crisp but tremendously complex on the palate

this reflects the top wine's chiseled structure and firm tannins

the fermentation continues for three weeks in cement cuves at a temperature controlled 18 degrees Celsius

This needs four or five years to come around but already so fine

Mousse Fils 'Special Club' Brut, Champagne, France 2017 Pym-Rae Tesseron crisp but tremendously complex onMade from 100% Meunier, the 2017 Champagne Special Club Brut has a delicate approach, with its layers unfolding gently from the glass. Initially it displays notes of wet stone, pretty flowers, and delicate fresh raspberry fruits. The palate has more tension and nerve that suggests this will take more time to open, but I love its racier feel. It is linear, though not without its fruit wrapped around its backbone of minerality and acidity. 95 Pts Jeb
