smoked meats and underbrush that continue to change and develop in the glass

A much more elegant nose displays cool and ultra-fresh aromas of both red and dark pinot fruit that is trimmed in much more subtle oak nuances

A gentle application of wood sets off an earthy

ripe and very ripe berries leave a mouth filling impression

Cedric Bouchard, Roses de Jeanne Haute Lemble Vintage:2016 smoked meats and underbrush thatIs there a better way to start lunch than with Cedric Bouchard's 2006 Blanc de Blancs La Haute Lemble and a dozen oysters? I doubt it. The wine was absolutely beautiful, even a touch reserved, but the trademark Bouchard elegance was on full display. Bouchard's Champagnes remain some of my very favorite wines on the planet. This bottle was stunning. Antonio Galloni
