Galloni om: Champagne Les Tiersaudes Brut Nature

The 2013 Extra Brut Les Tiersaudes, 100% Meunier from vines planted in 1972, is marvelous. It offers gorgeous depth and yet remains light on its feet, with striking aromatic presence and tons of complexity. Apricot, tangerine oil and perfumed floral notes all open in the glass. Three years after disgorgement, the 2013 remains bright and wonderfully focused. Readers will find an especially elegant, refined expression of Meunier. Disgorged: April, 2018. 95/100

Suckling om: Champagne Les Tiersaudes Brut Nature

This has a very attractive, savory grilled-nut and wild red-fruit nose, as well as a light, earthy, sous-bois note. The palate has a very smooth, rich and mouth-filling shape with plenty of fresh citrus fruit and yellow plums. Drink or hold. 94/100

Parker om: Champagne Les Tiersaudes Brut Nature

Disgorged in April 2018 and derived entirely from Cumières Pinot Meunier, the 2013 Brut Nature Les Tiersaudes offers up a lovely bouquet of lime zest, smoky orchard fruit, red berries, bitter orange and spices. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, broad and vinous, with a youthfully frothy but incipiently fine mousse, excellent concentration at the core and a firm girdle of acidity, concluding with a long, dry and chalky finish. The expression of fruit is so pristine and the wine's structure is so complete that I can understand why Geoffroy opted to release this as Brut Nature, though I would love to experience the additional plenitude that a disgorgement with one or two grams per liter dosage might possess. 93+/100
