Boizel : Brut Réserve

A well-proportioned brut, with subtle creamy, doughy, lemony aromas and flavors that make an attractive package.

A delicate, round Champagne with enveloping, approachable complexity. A beautiful nose with delicate citrus notes, subtle nuttiness and delicious salinity. Flavours of yellow apple, pear, salted almonds and dried apricots sit comfortably on the palate. A honeyed edge to the medium finish.

Very red apple on the nose and front palate, this is an extremely crisp and straight Champagne that’s very refreshing at the self-confidently dry finish. A cuvee of 40% pinot noir, 35% chardonnay and 25% pinot meunier with 40% of reserve wines from prior vintages. Disgorged in December 2022. Drink now.

(55% Pinot Noir, 30% Chardonnay and 15% Pinot Meunier; 9 g/l dosage; disgorged in March, 2014): Light gold. Dried pear, beeswax, anise and a hint of chamomile on the nose. Dry and chewy, with ripe orchard and pit fruit flavors that show a hint of warmth. Closes on a bitter pear skin note, with good grip and decent persistence.

Medium yellow-green with silver reflections and a lively mousse. A floral bouquet, with white apple, hints of lime and a mineral touch. Medium complexity on the palate with a delicate core of peach fruit, hints of blossom honey and harmonious acidity. Overall, it's fruity and persistent. (Disgorged 05/23, PM).

The NV Champagne Reserve Brut reveals a bright yellow hue and offers a bit of mustiness on the nose, with aromas of parmesan, grapefruit pith, bread dough, and yellow plum. A blend of 55% Pinot Noir, 30% Chardonnay, and the rest Meunier, it’s rounded on the palate, with a frothy mousse and a straightforward and lightly spicy finish. It is prime for drinking over the near term. Disgorged in August 2021.

Fresh and flavorful, broad on the palate with maturity and precise fruit.

This is the non-vintage cuvée from this family-owned producer in Epernay. It is a balanced wine, featuring soft, ripe white fruits, lifted by acidity and a gentle finish. The Champagne is highly drinkable.
