Emmanuel Brochet, Haut Chardonnay Extra Brut Millesime other_regions_australia sappy and highly complex flavors

sappy and highly complex flavors are underpinned by supple tannins that have none of the aggressiveness of the typical '95 today

licorice and white pepper

along with a deeper cola accent and a hint of energizing minerality

This is quite good but a wine for those who can buy and forget they own it

black cherry preserves and stewed plums plus a savory undercurrent of grilled meats

Emmanuel Brochet, Haut Chardonnay Extra Brut Millesime other_regions_australia sappy and highly complex flavorsRicher and more textural than its Meunier counterpart, Brochet's 2012 Extra Brut Les Hauts Chardonnays unwinds in the glass with scents of warm pastry, pear, citrus oil, nutmeg and white flowers. Medium to full bodied, deep and concentrated, with notably chalky structuring extract and a tangy spine from acidity, it's elegantly fleshy and mouthwateringly saline, concluding with a bracing, bone dry finish.
