Very high toned, pretty and detailed. Fine mousse, electric acidity. Crisp minerality and great structure. Leaner than other vintages, pulsing with life. Still young. Exceptional

Epitome of champagne and Chardonnay. White florals. Mineral and slate. Concentrated fruit wrapped in piercing acidity.

A wonderfully detailed and fine front palate. Fine acidity. Amazing structure and depth. Awesome stuff.

Closed. Hazelnut, honeycomb, brioche. Probably will be great in a decade but was outdone tonight by the grand cuvée. Imho.

US premiere at Effervescence LA 2018 . Wow! Precise and laser focused. Beautifully balanced with a long finish. One of the best young Champagnes I’ve ever had. Obviously a baby now, but this will grow to be a legend.
