ripe and very ripe berries leave a mouth filling impression

As one might reasonably expect this is notably more elegant than the old vines Gevrey with its ripe but cool and airy array of essence of black cherry

Cedric Bouchard, Roses de Jeanne Haute Lemble Vintage:2016 More subtle wood influence framesIs there a better way to start lunch than with Cedric Bouchard's 2006 Blanc de Blancs La Haute Lemble and a dozen oysters? I doubt it. The wine was absolutely beautiful, even a touch reserved, but the trademark Bouchard elegance was on full display. Bouchard's Champagnes remain some of my very favorite wines on the planet. This bottle was stunning. Antonio Galloni
