🏰 The 2022 Clandestin Les Semblables Austral Brut Nature R20 is a 【precise and vibrant Champagne】 from the talented young winemaker Benoît Doussot, a true gem for enthusiasts of pure, terroir-driven grower Champagnes. This Blanc de Noirs (100% Pinot Noir) hails from a southern-exposed plot in the Côte des Bar, crafted in a zero-dosage Brut Nature style to highlight its purity, tension, and minerality. The 2022 vintage is particularly noted for its luminous profile and chiselled structure. Expect a pale gold robe with subtle silver reflections and a fine, persistent bead. The expressive nose offers citrus zest, white peach, toast, brioche, bergamot, ginger, and dried flowers. On the palate, it's precise with red fruit, citrus, pear, mineral depth, chalky notes, vibrant acidity, and a smooth, saline finish. 🍴 This Champagne is a fantastic partner for seafood, fresh fish, and delicate, iodized cuisine. It also pairs beautifully with rich fish like salmon or tuna, mild and soft cheeses, or even calf sweetbread cooked in hay. 🥂 Perfect as an elegant aperitif, a sophisticated accompaniment to a gastronomic meal, or for those who appreciate precise, characterful, and pure Brut Nature Champagnes.
