Excellent! Clearly Chardonnay, lemon curd, almonds, a berry cream. Palate is big and then ends with a cleansing finish of tart apple, citrus, and saline. So balanced. I really can’t see many people complaining about this one. — 4 years ago

The beautiful pink color is something to behold, but the wine itself is quite impressive as well.
Nose is of strawberry, pear, red cherry, grapefruit, bread crump, and chalky minerals. Gentle and creamy mousse provides an smooth entry, with a medium body that’s broad and penetrating. Lightly spiced and floral finish.
80% Pinot and 20% Chard from 3.6 ha vineyard in the grand cru village of Mailly-Champagne. — 6 years ago

Not a rosé for the faint of heart. Saignée and 100% Grand Cru Pinot Noir this has plenty of red fruit and minerality. Robust and captivating with food. — 8 years ago

1 of the 4 Champagne elements release series (fire, earth, air, and water). The L'air was such an awesome find (current and last release was "O", or water). It is lifted much like clouds ( beautiful sweet brioche toast notes, lemon zest, dried peaches, spiced honey, and and nutmeg. The pallet was creamy and full - full of baked golden apples, créme bruleé, toasted almond, and a bright lasting finish. I think this was an outstanding, and brilliant wine for under $90... yumm mmmm. Happy Valentine's Day! — 9 years ago

A late snack after dining out. Great with chocolate. Champagne only found in certain parts of France. This bottle was a gift in Lyon while visiting with family. — 10 years ago

Primary at the moment. Lemon, high acid, big bubbles. Gets a little more interesting couple hours in creamy/leesy but ultimately not so pleasurable at the moment. Seems like it does have good aging ability and may be better with time. — 4 years ago

Drank 11/8/18. Tasting pour.

Nose of pears and lemon pastry. Palate with green apple liquer, and lemon drop. Not overly sweet with a crisp, refreshing finish.

Save for dessert, or those who prefer a sweet, but well balanced wine — 7 years ago

Wispy and aloft like that blonde girl with the short bob from 8th grade summer camp. But also, with some backbone, like that girl that told Nolan he was a bully and that he couldn't speak to me like that in the fourth grade. #TetherballPolitics. — 10 years ago

Absolutely wonderful. Hautvillers is the birth place of the monk Dom Pierre Pérignon, who was one of the most influential people involved in the upbringing of Champagne, in the late 1600's up til his death in 1715. It is no surprise that even part of the make up of Dom Pérignon includes high quality Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from Hautvillers, as well as many other grand cru and premiere cru sites such as Ay, Bouzy, and Mailly.

Vintage 2011 - aromatic and citrus nose, with tufts of brioche dough - lively bubbles, pear, quince, vanilla cream puff, and a creamy pallet - spark of acidity mid palate, but not angular, helping give more dimension to the wine. Super enjoyable champagne. — 7 years ago

NV. Great clarity with lots of bubbles. On the nose: buttery biscuits and crisp yellow apples. On the palette, juicy yellow apples. Great fizzy body when swished in the mouth. Crisp enough for me, but not as sharp as some other grand crus that I have had (eg., Mailly is very crisp with a little graphite/no biscuit). Long, dry finish that leaves a little bit of biscuit in the mouth. A really lovely grand cru champers that you'll want to throw back. 12% ABV. — 9 years ago

Produced by Mailly, a grand cru village that is also the name of the Domaine just outside of Reims about 15 minutes. This was a special label made for the 2016 Euro Cup, and made as Mailly's house style. Golden color, dough, lemon zest, ripe green apple, anise, and crisp acidity to the finish with a pretty low dosage. Only 11,000 bottle produced. Mailly is most certainly one of my favorite houses, and one of my favorite to visit! — 9 years ago

This is actually the "O" de Mailly brut vintage. Truly refined and delicious. Nose of caramel apple and toffee, brioche.. Palate is so finely tuned, the bubbles light up your mouth - bright, vibrant, a touch of doughiness. Caramel rounding it out. What a treat.. Thanks Mailly for gifting this bottle! — 9 years ago
