The sparkling wine Champagne Castelnau Hors Catégorie C.M. 1993 NV from the winery Champagne Castelnau has been rated in 2021 by Anne Krebiehl MW with 93 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape varieties Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, Chardonnay from the region Champagne in France.
An initial whiff of smoke soon blends into the creamy vanilla overtone of oak. The palate immediately confirms the oak impression which caresses the wonderfully strait-laced, linear and lemony brightness that is so inherent in the wine. It is a lovely juxtaposition of energetic, driven freshness and mellowing, rounded oak softness. They are distinct but in an engaging embrace. A.K.
