Densely aromatic, notes of brioche and baked apples. Creamy, rich texture but nothing heavy

Fabulous balance between a rich and opulent mouthfeel and razor-sharp acidity, this Blanc de Blancs shows aromas and flavors of lemon, oyster shells, subtle brioche, and a subtle floral touch. Extremely elegant and well proportioned, with a very long finish this should continue to gain in complexity for next 15 years.

Big for a BdB. Complex. Mellow yellow fruit and coconut toast.

Medium lemon colour . Fine persistent perlage . Quite exuberante, touch of candied orange and lemon peel , brown bread , roasted almonds , touch of honey . Quite rich but also vinous in the mouth . More strict and mineral after a while , lemon and oyster shell . Long and complex . Showing well now , but can last perhaps improve. In an excellent spot, now and for 5 to 7 years .

Bubbles are light and finessed. Wine could use some acid. A bit heavy on the lime and the chalk. Just ok.
