A remarkably pretty gleaming gold color with persistent bubbles. Everything about the nose is natural, fresh, and alluring. Apple is dominate in the beginning with lemons and limes developing. Brioche, chalk, and a hint of spice round things out.
It’s truly amazing just how ready all of these 2012’s are. They are all shining like diamonds immediately. Grower producers are working magic. 60/40 CH/PN, this is a very traditional champagne but elevated. The acidity is wild and beautiful at the moment and will calm down with time. Even on day 2 this retains that freshness and refinement.
The palate showcases some really nice, vibrant citrus fruit. Grapefruit, cherries, and wild strawberries up front. Peaches and cheese with minerality and a little smoke. Definitely ready now but built to last. Precise and creamy. Very nice.
