All around amazing QPR. Fresh, intense, with depth, character & finesse, fuller bodied due to 70% Pinot Noir, citrus, toasted almond, yeast, brioche, spices, intense minerality and long finish. 70% Pinot Noir, rest Chardonnay all Premier Cru, ageing 10 months in large oak vats, no MLF, 9g/L dosage. Disgorged June 2018.

NV. Classy and plays it down the middle. Checks a lot of boxes. Balanced. Great length of finish. Bubbles Baby Bear just right. 3.24.23.
