Just started sampling some of this producers craft. For its price point of around $40-$45, it delivers nice quality. 100% Pinot Meunier.

The body shows nice round mousse and fine bubbles. Some green apple, touch of apple juice, pineapple with soft, ripe pulp to dried pineapple, grapefruit with pith, white stone fruits, tropical melons, some lemon/lime zest, touch of honey notes, orange peel, light caramel, vanillin bean, soft yeast notes, bread dough, sea spray, powdered limestone & chalkiness, faint hints of white spice that gets deposited on your tongue, nougat, yellow & white flowers, beautiful, round acidity with excellent; balance, tension, structure and a smartly polished finish that lasts nearly two-minutes.
