The 2020 Camille Hommage Mareuil-sur-Aÿ Coteaux Champenois is stellar. Striking aromatics and a touch of whole cluster savoriness meld into a core of blue/purplish fruit. In 2020, what stands out most is the purity of the flavors. All the elements are so well balanced, especially the stems (20%) and the oak that was overpowering in some of the very first vintages. This supremely polished Coteaux is an absolute delight. (Drink between 2023-2030)
This is so fragrant and spicy, brimming with aromas of cloves, balsamic, blood orange, rust, dried flowers and burnt rosemary. And then silky on the palate, medium-bodied, with supple and gorgeously sleek tannins, complementing the ethereal and lightly estery character. Long and elegant. Pinot noir from lieu-dit Charmont in Mareuil-Sur-Ay. Vinified with 40% stem inclusion. Delightful already but better after 2024.
