Champagne Guiborat Téthys 19 Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs NV
Côte des Blancs, Champagne, FranceWinemaker Richard Fouquet represents the 5th generation running this family domaine, established in 1885. Nearly 75% of their fruit is sold to Laurent-Perrier, with the remainder of choices parcels kept for their family label. They mainly work with vineyards in the Côte des Blancs GCs of Cramant and Chouilly and Oiry, as well as Pinot Meunier from Mardeuil in the Vallée de la Marne Rive Gauche. This BdB was based on the 2019 vintage, with 27% from a perpetual reserve. After 7 months on lees in stainless, with full MLF, this went into bottle for a minimum of 24 months sur lattes, and was dosed with 1.5g/L. Tight and nervy, this compact champagne reveals lovely meringue, deep chalk, and buzzy lemon, all imbued with rock salts. Quite finessed and interesting, this recently disgorged bottle is drinking beauty now, and has a ways to unfurl yet. Téthys is the Greek goddess of the sea, and the name of the ancient ocean which previously covered Champagne.Tasted: 01 May 2023Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:QC | $88.86 | 750ml | private import |
