Tasting notes
Partially raised in small barrels, the NV Champagne Blanc De Blancs Les Jardins Du Mesnil Extra Brut has a bright straw/yellow color and opens to ripe aromas of fresh pineapple, yellow flowers, wet stones, and almond pastry. The full-bodied palate reveals a good deal of refinement, with a glossy texture of citrus oil coating the palate, and it has a rounded mousse and a rather long finish. It is drinking very well now and should continue to improve over the coming 6-8 years. Disgorged in September 2023, with 3 grams per liter dosage.

The NV Champagne Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs Les Jardins Du Mesnil Extra Brut offers more depth and richness, with a higher proportion (30%) of reserve wine added to the blend to complement the 2017 vintage. It lifts from the glass with brioche, almond, and tropical aromas of green pineapple. Full-bodied and rounded, with vanillin and custardy oak spice, it displays sweet fruit through the mid-palate, with its mineral edge holding it all together. It’s a very charming and approachable wine to drink 2024-2038. The dosage is 2.5 grams per liter.

It was raised in 30% wood barrels with the remainder in stainless steel. Fresh notes of lime blossom and wet stone are followed by a dry, citrus-driven palate with green apple and lemon balm. Drink over the next 5-6 years.
