Vinous - Antonio Galloni (92)The NV Grand Cru (base 2022) is 80% Chardonnay and 20% Pinot Noir from Le Mesnil and Puisieulx, respectively. Dense and quite powerful, the 2022 offers quite a bit of textural richness. Tropical overtones add an exotic flair while also recalling the solar intensity of a year marked by heat and drought. I find it a bit reduced and therefore suggest readers open the wine as far in advance as possible. Hints of passion fruit, coconut, hazelnut and dried flowers linger. Dosage is 2.5 grams per liter. Disgorged: October 2025. |
