The 2015 Extra-Brut Hors Série (Avize, Merfy) is a blend of fruit from Avize and Merfy. Bright saline underpinnings give the 2015 its palpable tension and cut. There's a feeling of vertical energy here that is so compelling. The 2015 is every bit as impressive as it was when I tasted it a few years ago. Magnificent. Dosage is 1 gram per liter. Disgorged: October 2020.

The 2015 Hors Série is a new 100% Chardonnay from vineyards in Avize and Merfy. A rich, potent Champagne, the Hors Série offers up a striking interplay of rich Chardonnay fruit along with the more oxidative notes that are typical of this style. Apricot, tangerine, spice, baked apple, tart and a touch of oak build into the huge, dramatic finish. This is a fabulous 2015. I can hardly wait to taste subsequent vintages. Dosage is 1 gram per liter. Disgorged: October, 2020.
