Marchand & Tawse, Clos Saint Denis Vintage:2012 cherry-vanilla

cherry-vanilla

I was mildly surprised to find a bit of reduction in the bottled version though not enough to completely hide the otherwise ripe

underbrush and an attractive stoniness that transfers over to the nicely rich flavors that possess slightly better volume on the sappy and long flavors that culminate in a punchy and rather delicate finish

This is a beautifully mature Champagne

with concentration and freshnesswhat you're aiming for in a wine like this where pure power might be too much

Marchand & Tawse, Clos Saint Denis Vintage:2012 cherry-vanillaA gorgeous and ultra elegant nose features violets, essence of red currant and spice notes that are trimmed in a deft touch of wood. The lilting and equally refined middle weight flavors possess both lovely detail and energy before concluding in a sappy, balanced and harmonious finish that offers moderately good depth and length.
