The Bourgeois-Diaz 3C is a zero dosage lemon mineral delight. Disgorged 7/6/2022, this wine appeals to the extra brut fan club, never rich, but also not lacking in flavor. I get so much stony chalkiness here sitting over a base of lemon danish. There’s also a hint of fall leaves in there that develops with some time and air. Really lovely champagne that has a clear sense of place, and worked beautifully with sushi. Clearly unfiltered, the wine is a sort of hazy yellow gold, and quite pretty for an unfiltered wine if you ask me.

Lillies, lemon juice, ripe apricots, flint/slate (can't really decide which) and fresh baked bread on the nose. Smells absolutely delicious, with a fiercely high intensity of aromas. The palate adds fresh green almonds, bitter honey and is very much driven by the autolytic yeast flavors, as well as the stone. This just tastes really nicely bitter. Medium + intensity of flavors.
Medium body with a high mousse and medium - acid. An absolute pleasure to drink, and especially to smell. I really want to try their other wines.

Disgorged 01/22. Orchard fruit, good balance. Not the most complex but an enjoyable bottle of champagne.

Delicious champagne. Generous, lively and balanced with luscious mousse. Love that slight bitter tinge too.
