Geoffroy 2016 "Empreinte" Millesime Extra Brut Champagne
Made up entirely of Pinot Noir from their home village of Cumières, all from the 2016 harvest, this was aged in used large oak barrels for six months before going through the Champagne process. It spent 66 months in bottle before being disgorged in November 2022 with a dosage of 3 grams per liter. The nose opens with red apple, kirsch, red plum, clotted cream, spice, white pepper, clay, and a light suggestion of barrel. On the palate this is moderate in weight with persistent acidity, and flavors of early season apple giving way to cream, clay and a mix of white cherry and plum with cherry blossoms and a mixed spice on the finish. - D&M TASTING NOTES
