MES FAVORITES Vieilles Vignes Extra Brut Mareuil-sur-Aÿ Champagne Marc Hébrart NV
Crafted from old vines of massal selection planting on a south-facing site in Mareuil-sur-Aÿ, the NV Brut Premier Cru Mes Favorites Vieilles Vignes offers up an elegant, complex bouquet of white peach, pear, herbs, lemon oil, pastry and tangerine. Fleshier and deeper than its siblings, it's medium to full-bodied, vinous and charming and has a delicate, vinous core of fruit that leads to a long, saline and slightly anise-inflected finish. This blend of 80% Pinot Noir and 20% Chardonnay (based on the 2019 and 2020 vintages in equal parts) was disgorged with a dosage of 5.5 grams per liter.
TANDEM Brut Fleury-la-Rivière Champagne M & G Heucq NV
The 2014 Extra Brut Tandem is half Chardonnay, half Pinot Meunier from Fleury-la-Rivière and Damery, made in stainless steel and oak. An initial note of lemony butter soon reveals notions of chalk that lend both dimension and a slightly astringent structure that call for food. Fruit fills this structure out generously with notions of plum, but this really is about soil, depth and beautiful length on a slender body with enticing lemony, salty length. Dosage is 5gr/L. Disgorged: March, 2022.
