Champagne Brut, Cuvée Fiacre, Chartogne-Taillet 2002
The Wine Advocate: “The 2002 Brut Tete de Cuvee Fiacre is simply fantastic. The wine seems to capture a beautiful middle ground between the older and new styles at the house. The Cuvee Fiacre shows remarkable richness and depth while remaining light on its feet. Wild flowers, menthol and anise are some of the nuances that linger on the supremely graceful finish. The Cuvee Fiacre is an old-vines coeur du cuvee pressing, 60% Chardonnay and 40% Pinot Noir. Dosage is 8 grams. As one might reasonably expect, it comes across as a bit weightier than the 2002 Millesime. This is magnificent Champagne. 2011-2022”. |
