The 2002 Brut Blanc de Blancs Fleur de Passion is initially a rather tightly-wound, angular wine. With some time in the glass, this Champagne becomes a little more generous, yet it remains focused in its expression of white peaches, flowers and minerals. The finish is long, sweet and ultimately quite seductive, even if this isn’t an especially accessible wine at this stage. The Fleur de Passion is made from the estate’s oldest vines in Cramant and aged in barrel. Disgorged in July, 2007. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2019. Unfortunately I was only able to taste one wine from Diebolt-Vallois, a family-run property located in Cramant that traces its roots all the way back to the 15th century.
