Champagne QuinteEssence Extra Brut
The 2005 Extra Brut Quinte Essence is an elegant and stunningly finessed assemblage of two-thirds Pinot Meunier and one-third Chardonnay. The wine displays an intensely golden-yellow color followed by a deep, intense, beautifully matured, aromatic and complex bouquet of ripe, yellow-fleshed fruits, caramel, bread, brioche and toffee. Full-bodied, round and nutty on the palate, this is a pretty intense but pure, fresh and refined vintage Champagne with remarkable complexity and structure and hazelnut flavors on the finish. Disgorged in September 2017, with no dosage. Tasted April 2018. 93/100
