Really outstanding. Nose of vanilla pastry cream, like breaking open a fresh eclair or something. Full rounded palate finishes with red apple skins and buttery brioche.

04/18 Disg, 1.8 g/l dosage. Should have read notes here before popping. The mousse is pretty rough right now...decant if you're drinking now...definitely young and needs plenty of time. On the nose: lovely vanilla cream, lemon, soft toasted hazelnut. On the palate: intense acidity, good density, but mousse is just over-the-top..soft grapefruit and good length. Don't touch again for at least 5 years.
