"The 2012 Extra Brut Terre Millésime is a very pretty, approachable Champagne that has arrived at the first plateau of maturity. Sourced from old vines with a minimum age of 50 years, the blend is 74% Chardonnay, 17% Meunier and 9% Pinot Noir. Dried lemon peel, chamomile, spice and light nutty tones are nicely woven together in this mid-weight offering. Floral top notes extend the finish. This is nicely balanced and easy to like. Dosage is 4 grams per liter. Disgorged: February, 2023."

"Produced from Geoffroy's oldest parcels and with tirage under cork rather than crown cap, the newly released 2012 Extra-Brut Premier Cru Millésimé Terre was disgorged in January 2023 with four grams per liter dosage. Offering up aromas of peach, pear, sweet almonds, pastry and white flowers, it's medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy, with a layered, vinous core of fruit and a long, vibrant finish. It's a terrific success."
