Guide VERON des Champagnes 2018
(around 27 euros per
bottle)
Elegant and sober
presentation.
Aspect:
Gold, dense and bright.
Refined bubbles.
Fine bead of foam.
Nose:
Sensual, gourmet and
endless harmony.
Radiant aromas of white
flowers, apple, pear and candied citrus fruits delicately iodized, expressions
of the majority of Chardonnay (75%), carefully selected in 2009 in the Premier
Cru terroir of Grauves, in the Côte
des Blancs.
Later, the Pinot Noir (25%),
chosen in the Premier Cru of Bisseuil in the Mountain of Reims, is revealed
with delicious fragrances of red and black fruits (cherry, strawberry,
raspberry, blackcurrant and blackberry), punctuated by delicate spices.
Palate:
Bright liveliness at the
opening, definitely thanks to the selection of the best juices during the
pressing of the grapes.
The mouth then becomes
radiant, sensual and warm, with gentle touches of honey and pastry cream,
barely toasted, results of the patient ageing on laths of the bottles (7 years)
before riddling and disgorgement.
Deep and balanced
finish, thanks to the accurate dosage with 8 g/L of sugar added at
disgorgement, supported by the mineral tension.
Remarkable length on the
palate.
For this Millésime 2009
- Premier Cru, Bruno Charlemagne, œnologist and cellar master of the Champagne
House Bauchet, was able to reveal the full potential of this warm year 2009, to
offer us a Champagne with a joyful presence.
To taste as an aperitif
but especially during meals, with duck aglets, honey sauce and sesame, for
example.
Under the leadership of
Bruno Bauchet and his cousin Florence, fourth generation of wine growers, the
Champagne House Bauchet founded in 1920 by Félicien Bauchet, tries its hardest
to perpetuate the champenois
traditions on it 34 hectares wine estate planted with Chardonnay and Pinot
Noir, between Côte des Blancs, Mountain of Reims and Côte des Bar. A controlled
œnology in the service of quality grapes, harvested by hand, gives birth each
year to around 250,000 bottles of a range of inspired Champagnes.
