Drinking this with the K&L crew after work last night was a huge treat. It struck me immediately how much this 2012 reminds me of the 2002s at this age. The wine is full, powerful and concentrated but still balanced by great acidity and a strong vein of minerality. The wine is loaded with the white flower exoticism of top-notch Chardonnay and seemed almost blanc de blanc like. The texture and bead were perfect, reminding me of prestige cuvée level Champagne. This Champagne is pretty irresistible right now!

This Champagne immediately mesmerized me with its fabulous aromas of linden tree blossom and white acacia flower. These incredibly captivating and engaging aromas lead to an even more impressive palate: deep, layered, and textured, with good mineral notes and a hint of fresh brioche, Meyer lemon, and a long-lasting finish. It was definitely a fantastic treat for us after a long day at work; everybody should have the same experience for sure!
Notes
The Fallet family traces its wine growing history back to 1610. Following the marriage of Geneviève Dart and Gaston Fallet in 1953, the Fallet-Dart brand was founded in 1970. The wine is composed of 70% Chardonnay and 30% Pinot Noir that is fermented in a mix of oak barrels and stainless steel tanks. It is then aged for at least seven years on the lees.
