TASTING NOTE: The NV Brut Grand Cru opens with an intriguing bouquet laced with chalk, gunpowder, white flowers and graphite. A wiry, vibrant Champagne, the Brut Grand Cru walks the tightrope of ripeness, acidity and minerality with notable grace and tons of personality. Hints of lemon, green pear and white peach flesh out as the wine opens up over time. This is a gorgeous and totally intriguing wine. The Brut Grand Cru is 100% Chardonnay, 2009 and 2008 vintages from Cramant, Avize and Oger. Even with 10 grams of dosage and full malolactic fermentation, the style is tense, vibrant and focused from start to finish. Disgorgement date: May 15, 2012. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2018. Score: 93 (Antonio Galloni, erobertparker.com, Nov. 2012)
