Mandois Brut Origine NV

Wine Critic Reviews

Owen Bargreen (90): The NV Champagne Mandois ‘Brut Origine’ combines 40% Chardonnay and 30% Pinot Noir with the remainder Pinot Meunier. Given 7G/L dosage this opens with lime zest, sea salt and ginger notes alongside toasty brioche tones. The palate is refined, linear and fresh, showing beautiful tension throughout the drinking experience. Enjoy now and over the next few years.

Wine Enthusiast (90): This producer, based at the entry to the Côte des Blancs, offers a balanced blend in this nonvintage Champagne. It has richness while also keeping the crispness and texture of Chardonnay. The wine is ready to drink.

Vinum Wine Magazine (16): Possesses minerality, breed, and freshness, temperament, is excellently made, with a juicy, fruity finish of green apples. Suitable for fatty poultry and other delicacies. Can mature somewhat.

Falstaff (89): Medium yellow-green, fine mousseux. Fresh yellow apple, a hint of pears, delicately nutty undertones, a hint of honeydew melon. Racy, white fruit nuances, fresh acid structure, mineral, lemony in the finish, apricots in the aftertaste.
