Heiner Lobenberg om:
Champagne Joyau Extra Brut in Geschenkpackung 2008

97–98+
/100

Prestige-cuvéen blev skabt af Rene Boizel i 1961 på familiens vingård, der blev grundlagt i 1834 i Cotes de Blancs. Hovedkvarteret ligger stadig i centrum af Epernay, og Boizel er stadig ejet af den samme familie. 2008 er en mindeværdig årgang overalt, på niveau med de store årgange 1988 og 2002, ultrakompleks og langtidsholdbar. Delvis lagret på barriques, kun fra Grand Cru-vinmarker, 12 år på gæren. VENT! Først efter yderligere 10 år i flasken kommer Joyau virkelig til sin ret.

Decanter om: Champagne Joyau Extra Brut in Geschenkpackung

Toasted hazelnuts and pecans on the nose, charry, buttery almonds, green apple so much aromatic complexity. Caramel, bitter lemon, orange, brioche/patisserie elements, like a buttery hot cross bun, some truffle too. Racy, piercing acidity hits the palate straight away along with such tiny, frothy bubbles that fill the mouth. The spine and tension is there, driving the wine forward with a clear vein of citrus acidity - a shot of lemon and lime, while still having the undercurrent of toasted, salty nuts. Nuanced and characterful with a hint of sweetness, sharpness and raciness all giving nuance and interest and building to an impressive whole. Well controlled with balance, construction and a gourmet feel. Made with Premier and Grand Cru grapes: Pinot Noir grapes from Mailly, Cumières, and Chigny-les-Roses, and Chardonnay grapes from Avize, Chouilly, and Vertus. Grapes are aged 12 years on their lees. Dosage 3g/L. Recently disgorged January 2023. 97/100

Jane Anson om: Champagne Joyau Extra Brut in Geschenkpackung

Delicate aromatics on the attack, this is a Champagne with a distinct personality, almond, green pepper, apple, fresh figs, citrus. Fine mousse that hides powerful depths with a mouthwatering bitter almond and salted cracker finish, you can drink this now but it has decades ahead of it. 10% vinified in oak barrels, 12 years on the lees, 3g/l dosage. The Pinot Noir comes from Mailly and Vertus and Chardonnay from Oger, Avize and Vertus in the Côte des Blancs, all Grand Cru and Premier Cru vineyards. 97/100
