A delightful “vin effervescent” made by a Champagne family from vines just outside of Champagne-proper (Aube to be specific). It’s balanced and light on its feet. A very nice mousse. White peach and white flowers with the slightest whiff of brioche. Actually, the most striking thing about this wine is the color which is very nearly copper, yet this is 100% Chardonnay. A touch expensive for something not technically Champagne but the quality is truly there. Charming. Drink now.
