This has aromas of dried pineapple, lemon, ripe pear, hazelnut and biscotti. It’s medium-bodied with vibrant acidity and a focused and subtly saline palate. Silky bubbles and a sleek, flavorful finish. Excellent length, too. Dry. 100% Chardonnay. Base vintage 2016 [...]. 6g/l dosage. Drink now.

Green florals, sage, lemon cream. Smoky grilled hazelnuts. A dash of salty pickle brine. Crunchy apples. Lots and lots of tightly wound, saline and lime-pickle tang. Silk-and-lace bubbles. A really, really interesting champagne! A real sense of story here, from start to mouth-drawing finish. (TC)
