Jean Velut Témoignage 2015
100% ChardonnayFrom three plots in Montgueux Dosage: 5g/lVinification in inox tank 8 years of bottle ageingTobi JUN26: A distinctly traditional expression with plenty of character. Mealy apple, mandarin, marzipan and nutty notes evoke the style of mature, old-school Champagne. Unpretentious, authentic and pleasantly distinctive. Nicola JAN25: Aged for eight years in the bottle, this allows the extremely elegant fruit to develop in a highly concentrated and captivating way. At the same time, the aging in stainless steel, the freshness of the Chardonnay, and the outstanding terroir ensure such delicacy and finesse that the Temoignage dances on the tongue like silk.

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!

Vauversin Cuvée La Petite Haye
100% Chardonnay Dosage: Brut Nature (0 g/L)Vintage: 2021 Production: 1,244 bottles In the frost-affected 2021 vintage, the Rossignol vineyard suffered severe damage, leaving too few grapes for a separate vinification. Instead, Laurent Vauversin chose to vinify the untouched La Petite Haye parcel on its own, with outstanding results. After several months of ageing in oak, this exceptional single-vineyard Blanc de Blancs was bottled – a cuvée that will only be released as a standalone wine in exceptional vintages. Tilman JUL26: A lovely, elegant and playful nose. On the palate, it has a medium-bodied structure, lovely ripe citrus aromas, firm yet soft acidity, a hint of nuttiness and absolute elegance. Highly recommended!

Jean Velut L'Oubliée
100% Chardonnay Dosage: 4g/l 6-7 years of bottle maturity 50% Vinified in oak A particularly harmonious combination of a large Chardonnay matured in the wood with the freshness and finesse of a classic champagne: ripe fruit, brioche, fine spice from the wood and a long finish with a delicate melt.

Very fresh and complex on the nose. Notes of salt lemon, quince, a bit of menthol, - which over time develops in an After Eight direction, adding a slight chocolatey touch. On the palate, it's round and full-bodied but with a tight/electric acidity. Very long finish. Great drinking flow. Tasting FEB20: Full body, a lot of taste, complexity, slightly oxidative, a lot of yeast, ripe tones, stays in the mouth forever with a lot of nut aroma, herbal spice Tasting APR19: Very wow, monster with a lot of pressure, strong!
