Tasting notes
Vinified in tank without sulfur, the 2016 Extra-Brut Concordance is an attractively vinous Champagne that offers up aromas of toasted bread, pear and confit orange, followed by a medium to full-bodied, fleshy palate built around lively acids and chalky grip. A slight touch of mousiness, however, asserts itself on the finish, compromising an otherwise attractive wine.

The 2016 Extra Brut Sans Soufre Concordance, 100% Pinot Noir, is an exotic, wild wine. Apricot, honey, orange peel, hazelnut, spice, menthol and tropical inflections all open with a bit of time in the glass. Pinot Noir naturally has a tendency to present oxidative qualities. The Sans Soufre style seems to amplify those qualities. In this release, the Concordance comes across as forward and more advanced than a five year-old Champagne, its obvious, beauty and complexity notwithstanding. I would prefer to drink it on the young side. No dosage. Disgorged: April, 2019.
