Gaston Chiquet Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs Champagne France I Collazzi prune and blackberry

prune and blackberry

On the palate it’s full and round with a bit of the typical Sangiovese dusky tannins that still display the burr of youth and rich fruit

well-integrated but still lightly firm tannins

followed by empyreumatic fragrances that vary between vanilla and roasting

Notes of ripe

Gaston Chiquet Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs Champagne France I Collazzi prune and blackberryAn expressive Champagne, with tangy orange peel acidity enlivening white cherry and raspberry fruit flavors. A lively sipper, with a lacy mousse, a chalky underpinning and hints of lemon curd, pickled ginger and spring blossoms on the finish. Wine Spectator
