LARMANDIER-BERNIER 'Latitude' Extra Brut NV

100% Chardonnay which all come from the same latitude, south of Vertus. Grapes picked as ripe as possible. Pressed, lightly clarified and then into wooden vats and casks. Spontaneous fermentation and natural malo. Aged on lees for the first year without fining or filtering. 40% of this wine comes from the estate's perpetual reserve started in 2004. Sur lattes for at least two years. Each bottle is disgorged by hand. <br> Smells like lemon cheesecake. There is a seductive cultured-sour-cream richness made piquant by citron fragrance and the piercing, bitter-lifted-oil-perfume of pomelo. Acacia honey daubed onto every small, firm bubble and so the wine feels incredibly silky smooth with a smoke-and-mirrors sense of weight and weightlessness.

PERNAND VERGELESSES 1er Cru Sous Frétille Domaine Berthelemot 2022

15% new oak. Cask sample. Open and scented, creamy and with a hint of vanilla sweetness. Lovely mealy richness in the mouth to balance the fresh citrus fruit, and a stony/mineral aftertaste. (JH)
