Champagne Wine

Jason Wilson writes:  Falling between VS and VSOP level, this four- to five-year-old is light golden and simple. It’s fruity on the nose and a little grapey, and on the palate, there’s a lot of creamy vanilla and a touch of spice. Not particularly a cocktail brandy due to its price. It is what it is.   - Vinous

This three-year-old bottling from AOC Domfrontais is made from 70% pears and hearkens back to old-school Calvados in the best sense. Light amber in color, the nose is wild and rustic, with earthy aromas of poached pear, pear skin, along with toffee and crème brûlée. In the mouth, there’s great acidity, fresh fruit, along with green, herbal notes, and a pop of fresh fennel on the attractive finish.  - Vinous 96

 

Eye: Beautiful straw yellow color.

Nose: Aromas of vine flower & linden with a touch of vanilla.

Palate: Round, rich, and harmoniously balanced. Fresh, original, with notes of vanilla and toast.

Hardy XO Rare Cognac is a version of the “Tradition” range from the house of Hardy Cognac. The brandy mixture is deliciously aged, giving a spirit of a beautiful amber color. The layered palate is a continuous evolution of inspiring flavors. This smooth Cognac has irresistible aromas and a deliciously long finish. Producer Description.

A very subtle, aromatic Cognac. Its subtle vanilla bouquet also has floral overtones of roses and violets, leading into hints of prunes and apricots. Pierre Ferrand Ambre is superbly balanced on the palate. The aromas found on the bouquet linger on the palate for several minutes. Producer Description.

Rémy Martin Tercet is a unique Cognac Fine Champagne blended from aromatic eaux-de-vie with notes of fresh and tropical fruits. Reflecting the House style, Tercet lights up a new path for cognac.

Three talents came together to create Rémy Martin Tercet: our Cellar Master, Master Distiller and Wine Master. Three men of their time, each carrying the heritage of generations of Masters before them, combined their unique expertise to reveal the best of what nature offers.

A singular Cognac Fine Champagne, bold, fresh and fruit forward with a surprisingly long finish.
Rémy Martin Tercet can be enjoyed neat to reveal its boldness, with one large ice cube to enhance its freshness, or paired with fresh pineapple or in a pineapple dessert to reveal its roundness.

 Zalto is today one of the big names in professional glassmaking in the wine world. Made in Austria, the Zalto glasses of the Denk'Art series were influenced by the Earth: the curves of the chalice follow, according to the manufacturer, the angles of inclination of the blue planet, i.e. 24 °, 48 ° and 72 °. Zalto glass is mouth blown and handcrafted by an Austrian master glassmaker. The tradition of the most skilled glassblowers is reflected in the finesse of each Zalto glass.

Despite their featherweight Zalto glasses have all the attributes of a modern glass and are designed to be dishwasher safe.

Materials: Lead-free crystal, carefully selected raw materials guaranteed free of lead oxide give Zalto glasses a high resistance to opacification. Producer Description.

Critic Notes

Multiple Harvest Reviews:

Antonio Galloni writes:  Moncuit's NV Extra Brut Les Grands Blancs is a blend of vintages 2014 and 2013. More importantly, it is a terrific expression of Mesnil. Lemon peel, white flowers, almond, sage and chamomile add lovely shades of nuance. The low dosage of three grams per liter works beautifully here. All the elements simply fall into place in this very pretty and deeply expressive Champagne from Moncuit. I loved it. Dosage: 3 gr/L. Disgorged: January, 2019.  - Vinous 92

William Kelly writes:  Disgorged in September 2017, this bottle of Moncuit's NV Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru is showing beautifully, bursting with aromas of warm bread, fresh peach, yellow apples and dried white flowers, it's medium to full-bodied, fleshy and nicely defined, with a pinpoint mousse, a generous core of fruit and attractive autolytic nuance.  - Robert Parker Wine Advocate 91

The famed Champagne House Bereche et Fils was founded in 1847 and like most Grower Champagne, it was virtually unheard of until recently. The innovative work of young Raphael and Vincent Bereche has made this one of the most talked about Champagne houses among France’s sommeliers, cavistes and connoisseurs. With lavish praise from Peter Liem and Antonio Galloni, the same is beginning to happen the United States.
