HAPPY NEW YEAR
EVERYBODY!!!
Well, as you can see for
yourselves … a bit dull this time, right? Just Champagne? Nothing weird? Nothing exotic? Can't I don better? Cause I could! Sometimes I just have to surrender to my
inherent laziness ... to have something really good, I guess! And by the way this stuff wasn't that dull at all!!! I just love this Marie-Courtin
shit! Not just this Extra Brut Résonace made from 100% Pinot Noir
without sugary dosage. I love all the others as well! Even the Blanc
de Blanc stuff ... which I am normally not so much into! Yesterday the Résonace showed a very vital and
almost sturdy mousse. I must have got myself a recently
disgorged bottle. The nose appeared very filigree, nicely
accentuated, mostly flowery, however very well equippted with
some shy brioche, a whiff of ginger and fragrances which reminded me of mild almond stollen.The fruitful components appeard more yellow citrus'y and packed with red apples. Pretty much the same sensations on the palate. Can't elaborate more properly ... hangover issues, I guess. Anyway, everything was very lean, a hint too juvenile zippy, nevertheless quite seductive
and downright zero-dosage-style resolute. Plenty of very crisp and
smile-inducing Pinot characteristics, too. Hellishly vivid acid (in a downright positive sense), overall quite elegant and even a bit elevating (sorry for my unusual pathos)! Again, very resolute, vitalizing, very
clear, very precise, super crisp and totally sans make-up! Doubtlessly a very decent *****
start into the new year! Let's hope it will be better! At least the starting fizz was much better ...
