Tasting notes
This release of the NV Champagne Reserve Brut is made from 80% Pinot Noir and the rest Chardonnay. Boasting a bright copper/straw color, it’s expressive and pretty on the nose, with a floral perfume of brioche, fresh apricot, candied strawberries, and crushed stones. The palate is open and juicy, with a medium-bodied frame and a fluffy mousse. It’s perfectly suited as a versatile aperitif or to close the evening with a nightcap. Drink 2024-2030. Disgorged in November 2022. 40,000 bottles were produced.

Disgorged in March 2021, the latest rendition of Vesselle's NV Brut Réserve is showing nicely, offering up aromas of pear, honeycomb, freshly baked bread and warm biscuits. Medium to full-bodied, elegantly fleshy and precise, its nicely concentrated core of fruit is girdled by bright acids and complemented by a pinpoint mousse.
