Traditional champagne blend of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Meunier. Straw gold color. Aromas of dried orchard fruit, white flowers and toasted bread and spices. Ripe dried apple, yellow plum, white peach, citrus and chalk flavors with distinctive pepper spice, mineral and smoky notes on the long and lasting finish. Mouth watering acidity and beautiful balance. Creamy texture and a frothy mousse. Clean and refreshing. Classic! Thanks Kase and Petey for sharing this bottle. — 2 months ago
Something for the Jasper Hill Farms, “Willoughby.”
I am not much for Brut these days. Prefer Extra Brut. But I had this 375ml left before I shifted gear’s.
Having said that, this is still very sound and consistent. Think I enjoyed it more once upon a time. It seems sweeter now having a steady stream of EB.
Nice mousse. Lemon, lime pulp w/ a bit flesh, Bosc pear, red apple, yellow stone fruits, tropical fruits, quince, ginger, whipped creams, graham cracker, nougat, light & soft volcanic minerals, nice chalk powder, sea fossils, gentle saline, yellow flowers & lilies with hints of jasmine, pleasant, lively acidity, good balance, structure-tension & a smartly polished elegant finish that lasts 90 seconds and long sets on white spice-ginger.
Excellent pair w/ Key Lime Tart.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity and tiny bubbles.
Dry and fruit forward on the palate with over ripened apples, light red fruits, limes, citrus, spices, light yeast, sea salt, light earth and herbs.
Long finish with limes.
This is a delicious Rosé Champagne. Elegant, and a tad over it's peak. Complex and interesting.
Good by itself as a sipping wine or with food.
