Pierre Mineral
Cuvée Le Mesnil Sur Oger Brut Champagne Blend
Lean at first but came around with air. Developed nice yeasty bread flavors.

Mar 22nd, 2018This might be my absolute favorite champagne at this price. All about juxtaposition of opposites. Nose is very toasty, oxidative, oak-fermented and opulent overall, let alone for a NV. Palate though is lean, citrus-driven, highly mineral and with a clean albeit not overly complex finish. Highly subjective but this cheapo-Krug gives me all I could ask for at this price
