Champagne Louis Dousset Brut Assemblage Grand Cru

品飲筆記：酒液呈淡金色，細緻綿密的泡沫帶出烘焙與酵母的香氣——麵包皮、奶油布里歐修和微烘堅果香，接著有乾蘋果、粉紅柑橘與一抹紅果的清新。口感偏乾，酸度明亮而俐落，帶有輕微果皮的爽感與細緻奶油感，餘韻悠長且帶些酒體的蒸餾感。
酒莊與釀造：Louis Dousset 注重田間細節與傳統工法，這款以特級園果實與大量老酒調配，採用傳統法長時間與酒泥接觸，強調酵香與層次感。有報導指出使用約37%老酒並在2023年3月脫塞，且屬極低劑量或零劑量風格，口味乾淨、純淨。
葡萄園與風土：果實來自特級園的白堊地質，日照與排水良好，土壤礦物性明顯，帶出酒款的清爽與結構。輕鬆喝法建議冰鎮後開瓶稍候十多分鐘，能讓酵母與果香層次慢慢攤開。適合海鮮、燻鮭與微油脂料理搭配。喝起來既精緻又有鄉土感，適合想找有細緻酵香與明快酸度風格的朋友。

Tasting Note: Pale light-golden with a fine, creamy mousse. Aromas of bread crust, toasted brioche, raw walnut and dried apple give way to pink citrus, raspberry and gentle plum notes. On the palate it's bone-dry and pithy, with a fine creaminess and bright, incisive acidity that keeps flavors lifted; the finish is long and vinous.
Producer & Winemaking: Louis Dousset assembles this Grand Cru non-vintage from reserve stocks (Suckling notes ~37% reserve), vinified in the traditional method with extended autolytic ageing. Recently disgorged (March 2023 in one report) and presented with very low or zero dosage, the wine showcases precise mousse, low dosage purity and autolytic complexity.
Vineyard & Style: Sourced from Grand Cru sites typical of Champagne’s chalky soils, the wine reflects terroir drive and a classic, restrained style — focused on freshness, texture and toast-driven secondary aromas. Serve well-chilled; no decant needed beyond a short open time to let aromatic layers lift.
