Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Étienne Calsac’s 2020 vintage-based NV Blanc de Noirs Val l’Hermite derives from a south-facing lieu-dit of the same name planted to Pinot Noir in the village of Bligny in Aube, characterized by Kimmeridgian marl soil with many small stones inside. Fermented and matured for seven months in oak and disgorged in February 2024 without dosage, it’s slightly pink-hued (colored by the skins of the red grapes) and flamboyant, soaring from the glass with a bouquet of strawberry, mirabelle plum, orange zest and spices. Full-bodied, with an enveloping mid-palate and rich core of fruit, it’s underpinned by succulent acids and concludes with a perfumed, expansive finish. Given the more southerly origins and more oxidative tendencies of Pinot Noir, it’s one of the more open, charming wines in the range.
