottle Aging Dosage: 4g/l Production: 2500 Fl. 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.

H. Billiot Cuvée Julie 2016

50% Pinot Noir, 50% Chardonnay Dosage: 6g/l 6 month in oak barrels In 1999 the house created its second Tête de Cuvée, named for Laetitia's daughter, Julie. It is created from equal parts Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Usually a single vintage champagne, although it is not marked as such on the label. The barrel-matured cuvée has a distinctive and individual character. Pairs beautifully with many meat dishes, smoked foods, and flavorful dishes — often called a "fireplace champagne."

H. Billiot Cuvée Laetitia

60% Pinot Noir, 40% Chardonnay Chardonnay reserve wines 1983-2012, Pinot Noir from 2013 No malolactische fermentation Vinified im enamel steel tank 48 monath aging on the lees Distinctive cuvée created using a perpetual blending system (solera) since 1980. At this point a blend of more 20 vintages, aged in an enamel tank. A portion is removed regularly, to be refreshed with a portion of the current vintage. This system, similar in style to the solera system, differs only in that the wine is not stored in wooden barrels. The proportions used for the blending remain a closely guarded house secret, although it has been revealed that the share of Chardonnay is slightly ahead of the rest. In 2005 the cuvée grew too voluminous for a single tank, and so a portion was added into a second tank. This 'retanking' provided an interesting experiment into the complexity of this style of maturation: the winemakers suddenly had to deal with a new and unwanted oxidative effect. By 2009 order had been restored to the system and the decision was made to start refreshing the cuvée with a larger proportion of newer, highly ripe vintages. Cuvée Laetitia is the most challenging, complex and distinctive top blend from the Billiot domaine. For advanced champagne drinkers only, especially those who enjoy a well matured wine! Beautiful when paired with a variety of foods, especially a fragrant cheese plate! Moritz OCT22: A cuvée made using the Solera method, which is dominated by a warm-hearted yellow fruit. There is a subtle spiciness in the finish, which gives the cuvée a nice tension.

Tasting OCT21: The 14 is currently still quite closed and very tight, still needs some time. Tasting FEB20: 2013 is once again a real Volupté - exuberant, expressive, creamy, generous, buttery, but with a lot of finesse on the back, beautiful!

Pierre Moncuit Millésime 2012 Extra Brut

100% Chardonnay, Grand Cru About 10 years bottle aging Dosage: 3g/l Tasting Nicola FEB23: Straightforward with creamy generosity, fresh with hints of brioche (will intensify with increasing maturity), very fine, elegant and at the same time powerful and extremely harmonious, balanced. Strong, already gives a lot of pleasure. No wonder it has matured for about 10 years and comes from one of the most sought-after Grand Cru locations in Champagne: le Mesnil sur Oger. Nicola OCT23: Now opens up slowly and gets the beautifully ripe, nutty flavor. Very profound, rich in finesse, elegant, long nutty finish, great combination with the freshness of 2012. Awards: "Special wines of le Point" NOV 23: 19/20 Giuseppe Lauria Editor-in-Chief WEINWISSER APR23: Powerful bouquet with mineral and freshly baked brioche notes. The crystalline delicacy and precision beams you straight to Le Mesnil-sur-Oger. Also very fine and elegant in the mouth, at the same time powerful and with a creamy texture, wonderfully harmonious and balanced. The 10 years of aging on the yeast come into their own here. Extremely stimulating. What a joy. Due to the high acidity typical of Le Mesnil, malolactic fermentation is carried out. The result is precise, linear wines that animate with their finesse-rich freshness and the clear fruit. 18/20-2029
