Der Amerikaner PETER LIEM, der in der Champagne lebt, ist zur Zeit einer zwei/drei führenden Verkoster für Champagner weltweit. Er vergibt Höchstnoten für Godmé‘s Einzellagen-Champagner. Ich freue mich Ihnen diese Raritäten anbieten zu können:

GODMÉ Les Alouettes Saint Bets 2004 @ 62,50 Euro (83,33 €/l)
Blanc de Blancs Brut 1er Cru

- 94 Punkte Robert Parkers WINE ADVOCATE: "Godmes 2004 Brut Chardonnay Les Alouettes Saint Bets Premier Cru is just as impressive this year as it was last year. Lemon, pastry, savory herbs and crushed rocks all jump from the glass in this precise, beautifully articulated wine. The 2004 is all about the energy, precision and pure tension of Chardonnay allied to the structure and cool bracing minerality of the year as expressed in this site in Villers-Marmery. Amazingly, the 2004 is still quite youthful and tightly wound. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2020."
- *** Höchstnote von Champagner-Spezialist PETER LIEM: "The inaugural vintage of Godmé's new single-vineyard champagne, this is pure chardonnay from a parcel in Villers-Marmery, close to the Verzy border. It was largely fermented in barrel: Godmé allowed an oenologist friend to convince him to add ten percent of a wine that was aged in oak but vinified in tank, and he regrets this, saying that future editions will be 100-percent barrel-fermented. The vines here are 45 years old, giving this an uncommon intensity of expression, and indeed, it's dominated by its minerality, with the fruit flavors seeming almost incidental. It unfolds with a lovely tension and grace, feeling flowery and lithe, and its finish is exceptionally long and chalky, showing a subtle detail and an elegant finesse. This is highly impressive, and a superb expression of terroir."

GODMÉ Les Champs St. Martin 2005 @ 65,00 Euro (86,67 €/l)

Blanc de Noirs Pinot Noir Brut Grand Cru

- Höchstnote *** von Champagner-Spezialist PETER LIEM: "This is the first release of this single-vineyard pinot noir, from a chalky parcel in Verzenay planted with vines that are nearly 30 years old. It's remarkably subtle and detailed, infused by a savory, almost flinty minerality, and while its red-fruit flavors are ripe and fragrant, they maintain an admirable elegance and poise, feeling primary and fresh rather than veering towards the jammy or dried fruit flavors that are typical of this vintage. Its shape on the palate is sleek and lithe, thanks to racy acidity, and the finish is terrifically complex and exceptionally long, unfolding in delicately nuanced layers of aroma. This is one of the finest 2005s I've seen so far. Last tasted: 11/12"

GODMÉ Les Romaines 2005 @ 65,00 Euro (86,67 €/l)

Blanc de Noirs Pinot Meunier Brut 1er Cru

- ** mit Potential für *** von Champagner-Spezialist PETER LIEM: "As a meunier counterpart to Les Alouettes St-Bets and Les Champs St-Martin, Godmé has bottled this single-vineyard champagne, from a highly calcareous parcel in the village of Villedommange. Its aromas of apple, apricot and guava are ripe and richly fragrant, showing a subtle nuance and complexity that is sure to grow with further time in the cellar. While the fruit is generous and assertive, it's pinned down by prominent notes of chalk, feeling resonant, harmonious and complete on the finish. This is an impressive debut, and it's satisfying to see another high-quality champagne being made entirely from the meunier grape. Last tasted: 11/12"

Ab einer Bestellung von drei Flaschen, auch gemischt, berechne ich keine Versandkosten innerhalb von Deutschland, ab 6 Flaschen nach Österreich und Benelux. Die Lieferzeit beträgt ca. 3-6 Werktage. Die Preise sind inklusive Mwst angegeben.
