Absolutely delicious! Creamy, rich and toasty. Actually, it tastes like a buttered English muffin.

The nose is pretty and pure, with fresh grapefruit, delicate red berries, and white flowers. The palate is approachable though it has nice tension to it, with orange pith, tangerine, bread dough, and a touch of saline. Slightly sweet. Deep straw-colored.

Popped yesterday, notes from today. Another spectacular showing, and this is better ln day 2 than day 1. On the nose: cranberry, rose, lemon oil, vanilla, and a hint of honey. On the palate: lovely acidity, lemon, cranberry, crushed stone...love that cool mineral core...then some tang and good density on the long finish. Very, very good.

Nice champagne, very smooth and light. Difficult to offend anyone with this one. Easy, light finish.

少し熟成香あるか。
ふくよかな中に、しっかりと酸味もある。

Remarkably rich and precise, perfect balance of fruit and non-fruit. Impeccable structure. Bursts of caramel and Marc de champagne. Finish goes on for three minutes and beyond. An outstanding effort from a producer at the top of their game.
