Biscuity, cranberries, christmas. Citrusy, yeasty bright fruit. Not quite the staying power of the greatest champagne but a 9.6 up front. Base ‘13.

Like a beautiful piece of butter cake. Briochey yet super bright and fresh. Even better after a few days.

This is a blend of wines from several different villages spanning vintages over several years. Crisp, fine mousse with steady flow of bubbles, 100% Chard! Citrus, herb and biscuit aromas. Fresh fruit flavors of peach, apples and lemons, smooth and dry. Lingering mineral finish ending with elegance. Nice! A Fav!
