Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Étienne Calsac’s 2021 vintage-based NV Blanc de Blancs L'Échappée Belle, disgorged in May 2024 with a dosage of four grams per liter, combines the broad-shouldered musculature and amplitude of Montgenost in Côte de Sézanne (half of the blend) with the tauter, acid-laden profile of Grauves in Côte des Blancs and the texture of Bisseuil in Grande Vallée. Defined by the incisive base vintage, complemented by 20% of reserve wines from 2020, it unfolds from the glass with aromas of citrus fruit, white flowers and pear. Medium-bodied, pillowy and underpinned by bright acidity, it concludes with a delicately chalky finish. Vinified mostly in tank, with about 30% in oak, it represents half of the grower’s production.
