I think I’ve had their N/V, not vintage.

Big co2, rich, ripe mouthfeel w/ excellent mousse.

Ripe, white dominate peach with some yellow, pineapple juice, green apple, tropical melons, lime/lemon zest, heather honey notes, caramel hues, vanillin, cream, some nougat, medium white spice-ginger, very light chalk powder & limestone, sea spray, bread dough, yellow flowers, jasmine & spring flowers, big, racy, big acidity with an elegant, rich, ripe, balanced , softly tensioned & well knitted finish that lasts 90 seconds.

100% Blanc de Blanc w/ 5g dosage which is right where I like it...4-5 grams.

This should lay down another 3-5 years.
