"From ungrafted meunier vines planted in 1952, this was fermented entirely in secondhand, 225-liter oak barrels. It’s pungent and concentrated in the style of the vintage, although it’s elegantly textured and sleekly built, marked by a graceful tension and a resonant signature of sandy soils. It unfolds on the palate with subtle layers of flavor, persisting with refined harmony and excellent length, and it fares particularly well in a large glass—I was happy with the Lehmann Jamesse Prestige Grand Champagne, which brought out an expansive depth of flavor and a detailed complexity. Last tasted: 3/17" - Peter Liem
