Professional Reviews

Robert Parker

RP 94
"Disgorged a year ago, Lamblot's NV Brut Nature Les Côtes Chéries is all from the 2019 vintage, deriving from a parcel with sandy soils near the village of Gueux. Offering up aromas of pear, toasted nuts, white flowers and beeswax, it's medium to full-bodied, pillowy and elegant, with a satiny attack, a deep but fine-boned mid-palate and a long, chalky, sapid finish. The vins clairs saw fully two years' élevage before tirage. This will be fascinating to follow over the next dozen years." -Robert Parker

Varietal Notes
100% Pinot Meunier
Biodynamic
Practicing
Vineyard
Single parcel of 1984 massale selection plantings in Gueux. Incorporates biodynamic methods, along with vitiforestry.
Soil
Sand and silt
Viticulture
Incorporates biodynamic methods: mobile chicken coop to clean vineyard and fertilize the soils, encourage biodiversity; development of vitiforestry; careful hand pruning according to the moon; no chemical fertilizers or insecticides, only natural organic products; indigenous grass and plants; grinds up vine cuttings in the parcels; extensive debudding, green harvest; attentive trellissing; essential oils to diminish the doses of copper/sulfur; braiding of the vines for energy exchange
Vinification
100% 2019; Grapes are lightly pressed and fermented using natural yeast. Vinification occurs in jarres and oak barrels. No chaptalization, malolactic fermentation can occur but is not forced. The juice is bottled on fruit days in locally produced bottles. Alexandre bottles with 22 grams of sugar instead of the more typical 24 grams, resulting in a softer, finer mousse .
Aging
Aged in jarres and oak barrels; sur lattes 24+ months; all riddling is done by hand and Alexandre will do "poignettage". Unfined and unfiltered; disgorged by hand according to the lunar calendar on April 2, 2023; <10 mg/L total SO2, zero dosage

Champagne

Champagne boasts some of the world’s greatest luxury brands with Krug, Cristal and, of course, Dom Perignon. But it’s also home to hundreds of small dynamic producers—farmers who grow their own grapes (often organically) and make (often with natural methods) tiny amounts of pure and absolutely delicious wine that reflect the individual personalities of their villages and terroirs. Toast with these wines, for sure. But also treat them like the great wines they are: taste, drink, explore!
