Pur Mennier Brut Nature Champagne Blend

Killer nose of creamy red fruits, palate is deep with minerals, mild acidity and ripe red fruits, all in a white wine. So lovely, oak aging does wonders for this grape.

Last time we had this bottle was in the cellar of C-L, no finer hosts. 100% Pinot Meunièr (2014 fruit), so technically a Blanc de Noirs. This bottle was sealed on 31 May 2015 and bottle number 199 of 1220 produced.

Relaxing by a fire in the chimenea tonight, our first frost was finally this morning. Nice and cool tonight, the warmth of the flames is satisfying.

Martin Fontaine Brut Nature Champagne Chardonnay

Rather simple. Enjoyable enough to drink, but not a lot of depth or complexity. Has oxidative character seemingly due to less SO2 being used. — 6 years ago

Tarlant

Zero Brut Nature Champagne Blend

Briny nose, also yeasty but not toasty, more of an austere yeast. So mineral and saline. Concentrated lemon on the palate, with more exotic citrus zest accents. Really high pitched and exciting. Needs oysters. — 3 years ago

Gran Reserva Brut Nature Terrers Xarello Macabeo Parellada 2013

Excited to drink this producer. Almond croissant with a stewed fruit glaze on the nose. Palette is like you drank briney sea water then popped a jumbo marshmallow and some Fuji apple. Some aged manchego in there somewhere. Drinking quite well right now, nothing wham bam out of control about it but damn good. — 4 years ago

Domaine Dandelion

Hautes-Côtes Nature Pinot Noir 2018

This is evolving nicely. Tart cherries, rock like flavor, forest, a bit of spice, flowers. Really lingers on the palate. Still has a lot of time in the bottle. — 3 years ago

Christophe Mignon

Brut Nature Champagne Pinot Meunier

Really enjoyed the aroma of this one; vacillated between a sweet yeasty smell to almost fungi/cheese smell. Definitely put in white wine glass or could be too bitter. — 5 years ago

Agusti Torello Mata

Cava Kripta Gran Reserva Brut Nature Macabeo-Xarel-lo-Parellada

A wonderful Cava I brought to Italy from Spain. Note the egg-shaped bottle, very artsy. Aromas of sugar biscuit, green olive, and almond. Very fine, delicate bubbles. A bitter aftertaste that reminds me of Vernaccia di San Gimignano or a dry Sherry. Quite refined and elegant. Great start for New Year’s Eve! — 6 years ago
