Champagne | 1 | 19.5+ (MJ) | HK$10,175.00 | |||||
Matthew Jukes (19.5+)Oak constantly forms a vital role in the kaleidoscopic wine, and the 2007 vintage was fermented in 15-20-year-old oak barrels with gentle lees contact, building fascinating depth and complexity while retaining the riveting signature minerality of the LCSH terroir. As you would expect, each vintage release has its personality, yet there is an indelible character linking every wine from this monopole and joyously present in the 2007. Funnily enough, I was privileged to taste the 2002 vintage earlier in the year, and it was singing. With the freshness of an epic Champagne and the palate complexity of a sensational Burgundy, it is so rare to taste wines that combine both talents to perfection. As it opened in the glass, over a couple of hours, it never stopped shape-shifting and evolving. While 2007 shows a much younger and more linear palate, it is built along precisely the same guidelines. The nose is show-stopping, all-enveloping, and effortlessly graceful, and the palate follows this theme. Serene fruit notes expand and contract as the flavours wash over your senses; there is already much to admire. Of course, the finish is straight-jacketed and controlling; after all, this is the Li-ion cell of power that will propel this wine to greatness. Interestingly, it is clear that after only 16 years of life, this wine is built for the long haul. Still, it will not follow the path of some Champagnes who start their lives packed with intensity and muscle only for it to be eaten up over time, leaving a weaker version of flavour that clings onto life. 2007 Le Clos Saint-Hilaire is leaner, fitter, chiselled, and toned. It is modelled with stamina and grace in equal measure, and so while you can drink it now and marvel at its wonder, you will be greeted with a very similar and no doubt ravishingly enticing wine ten or even twenty years down the track. |

Vinous (90-92)The 2020 Meursault Les Perrières 1er Cru is more hesitant on the nose compared to the Meursault-Charmes, touches of wax resin and crushed stone, a little jasmine, quite tight on the finish. Like others I am just missing a sense of tension and mineralité here. |
