So ripe, rich and toasty that you only realize it’s bone-dry when it has rolled a long way over the palate. Very long, savory and mineral finish with so much drive. Still so energetic, in spite of the complex, mature character, so I can imagine this aging for many more years. A blend of 80% chardonnay and 20% pinot noir that was wild-fermented in wooden casks with no malolactic. Disgorged February 1st, 2021. Drink or hold.

Varietal

Champagne Blend

The sparkling wines of Champagne have been revered by wine drinkers for hundreds of years, and even today they maintain their reputation for excellence of flavor and character, and are consistently associated with quality, decadence, and a cause for celebration. Their unique characteristics are partly due to the careful blending of a small number of selected grape varietals, most commonly Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. These grapes, blended in fairly equal quantities, give the wines of Champagne their wonderful flavors and aromas, with the Pinot Noir offering length and backbone, and the Chardonnay varietal giving its acidity and dry, biscuity nature. It isn't unusual to sometimes see Champagne labeled as 'blanc de blanc', meaning it is made using only Chardonnay varietal grapes, or 'blanc de noir', which is made solely with Pinot Noir.

Region

Champagne

The beautiful rolling hillsides of the Champagne region of France have, for hundreds of years, been producing many of the world's most famous wines. The sparkling white wines to come out of Champagne's prestigious wineries have conquered the world, and are drank in celebration across the globe. The vast majority of the region is under vine, and grows predominantly Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grape varietals, which are usually blended together by master wine-makers in order to make their recognizable and widely loved produce. The north-easterly region of Champagne has a relatively cool climate, and quite a lot of rainfall, making it far from ideal for ripening grapes. However, the presence of heavily forested areas in the region helps maintain a balanced temperature, and the generations of expertise the wineries hold clearly produces excellent results in spite of the climatic problems.

The 2005 Champagne La Lutetienne Brut Nature is 80% Chardonnay and the rest Pinot Noir and was aged for 15 years on the lees before disgorgement in November 2021. A medium yellow hue, the nose is sunny and rounded, with sunny fruit of apricot, almond, and chamomile. It is pillowy and ripe on the palate, with somewhat more modest levels of acidity, and has a note of dried flowers and peach. Drink 2022-2037.

The 2005 Brut Nature La Lutétienne is a gorgeous wine, especially for the year. Dried pear, spice, dried flower and hazelnut nuances suggest the 2005 is in its first plateau of maturity. I wouldn't push my luck on aging, but the 2005 is undeniably beautiful today. The 2005 is 80% Chardonnay and 20% Pinot Noir. Disgorged: February 14, 2020.
