Description
“I have been drinking the wines from the Ployez family since the mid-1980s, but this is the first example of non-vintage Blanc de Blancs that I have ever had the pleasure to taste from this fine estate and it is a fine addition to their lineup. The dosage of this bottling is three grams per liter and the bouquet is excellent, offering up a deep and youthfully complex mix of pear, apple, a touch of hazelnut, warm biscuits, lovely soil tones and just a touch of oak influence from the barrel fermentation of the vins clairs. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and still quite youthful in profile, with an excellent core and mineral signature, elegant mousse, brisk acids and lovely focus and grip on the very well-balanced finish. This is approachable now, but really deserves a bit of bottle age to relax a bit more structurally and really start to sing. It is an excellent wine. 2019-2035+. 91+.” John Gilman FOR A DIFFERENT DISGORGEMENT THAN THE ONE OFFERED HERE (THIS IS HIS ONLY REVIEW OF THIS RARELY SEEN CUVÉE)
