Drawn mostly from a perpetual reserve dating back to 2012, the Diapason is finished with the 2017 and 2016 vintages, all from fruit within Mesnil-sur-Oger. Elevage is performed in old 228-liter barrels and some enamel-lined vats. Classic Mesnil in its directness on the palate, but with ample warmth and breadth that opens beautifully with air.

Pascal's first vintage at the helm of his family's estate was in 1995; by 2004, Pascal had created his own eponymous domaine, which today is known for being one of the finest sources of purity in the Cote des Blancs.

Pascal Doquet

After starting with his family in 1982 at the then-named Doquet-Jeanmaire, Pascal Doquet's career started very humbly and without fanfare. After he took hold of the reins of the family's vineyards, Pascal waited nearly ten more years before attaching his own name to the vineyards, signifying his own readiness and that of his now fully organic vine rows.

Based in Vertus but with holdings in Mesnil-sur-Oger and Le Mont Aimé, Pascal is considered to be one of the most consistently excellent producers of Chardonnay. Stylistically, the wines are fine but expansive, full of character that showcases both his viticultural nous and his deft hand in the cellar. Reserve wines are used often in the non-vintage cuvees, and extended aging for the millesime (single-vintage) wines provides the house signature of soft mousse and ample fruit & spice character.

The golden-yellow colored NV Blanc de Blancs Le Mesnil-sur-Oger Diapason displays a deep, intense yet fresh, fine and complex bouquet of great elegance and terroir expression with chalk and citrus notes. Vinified 45% in small oak barrels, this is an intense, fresh and elegant grand cru, and the finish is intense and perfectly ripe but still precise, refined and delicately salty. This is a truly smart assemblage of two contrasting vintages (2008 and 2009) that takes the best of both to compose something new and complete. It's an excellent cuvée indeed. Bottled in April 2010 and disgorged as Extra Brut on December 12th, 2017. Tasted April 2018.
