"Disgorged in October 2023 with a dosage of three grams per liter, the 2020 Verzenay 20 3.0 Grand Cru offers up aromas of spring flowers, herbs, red berries and blanched almonds mingled with walnuts. Medium to full-bodied, tense and straight, with a delicately structured palate, it's incisive and framed by bright acids, concluding with an ethereal, fresh finish. It is derived entirely from vines planted in Verzenay." —Yohan Castaing

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!
