Bollinger RD, Extra Brut Champagne 2008
Hints of marzipan, cooked apricots, honey, fresh bread and citrus on the nose. Very rich and fine on the palate with more citrus fruit joined by sweet plums before a very clean dry finish.
CLOS LE LÉON Blanc de Blancs Extra Brut 1er Cru Dizy Champagne Marc Hébrart 2015
The 2015 Brut Clos Le Léon, 100% Chardonnay from the Le Léon lieu-dit in Dizy, stands apart from the rest of the wines in the range because of its focus on Chardonnay. Here, too, Hébrart has done a commendable job capturing the best 2015 had to offer while avoiding the year's pitfalls. That's a pretty admirable achievement in my book. There is a bit of dryness that appears at the very tail end of the finish, but that is not enough to detract from all the 2015 has to offer, which is, namely, a pretty, structured, ample style of Chardonnay that emphasizes savory and mineral notes more than anything else. Dosage is 3 grams per liter. Disgorged: January 18, 2022.
