The last disgorgement was one of the loveliest wines I'd ever tasted from Margaine. It's still on the market as I write (in April '08) and is so pretty you feel your palate stand up so that it can swoon back down. This one's a 1/08 disgorgement, and all it needs is time. It's 60% 2005 and all the Pinot Noir (all 10% of it) is 2005; the reserve wines (all Chardonnay) hail from '04-'03-'99-'96; it's a creamy elegant wine, more like a mini-Club than the Riesling-like fizz it's sometimes been; again this striking clinging length. High hopes here, and I like the stylistic shift into a more classical idiom. Violet and hyacinth aromas make you think of Riesling (as these wines often do), but the palate is all apples and Rainier cherries with a chalk-powder sprinkle; wonderfully silky and generous, refined and accurate. A virtual Blanc de Blancs; 90% Chardonnay to 10% Pinot Noir. - A. Margaine Champagne Brut Cuvee Traditionelle NV 750ml -
