Tasting note
The Extra-Brut Chemin de Reims, 100% Chardonnay from Merfy, is a dense, mineral, savory wine. The more muscular side of Chardonnay comes through in this potent, brooding Champagne. The Chemin de Reims is the most structured and most 'red-wine feeling' of the Alexandre Chartogne's Chardonnays. It requires time and attention, as there is a lot of wine here. Aeration brings out the wine's compelling interplay of fruit depth and minerality. Disgorged: February, 2022.
Score: 95
