Description
The Wine Advocate
RP 91
Reviewed by: Kristaps Karklins
Largely based on the 2017 vintage (with 34% reserve wines going back to 2006), fermented at low temperatures and fully vinified in oak, the NV Le Sous Bois combines grapes from wide swathes of the Montagne de Reims, Vallée de la Marne and Côte des Blancs (notably Oger, Chouilly and Cramant).
Disgorged with a dosage of five grams per litre in spring 2023 after five years on the lees, it offers aromas of green apple, vanilla, peach and toasted nuts, interwoven with notes of caramelised sugar.
On the palate it's medium to full-bodied, precise and delicately structured, with a core of youthful fruit supported by vibrant acidity and subtly bitter phenolics that assert themselves on the finish. Given the challenges of the vintage, it includes a higher proportion of Chardonnay than usual.
