Apple and citrus mix with red berry suggestions on the nose. Hint of good funk and savory/ meaty quality. Cabbage patch kids and green apple candy on the palate. Yeasty, long prickly finish. Powerful and light; almost reminiscent of Dom. Disgorged 21, base 18.

A little tart for me. Maybe more in line for a lawnmower bubbles category. BTG

Very well made, but lacking the pronounced autolytic character that I love in so many other Champagnes. Disgorged October 2020. 2017 base wine.

Degorgeret i sept 20, men baseret på 18-årgangen bøffet op med 30 pct ældre vin solera-style. Dosage: 2 pct. Super sprød, ren, kalket, syrerig stil. Citrus og grønne æbler. Meget elegant.

Continually come back to this as the best value Champagne in the $50 price range.
