A. Margaine Champagne Brut Cuvee Traditionelle 750ml


A. Margaine Champagne Brut Cuvee Traditionelle 750ml
Always a complex assemblage: 35% 2003, and 65% of these vintages in roughly equal proportions: ‘02, ‘01, ‘00, ‘99 and ‘96! Disgorged 1/06 and bottled with 7g.l. RS; violet and hyacinth aromas make you think of Riesling (as these wines often do), but the palate is all apples and Rainier cherries with a chalk-powder sprinkle; wonderfully silky and generous, refined and accurate. A virtual Blanc de Blancs; 90% Chardonnay to 10% Pinot Noir.
