The 2008 Extra-Brut Non-Dosé Oenophile is rich creamy and beautifully textured yet maintains the brightness and focus that are such signatures of the house style. A Champagne of real depth and power the 2008 is a wine for the dinner table. The non-dosage style seems to really bring out resonance and intensity. Fruit sources are Cramant Choully Oger (all Grand Crus) plus Cuis and Vertus (both 1er Crus). Disgorged: September 2015. (Drink between 2016-2028)

The 2008 Oenophile Extra Brut offers an invitingly clear bright and fresh bouquet of crisp apples lemons brazil nuts and grated hazelnuts along with some hints of herbs and flowers. On the palate this is a very elegant firm fresh and minerally accentuated Champagne of with a good grip and an animating citric finish. It is a crisp elegant refined and a really stimulating aperitif on a really high level. Beautifully structured and mineral I just can't get enough!
