Vintage 2009

This warm year started with a cold winter and mild spring temperatures. Early summer was variable but August and September provided ample sunshine and warmth contributing to fine grape health. Pinot Noir especially excelled. Grape harvest, of generally high sugar content yet soft acidity, started on September 8th. 2009 is a year of generous wines that showed well early. An apt example of a vintage of the recent era, in which retaining freshnes...

Written Notes

Beautifully balanced 09 with a fine polished pinotton on the nose, but with a stringent mineral-flavored low-dose flavor. Undoubtedly a beautiful and modern complex wine with great storage potential. More impressive than the white brother at the launch.

A deep rose-pink, with hints of topaz and coral. Mouth-watering aromas of ripe summer fruits are followed by an almost floral finish, and a touch of vanilla and pink peppercorn. This rosé champagne is reminiscent of sweet marshmallow, cotton candy and caramel apples, balanced by nutmeg, dried fig and black cherry. The finish is elegant and smooth.

A difficult start to the year proved concerning, but the persistent rain and cold temperatures reversed in July, and a sunny and hot summer led to grapes with near-perfect acidity. A blend of pinot noir (59%), of which 19% is still red wine, chardonnay (30%) and meunier (11%), this champagne is expressive and fruity. Seven years of cellaring creates balance and complexity.

There is an attractive grilled note to the vanilla laden ripe apricot nose with wine gums, lingonberries, roses and menthol. Super fruity and rather open upon launch. Rich, candy-toned palate of lush fruit and succulence. There is a gentle bite of tannin towards the back palate. Eager to impress but has the structure to age too.
