Champagne Suenen - C + C Blanc De Blancs Extra Brut Base 2020 NV (750ml)

Vinous 94 points

"The NV Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs C + C Grand Cru gets its name from Chouilly and Cramant, the villages where the Chardonnay was picked. The nose presents yellow apple peel with a sheen of waxiness and a sense of dried ears of wheat and a touch of ocean air. Saltiness is immediate on the slender palate, where concentration gives a sense of salted apple flesh, wet oyster shell and deep chalk. Slender, earthy, intense and deeply oceanic. Fruit subsides to let soil speak. There's a fine but slightly dissipating mousse. Disgorged: January, 2023." - Anne Krebiehl MW
