Wonderful, crisp, multi-faceted BdB for the aperitif. If you like limey Puligny like drive in your Chardonnay based Champagne this is for you... Too bad their are so few bottles!

Pale golden yellow color with abundant pin prick bubbles and rich brioche, baked apple, floral, and a hint of butterscotch aromas. On the palate, it's dry, medium-full bodied with rich mixed baked apples, a bit of ruby grapefruit flavors, wonderful acidity and minerality. Dosed at 6g/LLingering finish.

Few gifts have done as much to loosen me up as @Fred Fox's present of a Champagne saber. Now I have learned to #saberit and enjoy life! @Michel Loriot makes one of the few pure Chardonnay Champagnes that does not undergo malo, so they keep it for many years before releasing it. I love the clean earth, vibrancy and surprising texture of this great Champagne. It was perfect with a first course of Dungeness crab cakes!
