Champagne Emilien Allouchery Le Repertoire 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2019 75cl
Tasting Note
A golden hue, pine nut nose with a layered impact of toast and butter with hints of banana. The front end is just so inviting, so warm and juicy. Bloody hell! The mid palate is dominated by a lovely malic lateral grip that really commands the palate and holds the finish perfectly. As it opens, this note pushes more to the mid-to-late, developing more length and linking up more black fruits. This is a hugely impactful, and frankly delicious, wine.
Producer
A brand new producer to the scene. The family estate reaches back four generations and sits in the heart of the petite Montagne de Reims with vineyards in Ecueil and Villedommange. He works with Pinot Noir and Chardonnay and focuses on creating vintage specific expressions and vinifies in oak and sandstone amphora. These are unique and beautifully expressive wines that are both academically fascinating and hedonistically gorgeous.
