Camille Saves N.V. Champagne Brut Grand Cru "Carte d'Or", Bouzy

“Damn, that gives me chills” the words that slipped past my lips as we sampled this wine at our current Champagne tasting. Deeply seductive, curves stuffed into the glass aching to unfold and spread across the palate. Made from 75% Pinot Noir and 25% Chardonnay, all from Grand Cru vineyards. Dense, bursting at the seams and haunting, this is powerful wine with amazing depth and absolute pleasure giving. I have often referred to the wines from Camille Saves as, “A librarian, in fishnets” in a way to describe that they are both intellectual and sexy as hell, one night with this exemplary offering from this tiny domaine and you too will not only understand, you will be wrapped around its finger and banging on our doors for more.
