Beschreibung

- 93 Punkte MEININGERS SOMMELIER (Ausgabe 4/2023): „frisch geschnittenes Heu, Kamille, Wildkräuter, auch frische Gartenkräuter, Borretsch; feine nussige Art, leicht rauchig, sehr gute Länge“

- GERHARD EICHELMANN: "Der Brut Millesime Grand Cru besteht aus 90 % Pinot Noir und 10 % Chardonnay und bleibt mindestens fünf Jahre auf der Hefe. Er zeigt viel Konstanz über die jahrgänge hinweg, weist aber doch deutliche Jahrgangstypizitäten auf.
Die Champagner von Paul Bara sind kraftvoll und konzentriert, immer geprägt vom Pinot Noir, Pinot Noir aus Bouzy. Sie zeigen eine bewundernswerte Konstanz über die jahre hinweg, sind dominant und nachhaltig, wirken immer sehr jugendlich, schon der Brut ohne Jahrgang, Brut Reserve genannt, zeigt beeidruckende Qualität."

- PETER LIEM champagneguide.net: "Pinot noir dominates in the vintage brut as well, usually comprising 90 percent of the blend, with ten percent of chardonnay added for finesse. While the vintage wines increase in complexity, each offering their own individual character, they share the same combination of generosity and harmony as the non-vintage cuvées.

Paul Bara’s champagnes are classic examples of Bouzy, with a full body and an ample, fruity ripeness thanks to pinot noir grown on the village’s warm, south-facing slopes. At the same time they demonstrate an UNUSUAL REFINEMENT AND FINESSE, and despite the absence of malolactic, these champagnes are rarely aggressive - they tend to feel velvety in their depth of fruit and seamless in their integration of components from beginning to end. All of Bara’s wines are pure Bouzy and 100-percent grand cru, since they own no other parcels."

- Magazin SommelierS International: „Color: clear and star bright, with an intense golden color and gentle coppery sheen, delicate bubbles. Nose: generous, with an attractive autolytic character upfront with toast, hazelnuts and biscuit, comple-mented by fresh ripe yellow pear, quince and yellow plum. Aeration reveals scents of smoke and an earthy chalky scent. Palate: great freshness in combination with generous body and well-balanced juicy acidity. The midpalate is juicy and dense, showing intense ripe yellow plums, quince and apricots. Very creamy mousse giving a polished texture and a clean and crisp finish. Comment: still very young but well-balanced with great freshness and concentration. Excellent substance for long term ageing.“

Notizen des Weinguts:	The reputation of Bouzy emanates largely from its Pinot Noirs which are ripe, rich and very expressive. All of Bara’s fields face the South, providing perfect conditions for the ripening of the grapes across 30 of the foremost locations in Bouzy. With all of these exceptional conditions combined, the terroir of Bouzy is exemplified in the wines produced. The chalk present under our vineyard helps to drain the soil of excess water and gives the grapes necessary minerals. VINTAGE INFORMATION A record amount of rain fell during the spring 2016, which was also very fresh, late frosts will be the cause of damages. Finally summer came with July and this time, it became a record of lack of water, and a heat record for the end of august. The vintage 2016 brings complexity and richness, as much as the weather during this year. TASTING NOTES Made only in years of exceptional harvest, this wine has a very nice pale golden color and a delicate effervescence. The nose is complex and young, fruity with some plum notes. The palate begins with a fresh and powerful attack, a fruity feel. Very fresh, crispy with a chalky minerality and a long aftertaste. FOOD PAIRINGS Duck magrets, Parmesan 18 months
