Only made in magnums the 2013 Champagne Montagne - Rilly La Montagne Premier Cru saw 10 years on the lees before being disgorged in 2023. A bright straw hue its nose is savory and fresh with salty earth but it?s a bit shy and citrus-driven at this stage offering notes of lemon blossoms white flowers and bread dough. It has a clean silky chalky texture and is pretty inviting and juicy on the finish. This is a fantastic and focused wine although the mousse is a little more subtle and falls to the background of the wine. Drink it over the next 10 or more years.
jdThis is supple with a vinous quality to the harmonious range of black cherry and apricot fruit backed by hints of blood orange peel chalk graphite and fragrant spices. There?s a raw silk?like feel to the mousse and a clean-cut refreshing finish. Pinot Noir Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier. Disgorged October 2023. Drink now through 2038. ?A.N.
