If you crave soulful Black Grape Champagne you need to check out this riveting offering from Dominique Moreau, yet another rising star from Champagne's southern Aube district. Named after her grandmother Dominique Moreau established her estate in 2005 in the village of Polisot located not far from the River Seine. From the outset Dominique's vision was to create a series of single-vineyard, single-vintage, and single varietal Champagnes from old-vine, Biodaynmically farmed grapes that are meticulously elaborated sans dosage. The Aube's warmish climate, which is particularly suited to Pinot Noir, combined with the region's Kimmeridgian limestone sub soils gives Moreau's Champagnes a chiseled, Chablisien freshness that is so appealing.
VINOUS WINE MEDIA 92 POINTS - "The Extra Brut Resonance is bright, articulate and focused. This is an especially nervy expression of Pinot Noir. Bright acids and veins of salinity lend energy to this sculpted, taut Pinot Noir. Citrus peel, crushed rocks, mint jasmine and white pepper lend energy. No dosage. Disgorged: April, 2021."
