🏰 The A. Lamblot Les Cotes Cheries 2022 is a distinctive Champagne, crafted from 100% Meunier grapes sourced from a single parcel of 1984 plantings in the sandy lieu-dit of Gueux, facing south/south-east. This grower Champagne is a testament to meticulous winemaking, undergoing natural yeast fermentation in both amphorae (jarres) and oak barrels. It is unfined, unfiltered, and produced with zero dosage, emphasizing purity and terroir expression. The wine is aged for over 24 months on its lees, with riddling done by hand and disgorgement following the lunar calendar. Alexandre Lamblot's choice to bottle with 22 grams of sugar, slightly less than the typical 24 grams, results in a softer, finer mousse. Tasting notes reveal a fleshy and ample Champagne with gorgeous fruit concentration and precision. On the nose, expect mirabelle plum, light honey, and a smoky hint. The palate is ample and fleshy, supported by mineral tension and a beautiful final bitterness, presenting as a living and precise Champagne of great elegance, balancing ripe fruit and chalk. 【A real standout, offering gorgeous fruit concentration and precision from a single Meunier parcel with zero dosage】. 🍴 This elegant Champagne is a superb match for a variety of dishes.
