A complex Champagne for people who loves quality and who know how to enjoy it :) Very vinous, fresh, focused, persistant with a light dosage 3,30g/l - this is why I love the Champagnes from this biodynamic producer who owns some of the best Pinot meunier plots in the appellation - a bottle to set to the table and enjoy with some great food 😃

Any day ending with a bottle of this wine is a good day. Consistently gorgeous, intense, sophisticated and delicious wine. Wet leaves, wet cellar, Jerez, chalk, mushrooms, bruised apples, honey and nuts. Perfectly balanced, multilayered and persistent. You wake up with every taste bud remembering the taste.

God. Mineralig, oxiderad. Påminner om franskt cider. Små fina bubblor.

Åt med apelsinchoklad, chark o skorpor. Gott.
