Been almost a year since I’ve had this. Super mineral and yeasty nose. Lemon drop as well but insanely mineral. Palate has lovey mousse and intense yeasty cut. Clean and so pure. Not too complex but utterly delicious.

Been a minute since I’ve had this one. Yeasty nose with lime zest and very high toned. Loads of minerals. Meyer lemon. Apple skins. Great complexity. Lovely cut and sap with good lemony and yeasty mineral inflected fruit. Almost lemon drop on the finish with minerals. Very elegant and excellent but not intrusive structure. Drinkable and will age. Great. Very juicy and long.

Confit lemon and orange deliver a compelling and intense citrus profile. Great value.

Primarily citrus fruit on the nose with little autolytic character. Mousse dissipates quickly. Dry, crisp, and focused on the palate with only 12% alcohol. Base wine made from 100% Chardonnay fermented in oak barrels with only partial malolactic fermentation. Bargain at $40 for grower champagne.
