it’s made in tiny quantities

All fruit is hand destemmed

A blend you'd usually find a little further north that somehow works remarkably well next to the Atlantic

So much going on it's hard to know where to begin

It's moderately confusing but insanely delicious

La Ferme des 9 Chemins, Le Chemin des Loups 2024 Champagne it’s made in tiny quantitiesPlace: Alsace, France Grape: Sylvaner + Auxerrois + Riesling Vibe: Saline What a lovely trio. Everything directly pressed from volcanic sandstone at a decent altitude for Alsace. The fruit feels dense and juicy, whilst the finish is saline and mineral. A cool vintage, and a really beautiful one, quite emotive. It's not loud, it doesn't shout. It doesn't need to. Delicacy is the name of the game, and all the better for it. ABV: 13%
