Nice soft mousse body, yellow peach, tropical melons, pineapple, some lemon meringue, lime zest, slightly bitter apple cider, whipped cream, hard chalkiness, alluvial limestone, saline, sea fossils, bread crust, yeastiness, yellow florals, racey acidity, nicely balanced & structured with a finish that lasts 90 seconds.

This is a “Nature” Blanc de Blanc and bone dry. I used to not enjoy Nature’s so much not long ago. Then, I gravitated to EB’s and once that got put into gear, Nature’s came naturally
The first sip is delicious. It starts with bruised pear/red apple, married to a strong presence of volcanic minerals, bitty, gritty chalk/limestone and elevated white spice, tropical melons follow-yellow watermelon, not very ripe mango, some pineapple, white stone fruits, green apple follows & circles the above, graham cracker crust, vanillin, caramel, biscuits, sea spray to saline, sea fossils-oyster shells, dry river stone, yellow & white flowers set in greens, hints of jasmine, fruit blossoms, crisp acidity, incredibly well balanced/toned/structured, great length w/ a beautiful finish that lasts two-minutes and long sets on spice & minerals.
Beautiful Champagne that will benefit from 5 plus yrs of cellaring. — 4 days ago
