The NV Brut is a blend of 40% Pinot Noir, 35% Chardonnay and 25% Pinot Meunier grown in Hampshire and Sussex on greensand and chalk. A small proportion of the wine was fermented in oak. Exquisite purity of ripe but tart russet apple and creamy Golden Delicious flesh blend into a lovely unity on the nose, promising and refreshing at once. The palate adds a beautiful savory nature that reminds one of toasted pecans with an edge of maple syrup. This blends exquisitely well with the apple notes, especially that wonderful apple tartness. Fine mousse makes the wine creamy and presents an elegant, bright and refreshing wine with rounded, sonorous flavors and lasting length. Dosage is 8 grams per liter. Disgorged: January 2025.Inc.

The 2014 Brut Vintage Reserve was picked in Hampshire, Dorset, Kent and Sussex. It is a blend of 62% Chardonnay, 21% Pinot Noir and 17% Pinot Meunier, chiefly from Hampshire and Dorset, with smaller Chardonnay portions from Kent and Sussex. A small proportion of the wine was fermented in oak and it spent eight years on lees. Gentle smoke and lemony creaminess on the nose come with a backdrop of Viennoiserie. Bright lemon defines the palate, where that smoky backdrop lingers while the vivid bubbles burst with freshness and verve. Everything about this is youthful and sprightly, superbly fresh and vivid. Chalkiness makes a lovely appearance on the mid-palate, while the finish rings with brisk freshness and resonant length. Dosage is 8 grams per liter. Disgorged: July 2024.Inc. TAX€594.12 -

The 2021 Pinot Noir Malans Unique opens with a coolish and herbal bouquet with leafy notes and redcurrant aromas and indicates a less generous wine compared to the 2022. The 2021 is less juicy on the palate and characterized more by its transparency, frisky finesse and tension than juiciness and suppleness. The wine is still a bit thrifty on the palate at this early stage and reminiscent of the 2010, but it indicates more intensity and power. The concentrated and dense 2021, with its astringent tannins and firm acidity structure, is definitely a wine to age. Diam cork. Tasted at the domaine in March 2024.Inc. TAX€1,084.33 -

Predominantly sourced in Malans and a little bit in Jenins and destemmed but fermented as whole berries in enameled steel vats for 14–20 days, the 2021 Pinot Noir Tradition offers a pure, fresh and spicy, refreshing phenolic nose of red cherries and wild berries. Aged in used pièces for nine months and bottled in September last year, this is an elegant, fresh and straightforward Pinot Noir with a silky texture and refreshing phenolic grip.

The 2019 Riesling GG Dellchen is enormously fine and elegant on the subtle but fascinatingly complex nose that intertwines stony notes with yellow-fleshed stone fruit aromas. On the palate, this is an intense, highly finessed and elegant Dellchen with incredibly refined juiciness and great balance and purity.

If you are a terroir fundamentalist, then this enormous depth of smoky and wild-herb character will light your fire, but otherwise approach with caution.

Dönnhoff's 2021 Felsenberg GG is pure, bright and flinty on the deep, intense and iodine nose that also reveals phenolic complexity. Full-bodied but refined and elegant on the plate, this is a balanced and light-footed, rich and dense Felsenberg with juicy fruit and crystalline acidity, whereas the tannins step back compared to the Höllenpfad im Mühlenberg. The finish is rich yet refined and saline, with delicate lemon bitters and lush fruit. Although the 2021 is already charming, the wine needs some years on the bottle to show all its complexity and finesse without its youthful charm. This is not an austere wine that needs to soften its edges; it's already dangerously good or even too good to cause patience. But the wine will reward those who can wait. 13% stated alcohol.

This was made in old, neutral Doppelstück. Gorgeous savor unites fern, yarrow and tansy, all tingling amidst citrus and a gentle creaminess. Immediate concentration and fluidity characterize the palate, and the citrus impression almost attains a touch of lemon oil, still holding these savory, herbal notions.
