Tasting notes
The 2017 Champagne Orizeaux Extra Brut is 100% Pinot Noir and has a distinctive perfume of potpourri, wild raspberry liqueur, and toast. There is great energy and depth to the wine without feeling weighted, while it has a more savory hint on the finish, with a bit of broth and lingering smoky perfume. Drink 2024-2044.

The 2017 Extra-Brut Orizeaux, 100% Pinot Noir is rather attractive, even if it doesn't quite have the depth or textural presence of the very best wines in this range. Sweet red plum, kirsch, dried flowers and mint lend a good bit of aromatic nuance, but the 2017 is not ready to show all its cards yet. It does open beautifully with time in the glass, though suggesting all that is needed is a measure of patience. Dosage is 3 grams per liter. Disgorged: November, 2021.
