Ullens - Domaine de Marzilly L.P.M

100% Meunier

Aged in traditional 205 l barrels, made from regional oak

Dosage: 2.2g/l

The wines are neither fined nor filtered.
The work is very manual and laborious, with a great sense of time and the needs of wine.
The second coup of the highly gifted "newies" of Champagne.

L.P.M refers to the area north-west of Reims, originally called "La Petit Montagne", in which their vineyards are located.

Now that another area bears this name, it can no longer be written out on the label for Maximes and Anna's champagne and is therefore "encrypted".

Giuseppe Lauria Editor-in-Chief WEINWISSER APR23: I enjoyed a good 1-hour adventure with this Blanc de Noirs. Because it changes in 10-minute intervals. Initially very restrained, it only reveals its facets with increasing airflow. After 30 to 40 minutes it really gets going: At the beginning only very delicate grapefruit notes, followed by yellow fruits like pear and a touch of marzipan, later bright and light red berries like raspberry join them, which skillfully blend into one with the distinctive sea breeze exciting piece of finesse to be captured in the finale by fine spices such as fennel. An elegant champagne with great evolution in the glass. 17.5+/20-2029

Lukas FEB23: On the nose raspberry, pear and ripe peach with hints of melon and grapefruit in the background. In the mouth juicy lemon and grapefruit, some pear and lemongrass, plus a present and crisp acidity that gives a lot of traction and makes for a great drinkability. A lot of potential for the future, a lot of fun in the glass and a joy to drink right now, but also a very capable food companion.

Nicola JUL21: Incredible fragrance that draws you in, very beautiful, subtle honey note, very exciting soft-spicy beguiling, very own aroma, also again wonderful food companion, has something sweet (not sweet), something red-fruity, very light red cherry, red pepper, slight maturity.
