A finely knit version that glides across the palate, this elegant blanc de blancs offers vibrant acidity layered with ripe Dijon pear, toast, pastry cream and candied lemon zest.
A markedly floral-infused nose offers up primarily notes of green apple and lemon zest along with background wisps of yeast and quinine. There is very good complexity to the vibrant, even racy flavors that possess a moderately fine effervescence before culminating in a crisp, moderately dry and citrusy finish. This is really quite good and I like the style.
A nicely captured reductive edge here, this holds white peach and apple aromas fresh with dried white flowers and a very gentle nutty, cashewy thread. The palate's bright, creamy and fruity; it throws big fruit flavors upwards with crunchy acidity. Drink now.
The bouquet offers up a classic blend of pear, lemon, chalky minerality, bread dough and a topnote of spring flowers. On the palate the wine is crisp, full-bodied and nicely focused, with refined mousse, lovely focus and balance and a long, zesty finish.
The Blanc de Blancs is exceptional: medium bodied, intense and complex in flavor (pineapple, toast, pear, lemon, honey, roasted nut), with excellent balance, and a crisp, persistent finish. First rate.
A fresh, minerally Champagne, lacy in texture and offering an open-knit mix of lemon curd, poached apricot, fleur de sel and biscuit flavors. Moderate finish.
A bright, finely tuned Blanc de Blancs, with a subtle tang of salinity and flavors of lemon meringue pie, glazed apricot, pink grapefruit granita and blanched almond. Creamy and mouthwatering, with a lingering smoke-tinged finish.
Pale yellow-gold. Fragrant melon, white peach and tangerine aromas are complicated by smoky lees and floral honey. On the palate, supple melon and pit fruit flavors are energized by smoky minerality. Shows a gently sweet touch and finishes with excellent cut, clarity and persistence.
A bright and lively blanc de blanc, with a clean-cut mineral note underscoring the poached apple, toasted almond, apple blossom and candied ginger flavors, accented by a soft and satiny mousse.
