Pommery Cuvée Louise Brut 2005

Suckling

One of the very best Champagnes of this difficult vintage, because it shows vibrancy and precision that were so often lacking. Very fine brioche character with a slew of floral notes and whiff of smoke give this compelling character. Laser-beam straight and very pure, the racy finish is extremely long and refined. A blend of 65% chardonnay from Avize and Cramant, plus 35% pinot noir from Ay. Drink or hold. - JS 11/2021
