Bright nose with tropical notes of underripe pineapple, lemon and lime. Lemon bread, white mushroom and chive. Silky mousse that leaps into lime the pineapple, lemon verbena, lime pith and creamy lemon. The yeast is there around the edges, but shapes more than defines. Textural perfection.

Lemon seed, lemon oil, grape leaf, sage and lime nose, orange, lemon and lime pith entry is pronounced then softens to zest then ethereally creamy dichotomy astounds. Lightest white pepper that strikes a longing posture on infinite legs.

Fantastic, pinnacle #champagne - incredibly fresh nose, lots of energy with lemon, pear on the nose, touch of brioche plus wet stone. Fine bubbles, definitely felt like this was still too young and would have developed additional complexity given another decade. #cristal — 5 months ago

Toasty sesame nose shows chive and lemon fluency streaking through yeast and olive-bacon fat. Cream-pith brioche entry bursts with sinewy citrus-chalk strands and mineral percussions. Tongue and mouth coating dryness that delivers in abundance! Excellent!

What a darling #champagne! Nose fairly closed when cold, touches of yeasty notes. Palate is incredible, dosage is perfect, so much verve and energy with fine bubbles on the palate. Need to pick up more of this. #costcowines — 5 months ago
Golden and perfect. White pepper nose shows rich piths of lime and grapefruit, underripe pineapple and a yeasty monolith of frozen lemon. Minerality central as silken threads of chive and celeriac streak like lightning across lemon zest, oil and pith fields to clementine reduction drops. Ethereal and transportive medicine here!

Nose of cherry and lemon, underripe strawberry and raspberry; brioche. Cherry tartness evaporates into lemon pith and peel, lemongrass, lime and tarragon.
