Geoffrey Expression Brut Champagne

The nose shows yellow cherry, plum, marzipan, cherry pit, and light citrus notes. The palate has a moderate presence to it with citrus, marzipan, yellow plum, violets, lemon curd, and a light fig note. We think the Expression would be best enjoyed in the next three to five years. For this Champagne, get out the sweatpants and make yourselves a bowl of Creamy Polenta topped with Pork Ragu. D&M Tasting Notes

This Grower Producer cuvee, the Geoffroy Expression MV , a blend of 28% Chardonnay, 31% Pinot Noir, and 41% Pinot Meunier from Cumières and the neighboring village of Hautvillers. After an initial fermentation in enameled tank and some neutral oak with malolactic blocked, it was assembled from 53% 2015 and 47% 2014, before being aged on its lees for 42 months.
