This is a superb vintage Champagne. The colour is a brilliant, golden yellow with a fine and persistent mousse. On the nose, there are notes of freshly baked brioche, apricot, and honey, with a subtle hint of roasted nuts. The palate is opulent and rich, with flavours of ripe pear, citrus, and pastry that are balanced by a bright acidity and a mineral-driven structure. The wine has a long and elegant finish, with a touch of salinity that adds to its depth.
