Gault&Millau's review
2020 97/100
Superb 1990: limpid gold color, fine train of bubbles... as soon as you see this jeroboam, you know you're in for something exceptional. The nose is of rare complexity, with notes of roots, toasted sesame, roasted coffee, smoke and bacon rind. Then, with aeration, apricot, ripe yellow fruit and a hint of mushroom appear. On the palate, we find the same complexity, with an evanescent bubble, like a permanent bounce, and clear freshness. Ample, ripe, straightforward and taut at the same time, the wine lengthens to a long, divine gentian finish. A superb success! And the added benefit of the format is undoubtedly a real plus. To be enjoyed on its own as an aperitif, then as part of an entire meal with breaded veal sweetbreads with a dried root studding or grilled eel on a pomme de pain. Grandiose and available on request from the house.

Castelnau
Castelnau champagne, created in honor of General Edouard de Curières de Castelnau, who distinguished himself in the First World War, celebrated its centenary in 2016. Very much in vogue throughout much of the 20th century, and particularly in the 1930s, it was served at the tables of several royal families and French army circles around the world. In 2021, the Terroirs et Vignerons de Champagne group acquired this house, joining the Nicolas Feuillatte brand, Abelé 1757 and, more recently, Henriot champagnes. "Champagne Castelnau is made to be shared. Its cuvées will take you on a journey into a world of their own, with real character", says Carine Bailleul, the cellar manager.
