Nutty biscuits & a touch of marzipan with a fresh note of grated lemon peel. Ripe green apples underneath. And a whiff of verbena.
On the palate this is surprisingly (for a BdB) focused & precise. Fresh acidity, nice froth, a tart mouthfeel (slight tannins?). with fresh lemons & crunchy tart apples + a hint of a brioche note. Good length & persistent tiny bubbles.
Low dosage, too low perhaps?
