Yann Alexandre Blanches Terres Rose Base 2018 NV.
This rosé is a composition of Chardonnay from the lieu-dit Les Blanches Terres in Coulommes-la-Montagne and Pinot Noir from the lieu-dit Saint Lié in the village Villedommange. 94% of the final blend is Chardonnay which is primarily fermented in stainless steel where it is allowed to go through full malolactic conversion, while 15% is vinified in oak without malolactic. The wine is aged approximately 4 months in stainless and blended with 60% reserve wine and combined with 6% Pinot Noir as red wine. The wine then spends 20 months on lees before being disgorged. Pretty much a “Blanc de Blancs Rose!”

“From Montagne de Reims. 100% premier cru from two single vineyards: Chardonnay (94%) from Les Blanches Terres and Pinot Noir (6%) from Saint Lié. 15% barrel fermented and no malolactic fermentation. Aged on the lees for 22 months. Base wine is 2018 plus 60% reserve wine. 4,024 bottles produced. Disgorged 21 December 2020. Dosage 6 g/l.
Tasted blind. Pale red, saignée appearance. Smells like a red wine! Does not conform to a stereotype of a pink sparkling wine. Lightly bitter with lots of fruit. Gone out on a limb. A good drink!
Drink 2021 – 2028”

Dhondt-Grellet Dans Un Premier Temps Extra Brut Base 2018 NV
The intention is to be an expression of all 6 hectares of the House’s holdings spread across Sezanne, Cuis, and Avenay val d’Or. The Chardonnay receives 50% fermentation in barrel, and the rest in tank. 30% of the Pinot Noir and 20% of the Meunier is tank-fermented.
Dhondt Grellet’s focus on biodynamic farming has translated into vivid champagnes from great parcels across the Côte des Blancs.
92/100 @wgfkelley
“Disgorged in January 2020 with three grams per liter dosage, the NV Extra-Brut Dans un Premier Temps (2018) is excellent, bursting with aromas of peach, citrus oil, white flowers, fresh bread and stone fruit. Medium to full-bodied, ample and layered, with a demonstrative core of fruit and succulent acids, it’s vinous and enveloping, drinking especially well out of the gates.”

New addition - Vilmart & Cie is a grower champagne and family home that originated in 1890 by Désiré Vilmart. Housed in the heart of the Montagne de Reims a few kilometres south of Reims in the village Rilly la Montagne.
Wine critic Tom Stevenson described Vilmart as “the greatest grower Champagne I know.”
93/100 @antoniogalloni
“The 2016 Brut Grand Cellier d' Or is a gorgeous, ethereal Champagne that is all about grace. Floral and citrus notes abound in a weightless, translucent Champagne that has so much to offer. The 2016 is not an obvious wine at all, but rather a Champagne that dazzles with nuance and understatement. I loved it. Disgorged: July, 2020.”
