Extracted from a thread just posted: 4 wines tasted blind at dinner plus a gifted treasure: NV Fallet-Dart les Haut des Clos du Mont, 2020 Lorenzen Piece 15, 2011 Chezeaux Clos Saint Denis, 2010 Lambrays Clos des Lambrays and 1998 Gaja Barbaresco
NV FALLET-DART les HAUT des CLOS du MONT EXTRA BRUT- blind; although stated to be non vintage on the label, it is 100% from 2006 comprised of 80% Chardonnay and 20% Pinot Noir, bottled in 2007, aged 15+ years on the lees and disgorged 4/23; following its yellow gold color came aromas of toasty citrus and apple fruit that continued on to be topped with a coat of honey and a more distinct lemon flavor; it was full bodied, very rich and possessed nice acidity, but there was a surprising dryness that prevailed throughout; my first impression was it was very similar to Taittinger Comtes, but that got quickly dispelled by the dryness; I called it a 2006 BdB with a dosage of around 5 gpl. I never did find the actual dosage.
Cheers,
