although you only need a tiny bit

My notes read “this is really good” and not much more needs to be said

Emmanuel Brochet, Champagne Les Hautes Vignes 'Le Mont Benoit' 2017 Easy although you only need aPlace: Champagne, France Grape: Chardonnay + Meunier Vibe: Phwoar Hen's teeth territory here. Just over 3,000 bottles produced, which for Champagne is like, nothing. 50 50 Meunier + Chardy from vines planted in the '60s, this is aged in oak for 11 months then another six years on the lees in bottle. A lengthy elevage that adds to the depth and complexity of this remarkable bottling. Truly something special. ABV: 12. 5%
