From Ecueil and Villedommange, planted in 1972 with 20% blocked malo. Stunningly layered front end. So much going on, oak, fudge, pineapple and sea salt. The palate really smashes it out of the park with a gushing level of sweet, fresh fruit alongside a splattering of sea salt and a gorgeously moreish toasty note. The wine delivers a really fascinating, chewy, textural level on the mid palate which adds so much complexity and depth. This is so damn yummy. As it glides back it softens slightly but there is a pert little sweetness that draws you back in.
House Profile
A brand new producer to the scene. The family estate reaches back four generations and sits in the heart of the petite Montagne de Reims with vineyards in Ecueil and Villedommange. He works with Pinot Noir and Chardonnay and focuses on creating vintage specific expressions and vinifies in oak and sandstone amphora. These are unique and beautifully expressive wines that are both academically fascinating and hedonistically gorgeous.
