The 2008 Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Les Chétillons, disgorged after six years on the bottle in April 2015, comes from four chalky plots with Chardonnay vines planted in 1951, 1968, 1970 and 1972. Bright in its citrus-yellow/golden color, the 2008 is super precise and chalky on the intense and concentrated but rather more mineral than fruity nose. Chalk intertwined with ripe apples and a dash of lemon juice. The palate is great! Very pure but refined and complex, and it finishes with a concentrated and even juicy but most of all very mineral and salty impression. The finish is enormously long and announces an even greater wine in years to come. Great, great tension and finesse here and again this juicy lemon and apple fruit with chalk powder on it. Great complexity, tension and length. A potential giant. Tasted in Bremen in January 2019.

The 2008 Brut Nature Blanc de Blancs Les Chetillons offers notable power and intensity, but it also comes across as a bit yeasty and more advanced than most wines in this vintage, which is most likely attributable to fermentation and aging in barrel. Slightly oxidative overtones suggest the 2008 will offer its best drinking over the next few years. My impression is that with less oak influence this could be a truly stellar Champagne. The terroir is certainly first class.
