Jancis Robinson

Full bottle 1,638 g. Sustainability tack pursued by new owners Rémy Cointreau. 49% of the vineyard – their own or their growers – currently certified or in conversion to organic and 100% is the aim by 2031. Wonderfully informative label. 61% Pinot Noir, 39% Pinot Meunier vinified in cask. Aged for six years in bottle and disgorged in 2021 with a dosage of 3.4 g/l. Pale apricot colour. Fully mature nose and rewarding palate which reaches every taste bud. Complete and absolutely ready to enjoy. Very obviously Pinot-based – deep flavours and not exceptional in terms of acidity despite the low dosage. Reasonably long. Could be enjoyed with or without food. (JR)

Vinous

Antonio Galloni

The 2014 Extra Brut Blanc de Noirs spent six years on tirage under natural cork. It is a blend of 61% Pinot Noir from the Aube, fermented in stainless steel, and 39% Pinot Meunier from Damery, fermented and aged in large 5,000-liter barrels. The smoky nose combines ripe plum with rye sourdough crumb amidst pleasant reductive notes. Very fine, tiny bubbles, with a real sense of saltiness. The palate is slender and elegant, with vivid freshness that speaks of the 2014 vintage. Very mouthwatering, with beautiful Pinot structure and fruit, yet exquisite slenderness. Dosage is 3.4 g/L. Disgorged: Q1 of 2021. - Anne Krebiehl MW

The estate

Founded in 1912 by the Lhôpital family, the Champagne Telmont House has seen generations of visionaries passionate about the Champagne terroirs succeed one another. In 2020, the French group Rémy Cointreau joined the Telmont adventure, driven by a shared ambition for the preservation of terroirs through organic farming and the development of a large-scale eco-responsible project. This innovative approach also inspired Leonardo DiCaprio to become a shareholder in the Telmont House. At the same time, Bertrand Lhôpital remains cellar master and vineyard manager, thus ensuring the quality of a family know-how spanning over a century.

The vineyard

The Telmont House covers 24.5 hectares in Damery, near Épernay in Champagne. Since 2017, part of Telmont’s plots have been certified Organic Agriculture. In 2022, half of its land is under organic farming.

Winemaking and aging

50% of the wine is vinified in oak vats, bringing complexity and woody nuances, while the remaining 50% is processed classically in stainless steel tanks, preserving freshness and aromatic purity. After vinification, this 2014 vintage champagne rests for six years in the cellar.

Blend

This Blanc de Noirs is a blend of pinot noir (61%) and pinot meunier (39%).
