Mise en place - Part 2: Quartet
These were the second parts of the "mise en place" I did 2 weeks ago.
I opened them for a private lunch that weekend, and they showed beautifully.
Champagne Jacques Selosse VO "Version Originale" Blanc de Blancs Extra-Brut NV (disgorged in Nov 2019)
It delivered charm, character, intensity, and concentration with great finesse and beautiful minerality. In my book, it is a classic!
Champagne Salon Cuvee 'S' Le Mesnil Blanc de Blancs Brut 1996
Probably the most prestigious champagne house, Salon possesses unmatched uniqueness. Despite its age, it was gorgeously fresh and mineral, layered, complex, and long. Amazing!
Jean-Claude Ramonet Bienvenues Batard-Montrachet Grand Cru Burgundy 2018
Ramonet is one of my favorite producers in the Chassagne / Puligny area. The wines, with their zesty fruits, great freshness, and high minerality, have a sense of purity. And it was the case for this Bienvenues Batard Montrachet, a pure delight!
Domaine Anne Gros Richebourg Grand Cru Burgundy 2020
It is a sacrilege to open such a young wine, yet I could not resist. It was rich, complex, and layered, offering generously ripe dark and red fruits. The palate was powerful and ample yet elegant and sophisticated, balanced and velvety, expanding beautifully towards the seamless finish. Although approachable now, it will reward those with the patience to wait for it. What a magnificent wine!
Cheers! Santé!
Dom
